My country has lost its way
No one can argue it hasn’t
What will make it right?
Should we stand up and fight?
Or just go on about our day?
We are awash in guns
States attempts to ensure citizen safety
Now undone
Women no longer in control
Of their own bodies
So hard to be hopeful
About what is to come
So many guns about
Mass shootings everywhere
Schools, churches, concerts, malls
Is it even safe to go out at all?
You are no longer the beautiful country
I once loved
It’s sad to see you now
Pride has been usurped
By pity
For we have lost so much…
US Author Nancy Klein in Spain 
I mourn for what we are losing.

It seems like ever since Trump was elected in 2016, life in the US has gone downhill fast.

It is a sad day. Feels like a slow motion coup. Corruption gain hold and democracy losing ground. Stupidity being blatant. We’re in a very sad and disturbing place. Denise

Yes, it’s terribly sad to lose rights we had for almost the last 50 years because of Trump’s Supreme Court picks. He has done tremendous damage to our country.

I hear you Nancy. I am shocked to the core too! What a retrograde step…..I feel that at this rate that the ‘dis’ United States of America will be sending out witch finders next, marrying off twelve year old girls and reintroducing slavery…….yes I feel that’s the way their politics are heading…..there will be a lot of people dusting off those white pointy hat so soon, if not already

Yes. It’s quite a nightmare that we are unable to wake up from, unfortunately!
