Just today Trump made Gina Haspel the new CIA director. She operated a
secret CIA torture chamber in Thailand. When the secret of its existence
came out in 2005 she ordered video tapes of hundreds of hours of torture
sessions be destroyed "in a industrial-strength shredder". She is replacing
Mike Pompeo who was promoted to Secretary of State and is also a big
torture fan. And of course Donald Trump is the biggest torture fanboy of
all. Look me in the eye and telll me you see a moral equivalence between
those who want to see people tortured and those that don't.

Some on this list have said I should respect people who are not
respectable, but I don't know how to do that and don't want to learn
