If you are a White Supremacist or Neo Nazi carrying torches, yelling "Blood and Soil" along with an array of Anti Semitic, Anti Black, and Anti Hispanic remarks, you have the understanding of the current President of the United States who believes in your first amendment rights.
When you are a black National Football League Quarterback who quietly takes a knee during the national anthem just before game time, you are, according to the current occupant of the White House, a S.O.B. and should be fired for exercising your first amendment rights.
We have to face the fact that we have a President who will defend to his last breath, reactionaries and racists. We have a little over three years to correct this and we do not have time to lose if we want to restore dignity and honor to the presidency. This should be the goal for Americans of whatever mainstream political persuasion. To those in the Republican Party. Drop this insult to humanity. Drop the sycophants and yes people who rise to his banner. BECOME THE PARTY OF LINCOLN, ROOSEVELT, AND EISENHOWER AGAIN. It is not too late.
