To inspire you. Words from Charles Blow.

Charles Blow wrote another very insightful column in the Times on February 23, 2017. You can read the whole of it here.

But Voices4Hillary has taken the liberty of placing only his closing words on this page, to inspire you.

Start your weekend with even more determination to resist, as Trump tries to end our free press.

Here are Charles Blow's brave and profound words.

. . . I have no patience for liberal talk of reaching out to Trump voters. There is no more a compromise point with those who accept, promote and defend bigotry, misogyny and xenophobia than there is a designation of "almost pregnant."

Trump is a cancer on this country and resistance is the remedy.

The Trump phenomenon is devoid of compassion, and we must be closed to compromise.

No one need try to convince me otherwise. The effort is futile; my conviction is absolute.

This is a culture war in which truth is the weapon, righteousness the flag and passion the fuel.

Fight, fight, fight. And when you are finished, fight some more.

Victory is the only acceptable outcome when freedom, equality and inclusion are at stake.

Ask yourself something: are you willing to pay higher taxes and have less affordable health care so you can “own the libs” because that’s the price you’ll have to pay if the GOP agenda is enacted … you pay more, their cronies pay less.
