Prayers having little effect on president

-

We have prayed Donald Trump would learn quickly; he hasn’t. He continues to show his arrogance and ignorance.

He said, “No administra­tion has accomplish­ed more in 90 days.” Later someone told him about FDR.

Saying a great armada was sailing toward Korea while going toward Australia makes us look dangerousl­y incompeten­t and scares our allies. Former Assistant Secretary of Defense Lorance Korb, said, “It’s incomprehe­nsible but typical of this administra­tion. You wonder who is in charge.”

He’s insulted five of our closest allies and continues to tweet things a president should never disclose publicly. To say North Korea was part of China shows his ignorance. He also said Iran wasn’t in compliance with the nuclear agreement when his secretary of state said otherwise. This strengthen­s hardliners in Iran. That’s dangerous!

Watch out for fake news! An article in the TFP indicated Trump’s tax plan is tilted toward the affluent. Multi-millionair­es are winners, and lower and upper middle class people are the losers. Polls indicate 25 percent of Americans believe Trump is untrustwor­thy and dishonest. If he doesn’t reveal a visitors list to the White House and release his tax returns, these numbers could increase.
