I would like to mention that President Donald Trump has stated he is proud to be American and wants to make America Great Again, whatever that means. America has always been great. Just ask our migrants who have come to our shores from day one.
Trump in his mind has made America great again by hanging around criminals, starting with his lawyer and others, and chumming up to dictators and leaders from Russia, Turkey, Syria, China, North Korea and the Philippines, and he has insulted NATO.
He has put strains on Canada, Great Britain, Germany, Italy, France and all the others in NATO.
He has used his foundation to pay for his own oil painting to hang in his own property from money given to him by GOP supporters for charity. The state of New York is checking on this as a crime. It was run by his daughter and family with no board meetings for 19 years.
Trump has lied to the American people over 5,000 times and just lately to the military on their pay raise, stating they received one only in the last 10 years – a big, big lie.
The emolument clause means nothing to him. All staff stay at Mar a Lago. You pay for his rooms for all. Your dime, folks. He is enriching his family and himself.
America is great, that’s why you don’t leave. I hope you have a great 2019, but read the paper and not fake news broadcast on radio and TV.
