Donald Trump heralds an agenda that creates division, creates distrust and creates fear. That is why he is not welcome here.
The leader of the free world promotes values that are anything but free.
The leader of the free world says if you can’t get what you want by asking, you grab it and take it anyway.
⁃ Donald Trump teaches hate
⁃ Donald Trump teaches blame
⁃ Donald Trump teaches grudge
⁃ And to hold on to that blame and direct that hate
Donald Trump stands for a meritocracy where it’s ok to hate women, it’s ok to hate immigrants, it’s ok to hate the weak and the less fortunate and it’s ok to blame everybody else.
Well that’s not ok.
Donald Trump is not welcome here.
Say it loud. Say it clear. Donald Trump’s not welcome here.
Say it loud. Say it clear. Donald Trump’s not welcome here.
