It’s 3:45 and raining as POTUS motorcade leaves the Trump National Golf Course. A small group of demonstrators, including a few dogs stood outside the club. One held a sign that read: “Trump should be caged.†Another read: “We care.†Local law enforcement blocked demonstrators as motorcade passed.
There is nowhere for Trump to hide. The protesters are going to follow him and the people who work for his administration everywhere. Trump is going to face these people every day for the rest of his presidency. Trump’s actions have tapped into a well of outrage that is not going to go away. The President Of The United States can’t abuse children and then expect to go play a round of golf as if nothing had happened.
The American people are going to hound Trump wherever he goes. There is no escape.
A wave of American decency will cleanse this country of the stain that is the Trump presidency.
