Experience matters
Now I know why we don’t elect politically inexperienced people for president, as Donald Trump has been an unmitigated disaster.
It started with the disputed Inauguration Day crowd size; the discriminatory travel ban fiasco; Trump accusing President Obama of spying on him; Trump firing FBI Director James Comey because he didn’t like Comey’s investigation of him; Trump viciously attacking the Russian investigation (a legitimate investigation); EPA Director Scott Pruitt destroying our country’s environment and being involved
in endless ethical investigations; President Trump lying several times a day; Trump attacking the media and our intelligence agencies and believing foreign dictators over our revered intelligence agencies.
Trump viciously attacking our close and trusted longtime foreign allies while praising brutal foreign dictators; Trump instituting a cruel and inhumane policy of separating immigrant children from their parents; Trump taking the word of Russian dictator Vladimir Putin over our own intelligence agencies; Trump not taking any measures to prevent us from a future cyberattack; Trump watering down sanctions against Russia; instability in our government with an almost endless array of people quitting the Trump administration or being fired from it; Trump waging a war against women, even wanting to overturn legalized abortion; and Trump waging a dangerous war of words with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, which could have easily resulted in a nuclear war.
I could go on and on how dangerous, reckless and unprofessional Trump has acted, to the extent that credible people think that he may even be a Russian agent or that he has been deeply compromised by the Russians, where he is the leader of our country who you can’t even believe, as he mainly just spouts propaganda and endless lies.
