Who is to blame for the situation this country is in? I feel it may be the Democrats who became Republican.
The people who lost a job when the mills closed and said there is nothing else I can do. The people who
were no longer needed because of automation who said I might as well give up. The people who decided
that their neighborhood was unlivable because people of different ethnic origin, religion or race bought
homes there. The people who changed to conservatives because the liberals wanted to take away some
their gun rights. After all their guns defined who they were. Then a snake oil sales man came along and
told them that he would make America great again. Bring the mills back, deport all the immigrants and anything else
your heart desires. Trust me he promised. True Democrats are progressives who accept that you cant roll
back time. As the world changes so must the people who live in it. I only hope these people come to that
realization before this country becomes a third world country, or worse, a dictatorship.
