Susan describes herself as a "disgruntled retiree" or,  perhaps more elegantly, a "retired government worker. She submitted the piece below the day she received the announcement of the existence of voterbeat.com.

Demonstrated Sex Abuser (Trump) Speaks to Boy Scouts
​

You are just in time. I was watching the president speaking to the 12-year-olds at the Boy Scout Jamboree in West Virginia yesterday. I called the Boy Scouts. They have a canned message. They indicated that they don’t necessarily agree with the politics of the speech but he is their honorary president and is alway invited to speak. I couldn’t get through to speak to an individual. Either their phone is off the hook or there are more outraged human beings out there who wish the president would just shut his mouth and never speak to the youth of our country again.

Wow, how nice--a demonstrated sex abuser--the honorary president.  

I am so upset about this speech I wanted to take out a full page add in the Washington Post and scream my concerns. Then I remembered I couldn’t afford that but remembered the email I received yesterday so here I am. Thank you, Marj, for giving me a chance to vent. I too have found demonstrating very helpful to my sanity. I had never participated in such ventures before in my 71 years.
