Trump and Compassion

This is a reminder.

Donald Trump is as much a human as I am, as you are. Perhaps he behaves in some ways that you don’t like, or don’t support, or wouldn’t have done yourself.

The past years memes, essays, headlines, articles, tweets and interviews, have competed in being mean in the most articulate way.

Think about that, a competition in being mean.

It seems that there’s a narrative that thinks that simply “removing” people like Donald Trump will fix all of our problems. I’m sorry to say, it won’t. More disturbing is it that I never meet anyone with compassion for Donald Trump. And I don’t understand why there’s so few that feel sorry for him.
He is a human as you are, as I am.

Be kind.
