Trump is one who is out of line
I am old so can speak out when others have to be more careful and considered in their approaches. I see what is happening and I can clearly state, “Look, folks, the Emperor has no clothes!”
He pretends to be a leader, a politician, and a person of some presence. But he is nothing but a poorly spoken bully, hiding naked behind a Twitter feed. He attacks people’s integrity and his followers cheer. Why? What have we done to ourselves in this country? We need to come together, listen to his followers, and find out why they resort to following him.
Sarah Sanders and Kirstjen Nielsen were heckled. Their boss, who they defend, has constantly insulted, lied to, and patronized us Americans on radio and television. But now the hecklers are being told they are out of line!
He has also insulted people who have been kind to me personally when I have visited their countries because of their skin color, religion, or national origin.
He hurts them, embarrasses me, and makes me ashamed to be an American. No one tells him he is out of line. Why not? Why can he insult, demean and lie about others without retaliation?
Well, it seems people have had enough, but just heckling is not the answer. There are decent folk to follow on both sides — so let’s do it, Democrats and Republicans together. Let’s fight for decency, debate our problems with dignity, and take back our country from the likes of Donald Trump.
