I can’t stand it any longer!!! Every time I see or hear Donald Trump spewing ridiculous lies about what he did and did not do, and about the horrible things he accuses the democrats and the President to have done, I immediately think of what little children on the playground would shout back when verbally abused with accusations and names like “doody-head” : “I know you are but what am I?” He is in fact actually guilty of, and responsible for everything he accuses his enemies of having done to the country and to himself. He has accused his accusers of:

Voter fraud
Worsening the federal deficit
Destroying democracy
Deserving of impeachment
Being too old to be re-elected
Rigging the 2020 election

Meanwhile, during his presidency he:

Promoted increasing fossil fuel production by opening huge areas of protected American wilderness to oil companies in the western US and Gulf of Mexico while also promoting the coal industry, using phrases like “beautiful clean coal”! And one of his idiotic campaign phraises is “Drill baby drill!!””
Downplayed the COVID pandemic and undermined the authority of medical experts like Dr Anthony Fauci
Supported the gun lobby and manufacturers and refused to make any effort to promote gun control legislation
He describes voters for his opponents as “liars, cheaters, frauds, crooks, perverts, and thugs, perverts and weirdos”

Many people laughed back in 2016 when, as Donald Trump was beginning his run for the presidency he stated, “I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose any voters, okay?” He promised to “drain the swamp” of political corruption. By 2024 he urged potential voters in Iowa during an arctic deep-freeze to “vote, even if you pass away from it”. Amazingly, the voters in Iowa voted for him overwhelmingly! It would be one thing if he was just a raunchy, obnoxious, redneck stand-up comedian, but it is entirely another for a potential republican United States President.

Since being voted out of office in 2020 he has further devolved from erstwhile President of The United States to a malevolent, self-absorbed, lying liar, who apparently has sold his soul to demons like Vladimir Putin, Kim Jung Un, and Adolf Hitler. Every effort that is made by legal authorities to punish him for his malevolent, self-serving assault on democracy is to him merely a “witch hunt” perpetrated by his enemies. He has become “the swamp”. The sad and scary thing is how many people in this country find his behavior acceptable, and are willing to vote for him again.

During the primaries, he insulted, ridiculed and berated his opponents, with especially disgusting comments about Nikki Hayley. She was the last opponent to stand up to him and point out his many weaknesses and character flaws. He is appealing to the segment of the US population that is understandably frustrated with the decay of our political system, especially his stooges in the US House of Representatives who have only one interest-to follow him likes mindless lemmings toward the brink of congressional collapse and a non-functioning democracy. He must be stopped.
