I have been wondering lately about how things are going to go down in our society. When I see how divided we are, how much hatred is passed between fellow human beings, it can be easy to despair. I wear the feeling like a weight on my chest.<\/p>\n

Just a sample of the sad scene we faced at the Trump rally in Tampa. I\u2019m very worried that the hostility whipped up by Trump and some in conservative media will result in somebody getting hurt. We should not treat our fellow Americans this way. The press is not the enemy. pic.twitter.com\/IhSRw5Ui3R<\/a><\/p>\n
