Trump hurts himself, U.S. with childish tweets

-

I am not a fearful person, but I find myself writing this request to my senators and representa­tive at 4: 30 a. m. This is because my concern is so real it is keeping me up at night.

I am a U. S. Army veteran. I am a retired pastor. I am a lifelong taxpayer. I was a strong Donald Trump supporter and voted for him. However, I am greatly disappoint­ed in his tweeting. Not in his using Twitter, because I feel he can use it to his advantage. However, I am discourage­d because of some of his recent tweets. They are greatly below the dignity of the president of the United States.

When running as a candidate, Mr. Trump said he would be very presidenti­al. However, he is not. These tweets are childish and ridiculous. They make it impossible to defend him, and make his followers look like buffoons for attempting to do so.

I hope our senators let him know how much he is hurting the cause of the American people with his foolish tweets.

He has so much potential to do so much good for America, but he is destroying his own image. He can tweet of his successes in office, his plans for America, his accomplish­ments, but he has to stop tweeting foolish attacks on individual­s.

I want to continue to support him, but if he keeps this up I will no longer do so.

I want to help him make America great again, but I also want to be able to once again sleep at night.
