When I was growing up, the going wisdom was, “Great leaders emerge when we need them.” Well, we’ve got ourselves the opposite. He is the worst possible person to be at the helm right now. When we desperately need thoughtful, capable leadership to address a slew of difficult, fundamental, URGENT environmental, social, economic, international, and political problems that threaten the basic foundation and security of our country, MF45 is sending our country backwards on every front.

The repubs. and the Russians are all behind this clown. He likes to think of himself as a "star" He could not make himself king of TV, so he has to act as though he is so famous and loved, like a movie star. What was cold fish Maleria doing there? She is like a cardboard cutout. Smiling holding the orphan baby. Two of a kind, useless people. Wearing a sleeveless dress. Michelle Obama was vilified for wearing a sleevless dress. Maybe we should be grateful she didn't revert to her previous profession, and show up naked.

Not to mention parallel problems in other countries: UK, Poland, Hungry, Czech Republic, France, Brazil, and more. . . As others have noted, the problems won't go away after Trump goes away.

Not just the loss of all these experienced, committed, and capable people. But also, the destruction of the non-partisan, merit-based civil service.
This regime will not rest until it has destroyed our government completely.
