Comment from Gloria ....
A timely and important post, Jesse. Trump has to be regarded with great caution like a scorpion given that he has promised to reinstate a ban on military service for transgender people and block transition related care nationwide.
Members of the LGBTQ+ community should also be concerned about their rights under Trump given his love and admiration for Putin whose government recently expanded anti-LGBTQ laws in Russia.
Thank you for sharing. You are not a minority on FanStory.

Thanks, Gloria, for stopping by to scare the living daylights out of me. Comparing Trump to a scorpion is an apt statement and one I would not have considered before reading your review.
Although the things you say are true I still need to lean on hope that things will work out in the end. I am an optimist by nature.
Thanks for your support. I appreciate you making me aware of his cunning way. I know it is going to be a bumpy ride.

Comment from Wendy G
I hope that nothing goes wrong for your knee replacement. It's a frightful thing to contemplate that a president would be so uncaring as to diminish the rights and well-being of minority groups. However he is hungry for power, and seems to be a very vengeful person towards those who disagree with him. Thanks for sharing, and best wishes.

Thanks, Wendy, for your support. Yes, it would be frightful to see my health benefits taken away from me just as my surgery comes near.
I'll have to wait and see. It's hard to believe that my country voted again for him even though he committed so many crimes.
Wish me well, my friend.

Yes, I completely agree, Jesse. We need to pray and lean on each other for hope that God will continue to provide and help us work toward peace in this country. I'm also a minority and we Asians suffered attacks during Trump's administration because of his racist rhetoric. Those who are not in the minority cannot understand how we feel.

Agreed. Those who are not in the minority don't know how it feels to be ostracized by this country while Trump is in office. They stick their head in the sand.
Wish me well in my upcoming surgery.
