It began with his communications with Russian officials before he was even sworn into office.
He resisted signing any sanctions against Russia for interfering with our elections.
He wrote love letters and embraced every tin-horn dictator in the world, even as he stabbed our allies in the back.
He wanted the US to withdraw from NATO and bad-mouthed all the leaders that had been our allies for the last 75 years.
He withdrew from almost all our treaties around the world. Just yesterday, he withdrew from the Open Skies Treaty. He withdrew from Syria and wants to withdraw from Afghanistan, all for the benefit of Russia.
He has taken a sledgehammer to our laws and institutions and has deeply wounded our democracy.
Now, as the people have rejected him, he is in the process of destroying the most sacred part of our democracy, the right to vote and to have it counted.
He has been loyal to Vladimir Putin until the very end.
