After being evicted-finally! – out of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, donald trump is still trying to act like he’s still President, or still relevant. He has opened an “Office Of the Former President,” that would “be responsible for managing President Trump’s correspondence, public statements, appearances, and official activities to advance the interests of the United States and to carry on the agenda of the Trump Administration through advocacy, organizing, and public activism”; he has also floated the idea of forming his own political party, called “Patriot party” that would have no platform or agenda, other than worshiping trump.

Trump has been descending to the status of an unperson after his election. His accounts on Facebook, his precious Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube has been shut down; banks that have freely lent him money-Deutsche Bank, Signature, and two in Florida have cut him off; Banks United, a Florida bank that has held two money-market accounts, has closed these accounts.

The name of trump has become toxic in real estate; the Trump SoHo, a combination hotel and condominium complex, has been renamed The Dominick.

Now, trump faces impeachment for a second time, and we must stay on top of the senators for them to convict him. Racism and religious bigotry have existed in this country, but trump, by his rhetoric and his campaigns, have made it safe for racists and haters to emerge and act out, through violence, their hates. trump and his enablers MUST be held accountable for their crimes.
