Branden: How not to define people

“Some of my Democratic friends have decided, apparently, the best approach going forward is to denigrate and demonize the president-elect. On the other hand, some of my Republican friends seem determined to repudiate these attacks with the narrative that president-elect is nearly infallible. Then, there are people like me that choose to acknowledge the president-elect’s shortcomings, but also know that people should never be defined by what is wrong with them” — Branden Durst , former Idaho state senator who now lives in Tacoma, via Facebook.
