 Good morning. Let us all remember....

No matter how educated, talented, rich or cool you believe you are, how you treat people ultimately tells all. Integrity is everything 
 Sadly there are hates on all sides.

I was reading today about Maher badmouthing Democrats who were attacking RFK, Jr's wife for not stopping him from endorsing Trump (even though she has made clear she disagrees with the endorsement).  It is true these attacks are horribly hateful and unacceptable behavior, but then a bunch of Republicans chime in bashing Maher for things in his past and not being a full Republican.  When someone starts to see the truth or come over to your side, the worst thing you can do is bash them for not seeing it sooner or not seeing it fast enough.  That just drives them away.  Why does everyone have to hate anyone who disagrees with them at all? 
 Fantastic assessment!
