Stephen Lentner: Country faces rough ride

Country faces rough ride

A few wealthy, white men are now in charge of our country. Well, not 100 percent white, but Ben Carson says slaves were “immigrants” and “poverty is a state of mind,” so he’s thinking like these rich white guys.

They are making decisions which affect the citizens of America and the world, most of whom are not wealthy, white or men. Their indirectly stated aims through proposed legislation and edict, include a polluted planet for tomorrow’s children, loss of health care for 24 million people and a billion dollar windfall of taxpayer dollars for their already wealthy cohorts.

Their leader, his family and his minions are under investigation for possible ethics violations, disclosure failures, security leaks to, and illegal collusion with, the Russians. The “tweetster” has found historic new lows in presidential popularity and appears to be over his head in every aspect of national governance.

This is all “bigly” bad for our our country and “yuuuuge” for our enemies around the globe. Strap yourselves in. It’s going to be a rough ride.
