Mr. President, you are not King

We have no king in this country. You live in a land where we have checks and balances.

I really don't give a rat's ass for your reasons for refusing to release the aid to Ukraine. Refusing to release it was illegal. Bottom line.

That's #1.

You refused to divest yourself from businesses that earn money from both foreign and domestic government entities.

That's #2.

You are thwarting an investigation by the House of Representatives in their DUTY to conduct oversight.

That's #3.

He is not fit to wear the title, and he loves to be called that, so I refuse to give him the pleasure, even though I know he doesn't read my posts.

He's not our president. He's a stupid, malicious, spiteful narcissist that was installed by Putin and aided and abetted by the Repuke party.

It’s not a title when it isn’t capitalized.

Also when I refer to his predecessor I ALWAYS say President Obama. Always.

His boast about how avoiding STDs somehow equates to serving in VietNam should have alienated all loyal, patriotic citizens.

I won't get into name-calling here, but I have noticed how a lot of journalists and other writers now refer to his title in lower-case. When I attended J-school a few decades ago, I was taught that this particular title is always Capitalized. Not any more!

Special thanks for all Veterans on DU.
