TRUMP: Learn from the past

Why in this day and age have we regressed to the point that we have become so callous to the events that have taken place in our country that we no longer hold anyone accountable for their actions especially Trump? Hitler rose to power because of so many folks that were brain washed to the point that they would not or could not fight back and chose to turn a blind eye on the tragic atrocities that followed.

Now turning to our own situation. We were well aware of Donald Trump’s mis-dealings with his poor business practices and tax evasion and all the other scams he used to avoid being accountable.

Now, way over due is an attempt to hold him and his family and his cronies accountable. But why has it taken so long? As the old saying goes, “If we don’t learn from our past mistakes, we are bound to repeat them.” So here we are and the only hope we have now is in Garland’s hands. If there is a thread of professionalism in our justice system, we are about to find out. Trump’s scams have gone on way too long with the casino, the fake charity, the inflated and deflated values of his property, his womanizing, his failure to stop the Jan. 6 invasion of the Capitol building. His attempt to fire up all his base to commit acts of violence and his lack of integrity to admit he lost the election. Total it all up folks, “He is a loser.”
