I won't disagree---I will agree. However, it's not just here. I don't know how much time you spend online or if you use social media websites, but this type of thing is EVERYWHERE right now. It is literally unavoidable. The country is divided----the biggest in my lifetime. Things will leak out in postings with things the way they are right now (which is why we need a leader, and not a community agitator, in the White House. See? It just leaked out again!). But it doesn't bother me, because I know how lucky we are to be able to write and think freely. Many nations around the world simply do not allow it. Also keep in mind that, even though so may disagree, politics and trains oftentimes go hand-in-hand.
