Donald Trump's Implosion Continues, Women Come Forward, Sen. Mike Lee urges Trump to quit, as Utah Republicans abandon their party’s nominee

Here

Illinois Sen. Mark Kirk, who has not endorsed Trump and is the most precariously-positioned Republican in the Senate, called his party’s nominee “a malignant clown – unprepared and unfit to be president of the United States.”

And per Gary Johnson, "“I’m shocked by these revelations about Donald Trump, but is anyone really surprised?” Johnson wrote on Facebook. “It is just sad and embarrassing that a man who is now the nominee of a major party for President could display such a disgusting attitude toward women. America deserves better. Women deserve better, and our daughters deserve better.”

Per the Huffington Post 10/10/16:

"Editor’s note: Donald Trump regularly incites political violence and is a serial liar,rampant xenophobe, racist, misogynist and birther who has repeatedly pledged to ban all Muslims — 1.6 billion members of an entire religion — from entering the U.S."

Per the Huffington Post 10/10/16:

"Two Women Say Donald Trump Touched Them Inappropriately"

Per the Huffington Post 10/12/16:

"More Women Come Forward With Donald Trump Groping Allegations"

"Trump says his boasts of sexual assault were just talk. These women say it happened to them."

The story reports on and quotes at least seven women reporting various levels of groping and assault, it's hard to keep track count them all.

And finally, with a lack of suspense or fair play that shocks no one, Donald Trump will not reveal his tax returns to the American people before the 2016 election.

I've been thinking some about the Winter Solstice, the Mayan end of the 30,000-year-cycle on 12/21/12.

What if in fact the world did end? Even though this probably will not happen, to live consciously it is honest for us to take a bit of an inventory.

Am I happy with how I've lived my life? (Yesterday, I thought mostly yes, with some areas for improvement, as below.) Are there changes I would make?
Would I have tried to forgive those that were hostile or disappointing to me?
Would I spend more time with those I loved the most, telling them that, feeling that more?
Would I be happier, grateful for what I have, what I've experienced, the joy, the beauty in this world?

Maybe the answer is yes to all of the above.
So this time can serve as a point of rebirth for all of us. If we think about it.

Because somewhere along the line I realized I think maybe mankind deserves it. !
The way we are killing each other, killing the planet.
How selfish we are, and snotty to those around us. Petty, competitive. Why is this? Do we have to behave this way? (I say no, it greatly detracts and misdirects energy from the full-time celebration in which we could engage, the great multi-cultural, multi-rhythmic dance we can sustain here.)

Maybe God or the Great Universe is fed up, and will pull the rug out from under us.
Don't think I can say we could blame Him/Her/It.

But it probably won't happen. (Probably not! This time.)

Still we are finite on this ride.

It is a time to think, am I happy with how I've lived my life?
Hopefully most of us can say yes.

For the part of us that have a little worry, a little sadness....
This is the time to be present.
This is the time to be the person you want to be, that can die at peace, that can hope to every day be able to look yourself and the Universe in the eye and say, how beautiful, smiling, and thank you. Let's do that.
