Beware what could happen

A country is made up of two basic things — people and the environment — land, air and water. The former administration made these things a priority, providing access to affordable healthcare, respecting ALL people, working hard to create a healthy environment using renewable energy and protecting the National Parks, to name a few.

The present administration has shown outright rude disregard for foreign leaders, has publicly made derogatory remarks about people in the military, is arbitrarily turning back legislation passed by the Biden administration that benefited everyone--”just because.” The National Parks have become a target for oil and gas drilling and shuttered coal mines could be started up again. The pollution created by these industries causes devastating health issues, very often impacting disadvantaged people the most.

Work done by the Democrats was not “sensational news” but it was generally good for all the country. Trump cares only about himself, is a bully and I’m guessing likes to picture himself as a dictator. Watch out America, it could happen.
