President Trump has not been in office for three months and he has managed to step over the limits of and raise the eyebrows of, many Mainers. I throw out a challenge to fellow Mainers, Democrats and Republicans alike, to draw their line in the sand.
Ask yourself: “What if Trump did __? Then I would have to stop supporting him, or at least stop being silent about his policies and ideas.” Maybe he has already crossed your line. Maybe not. Maybe you are saying, “Let some of his policies take effect and see how they do.”
Where is your line? Elimination of FEMA, privatized prisons, attacks on Social Security, kids’ school breakfast and lunch, pardons to Jan. 6 insurrectionists, or the lies? Will anyone wait till he makes himself king? Love him or hate him, find your line in the sand. Trump will cross it.
