I want to get this off my chest.
I'm scared to voice my opinions about Trump on social media. This is pretty much the only outlet where I vent somewhat freely. I'm scared to give Likes to posts that criticize Trump and this administration. I'm a little scared of losing my Tourist visa. I'm very scared of putting my sons' visas in jeopardy. I worry that their job prospects will be vaporized by random decisions. Logic would seem to indicate that this is impossible...and yet, I worry.
I am as pro-American as you can get in Latin America. I believe in the ideals of American democracy as a beacon of values that we should aspire to...freedom of expression, freedom of worship, freedom to protest, majority rule, minority rights. I'm still amazed at the utter stupidity of the electorate. I'm still amazed how the Dems totally botched this.
The only time Ive ever suppressed my opinions is in Nicaragua so as to not put family in harm's way. I can't believe I have that same fear now.
