"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public" - Theodore Roosevelt [1200x800]
I'm certain I'm not alone on this but....I'm extremely dissatisfied with the state of our government. It's disheartening and exhausting to keep up with the nonsense.
This quote reminds us of we do as Americans...and how the foundation of our democracy was established. Truth and liberty.
Trump, at his worst, is only exacerbating a disillusioned mentality that many people hold. Once we fix the problem from the bottom-up, then the Executive's actions won't have such a devastating effect on our world.
“Therefore it is absolutely necessary that there should be full liberty to tell the truth about his acts, and this means that it is exactly necessary to blame him when he does wrong as to praise him when he does right. Any other attitude in an American citizen is both base and servile”. - Theodore Roosevelt - editorial in The Kansas City Star, on May 7, 1918
