Hello WRITE ON READERS,

My blog today will be different from my short stories, which are fictional, and memoirs, which reflect and share my experiences from childhood to the present.

As a retired senior, I have experienced many things in my life and learned what is good and what is bad. I learned to treat all people with respect regardless of their color, creed, or living conditions, and where they lived. I am accepting and welcoming to all people, even those with the most difficult of personalities. I have known the very rich and the very poor.

In fact, I spent many years of my working life helping people who were struggling to get from point A to point B. And that included people who were mentally ill, and adolescent boys and girls who had a rough start to their lives. And people who lived in poverty in places like Camden, New Jersey. While I worked with Wilson Goode, I made every effort to find resources for them so that they could afford to remain in their homes, have food on the table, access healthcare, and ensure their children had access to education.

After I retired, I decided that I needed a break from Social Services, and I have been volunteering at an animal sanctuary here in North Carolina for the past nine years. In addition, I started writing short stories and memoirs in my blog, WRITE ON. I have written over 200 stories and memoirs in the past nine years, since my retirement.

But at this point, while our country is going through a terrible transition from a Democracy, where we all have rights as American Citizens, our present leader, Donald Trump, has chosen to do the unthinkable at every turn. Every single day, a new nightmare for us to confront. I will never understand why the Republicans chose this man, this low-life, this spoiled rich man to represent and preside over, not once, but twice, now we find ourselves under his thumb yet again. For me, it feels like an ongoing nightmare, I kid you not.

I will never forget the vision of Trump on the internet, coming from the meeting he had with Putin, he looked like a whipped dog. I absolutely knew that somehow, Putin had Trump under his thumb and that we, the American citizens and the rest of the world, were going to suffer the consequences, and it would not be good; in fact, it was going to be an ongoing nightmare. And that is precisely what has happened.

And what I will never, never understand is why, why would anyone in their right mind, vote for this low-life not once, but twice. And here we all are in a recurring nightmare. Trump has every intention of destroying our Democracy, our country, and cares absolutely nothing for we Americans except for the wealthy ones, whom I do not doubt that he will nickel and dime to death. Which serves them right as far as I am concerned because they care nothing for all the rest of us, nor do they care that they are just as guilty as Trump is, as he destroys all that is good in America.

And let’s consider some of the “so-called” experts that Trump has placed in our government. Robert S. Kennedy, let me be clear: this man does not hold a medical degree by any stretch of the imagination. He has no business telling Americans not to get vaccinated; he needs to keep his lying mouth shut before he kills people with his bulshit.

Honestly, I would have to write a book to spell out all the things that Trump is and has done to our democracy; his main goal is to end it. He is Putin’s puppet if any of you haven’t realized that yet, it’s time to wake up, people. 

In addition, one of Trump’s promises to American Citizens when he ran for his second term was that all Americans would have access to healthcare. Did that happen, people? “Well, hell no, it didn’t happen. In fact, healthcare access legislation, such as the “One Big Beautiful Bill,” could lead to millions losing health insurance coverage due to cuts to Medicaid and changes to the Affordable Care Act. Trump doesn’t give a good god damm about American Citizens’ health care. All he cares about is connecting with the rich Americans. President-elect Donald Trump has assembled the wealthiest presidential administration in modern history, with at least 13 billionaires set to take on government posts.

They include a wrestling magnate, a private space pioneer, a New York real estate developer, the heir to a small appliance empire, and the wealthiest man on the planet — with several being donors and close personal friends of the incoming president.

In total, the combined net worth of the wealthiest members of his administration could surpass $460 billion, including Department of Government Efficiency co-head Elon Musk — whose net worth of more than $400 billion exceeds the GDP of mid-sized countries.

So, have any parts of your lives improved because of the things Trump has done, including getting rid of Medicare and Obamacare? They have certainly not improved the lives of anyone in our country so far, have they?????

Let’s go back in time for a moment. Do any of you remember Trump’s response to COVID-19? He told us that we shouldn’t let it control our lives. The U.S. death toll from the coronavirus eclipsed 400,000 on Tuesday in the waning hours in office for President Donald Trump, whose handling of the crisis has been judged by public health experts a singular failure.

President Donald Trump signed his domestic policy bill into law on July 4, 2025. The legislation makes sweeping changes to U.S. healthcare.

The bill is expected to reduce healthcare spending by roughly $1.1 trillion and result in 11.8 million people losing health insurance over the next decade, according to estimates from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office. So, people, what do you think of Trump’s plan to cut health care for almost 12 million Americans? Which is 1/5 of our nation’s population. Does that seem like someone who gives a good god-damn about Americans? Hell no, he only cares about the rich, let’s face it he is not the President for ALL THE PEOPLE, only the freaking rich Americans. Stop fooling yourselves. It remains to be seen whether Trump will cut Social Security and Medicare. But, people, I am not holding my breath because Trump has proven himself to be a liar and a manipulator. I don’t believe a word out of his lying mouth. We will have to wait and see what happens, probably in the very near future.

I will be writing another blog about what Trump is going to do to us in the near future. Trust that I will tell you what is really going on, and anot the bullshit that Trump says.
