This is part of the reason why I left America for Israel. The lunacy is too much. When Obama was inaugurated, my Tevye sense started tingling, and I knew it was time to go. Trump is wonderful, but the lunacy is still there, and I’ve had a half century of it already.
I think your Tevye sense was spot on. I admire your decision to act on your principles. Thank God there is an Israel you could go to. People have very little appreciation for how close all of us live to the edge of loss of freedom and totalitarian oppression (or worse).
