TRUMP: Here’s his legacy

| September 25, 2020 1:00 AM

A president for none of the people. Where are the men and women in government with guts to stand up to this clown?

As I sit beside the TV and listen to all the talking heads and their analysis of the political news, I can’t help but wonder how in the world did such a scoundrel as Trump get elected as president and why we cannot get rid of this liar and a person of such stupidity and low moral character. A person who cannot tell the difference between the truth and a lie and not only can he lie to the people around him, but lies to himself and he believes it.

Is there no one in government with enough guts to tell him to shut up and listen and leave the tweeting to the birds as they make more sense? I hang my head in shame because I voted for this poor excuse of humanity because I was as stupid as he is and could not believe that there could be a person as bad as he.

As a Korean War veteran, I was fortunate enough to go on a Northwest Honor Flight to Washington, D.C., visited Arlington, was humbled by the changing of the guard ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown, the Vietnam Wall, World War II Memorial, Korean Memorial and other expressions of respect to our country’s heroes and then hear our commander call out fallen heroes losers, etc. Who as a draft dodger himself has no right to set foot on their hallowed ground.

One thing old Trumpee doesn’t need to plan for is an eternal flame for his grave in the hereafter as I am sure he won’t need any more heat.
