This is not normal

Earlier this week after Trump’s speech to the joint session of Congress, Congresswoman Melanie Stansbury (D-N. Mex.) held up a small sign that said “This is not normal.”  She was standing fairly close to Trump.  Rep. Lance Gooden of Texas ripped it out of her hands.  You can see it on YouTube.  You can’t actually see the sign being ripped, but you can see Mr. Gooden’s arm reaching to rip the sign down.

I thought Mr. Gooden deserved a scolding.  Here is a copy of my letter to him:

Rep. Lance Gooden

2431 Rayburn Office Building

Washington, D.C. 20515

Dear Rep. Gooden,

I saw a map of your congressional district.  It looks kind of gerrymandered.  I don’t think that is normal.

It is also not normal for an alien from South Africa to fire federal employees.

It is also not normal for the U.S. to turn its back on an ally fighting for its freedom against a Russian invasion.

It is also not normal for a President to say he will lower our grocery bills on day one and then watch as prices continue to rise.

Nor is it normal for a grown man to rip a sign out of a woman’s hands.

And it is not normal to watch our democracy rapidly being destroyed.

You, sir, are a disgrace to both Texas and the United States.

Sincerely,

Roy Christman
