I said... "this anger has been building for a long time."
It isn't new, hatched by Trump or the media.
I encountered it as early as the 1983. Instead of hope and optimism, they were gloom and despair. The best and the brightest, with colleges cued up to receive them, full scholarships, Math and Science wiz kids -- they were fearful for the environment, would they have safe water to drink, the cold war had them uncertain they would make it 20, and as for social justice! after Kent State, murdered civil rights workers, Martin, John, and Bobby -- 'standing up' meant risking assassination.
