Damaged relationships

Come on, Congress! President Trump is insulting and pushing away some of the United States’ most reliable allies (including our neighbors, Canada and Mexico) as he vaguely tries to align himself with expansionist China and Russia.

Trump has fired his first secretary of state, Rex Tillerson, who went far in dismantling the State Department, and believes that he’ll know Kim Jong Un’s thoughts about nuclear disarmament. Within in the first minute. Congress, do you think that diplomacy is so unimportant to U.S. interests that you will allow our megalomaniac president to destroy every relationship we have in the world?

Do you ever give a thought about the vicious, crippled country Trump is creating for your children? Are you worried about the fact that North Korea can reach the U.S. with a nuclear warhead? It is time to act now!
