Durham (click on this link to watch the video)
Today I happened to be in a waiting room when Sarah Huckabee Saunders was holding a press conference about the ending of DACA. I am so tired of the ridiculousness of Trump that I have stopped listening to him or his surrogates, but today I was trapped. The most insulting comment she made was that “All the unemployed African American and Hispanic Americans who are the same age as the DACA kids would like to have their jobs.” Really I could go on for hours about that statement.
With all the real problems, from hurricanes, impending debt ceiling, and the need for a budget, why he feels now is the time to announce the end of protecting people who were brought to this country as children and are for the most part contributing citizens I don’t know. Of course he lobbed it all over to Congress who is proudly said, “I have a 38% favorable rating and they only have a 10% favorable, I am doing better.” Hey, Buddy first amount idiots is no prize.
Instead of whining about all that is wrong in the world I want to highlight something cool that Russ sent to me and Carter in Berlin so she could show her friends where she is from. It is a video about Durham. I don’t the guy who made it. I don’t know why he made it. I don’t know if he got paid to make it, but I do know it is a wonderful representation of what our city is.
Instead of thinking about the idiots in Washington just spend a few moments looking at what is good in Durham. If you are from here be proud. If you aren’t come visit!
DACA’s EO had a sunset date.
Sooo well said! Sometimes it is all just too hard to believe.
