Some suggest this may be his strategy to assure those in the hot seat in today’s high profile collusion and obstruction of justice investigations that they shouldn’t worry if convicted; after all, he has their backs and the presidential power of pardon.
I am deeply upset, not just as a partisan, but as an American citizen who sees the president’s deeds severely polarizing our citizens, confusing our allies and praising our enemies and demeaning anyone whom he perceives is not in his camp, not to mention his attacks on our traditional democratic institutions.
Where are our representatives, especially in the Republican Party? Don’t any of them have the spine and conscience to stand up to this man? Or, is retaining political power the only and ultimate goal?
We all want the best for our children and grandchildren, but that involves teaching them that integrity, honesty and decency are essential traits that help us enjoy a fulfilled and satisfying life as good citizens. We don’t need to make America great again; we want America’s greatness to endure. Vote this November.
