Checks and balances

-

We don’t have an idiot for president. I believe we have a gifted con artist whose only experience is manipulati­ng banks, bullying, lying, spending other people’s money to get what he wants, and saying, “You’re fired” on television.

Do you think Vladimir Putin trusts him after the way in which he behaves and lies here? Putin has heard all the stories about manipulati­ng banks on Wall Street, and you may take it to the bank that Putin has had a psychologi­cal profile done on Trump since his birth. I believe Putin knows more about Trump than he knows about himself, and Putin will throw him away like a rag doll as soon as he’s no longer useful.

Never ever put a businessma­n or businesswo­man in the White House. Their ties with other countries are too strong for them to be an effective president for us. Other countries can hold them over a barrel, especially if they or their families need money. The Saudis are a good example of what can happen when President Trump just couldn’t seem to grasp what happened to Jamal Khashoggi, or didn’t care. If you reduce a human being’s value to dollars and cents, President Trump is correct, but the worship of money will surely bring disaster to the United States.

The midterm election is over. We’re back to checks and balances. Jeff Sessions is out for doing his job. He didn’t work for the president, but took an oath to support the United States Constituti­on.
