Back in March, President Donald Trump signed an executive order targeted at the Smithsonian Institution that began as follows: “Over the past decade, Americans have witnessed a concerted and widespread effort to rewrite our Nation’s history, replacing objective facts with a distorted narrative driven by ideology rather than truth.”

    The institutions insist he’ll be gone in 4 years and will go back to normal.

      Even if the Drumpfster is gone in four years, it will probably take 100+ years to undo the dammage he did to the US and especially it’s reputation.

      Just look at what he has done so far, and realize that he has eight times longer remaining in this mandate period.

        We HOPE only 8 times longer.

          Actually, some of us hope for much less than that.

      We can’t attack him apparently, but what if we make an organized effort against anyone who caves?
