I'm liking this new President already! Not only is he retracting pretty much everything the orange tosser did (thank goodness!) he's brining a sense of reality and normalcy back to this important world role. In his recent order to rescind the travel ban on certain Islamic countries he said the following,
"Presidential Proclamations that prevented certain individuals from entering the United States… are a stain on our national conscience and are inconsistent with our long history of welcoming people of all faiths and no faith at all."
In one simple statement he reversed a stupid ban but also (critically in my view) acknowledged that there are hundreds of millions of people in the world (including me) who don't believe in any Gods, and who are worthy of equal treatment, respect and status along with those that do. A simple acknowledgement of facts over the tyranny of the majority.
