Never normalize Trump.

figsandnewtons:

The media will try. Don’t allow it. He can never be treated like a normal president. We can’t let this ever be seen as acceptable, not for a minute.

Jackie DeShannon - “What The World Needs Now Is Love”

“What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It’s the only thing that there’s just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
No, not just for some but for everyone”

Embrace - “No Use Crying”

I won’t let you break
You’ll live to fight another day
All so you feel safe
I’d take a bullet, jump a speeding train

I kick to stay afloat
And end this sad song on a happy note
No one else came close
To making my heart stop

So you’ve gotta wipe your eyes
‘Cause there’s no use crying
I know you’re sick of trying
But you know your day is gonna come

Wipe your eyes
'Cause there’s no use crying
I know you’re sick of trying
But you know your day will come

One day we’ll run away
And they will hunt and chase
I will turn this place
Into a playground once again
Say you’ll come with me
And I will try to make it all feel safe

You know you’ve gotta wipe your eyes,
'Cause there’s no use crying,
I know you’re sick of trying
But you know your day is gonna come
Know your day is gonna come (x3)

You’ve gotta wipe your eyes
'Cause there’s no use crying
I know you’re sick of trying
But you know your day is gonna come

Wipe your eyes
'Cause there’s no use crying
I know you’re sick of trying
But you know your day is gonna come
Know your day is gonna come

Hope Of The States - “The Good Fight”

“And despite it all we’re doing alright
Our friends by our side
We fight a good fight
And all of the pain and all of the strife means nothing to us
We fight a good fight

We’ll win in another life
I know we will
Tomorrow is another chance
To make the next day better”

Janelle Monae - “Cold War”

“Bring wings to the weak
And bring grace to the strong
Make all evil stumble as it flies in the world
All the tribes come and the mighty will crumble
We must brave this night and have faith in love

I try to find my peace
I was made to believe there’s something wrong with me
And it hurts my heart
Lord have mercy, ain’t it plain to see

That this is a cold war
Do you know what you’re fighting for?
This is a cold war
You better know what you’re fighting for.”

Portishead - “Roads”

“Oh, can’t anybody see
We’ve got a war to fight
Never found our way
Regardless of what they say
How can it feel, this wrong?
From this moment
How can it feel, this wrong?”

Yeah, I might speak so long
I’ve never been so wrong”

First Aid Kit - “Stay Gold”

The sun shone high those few summer days
Left us in a soft, wide-eyed haze
It shone like gold
It shone like gold

But just as the moon it shall stray
So dawn goes down today
No gold can stay
No gold can stay

What if our hard work ends in despair?
What if the road won’t take me there?
Oh, I wish, for once, we could stay gold

What if to love and be loved’s not enough?
What if I fall and can’t bear to get up?
Oh, I wish, for once, we could stay gold
We could stay gold

We’re on our way through rugged land
Top of that mountain we wanted to stand
With hearts of gold
With hearts of gold

But there is only forward, no other way
Tomorrow was your hope at the end of the day
And gold turns gray
And gold turns gray

What if our hard work ends in despair?
What if the road won’t take me there?
Oh, I wish, for once, we could stay gold

What if to love and be loved’s not enough?
What if I fall and can’t bear to get up?
Oh, I wish, for once, we could stay gold
We could stay gold

All of my dreams, they fall and form a bridge Of memories where I can get back
All of my dreams, they fall and form a bridge Of memories where I can’t get back to you

What if our hard work ends in despair?
What if the road won’t take me there?
Oh, I wish, for once, we could stay gold

What if to love and be loved’s not enough?
What if I fall and can’t bear to get up?
Oh, I wish, for once, we could stay gold
We could stay gold
Could stay gold
Stay gold
