Trump's agenda showing

Posted December 07, 2016 12:00 am

Gerald Aleksy says that Trump voters believe in equal opportunity for everyone. If that is true, they supported the wrong candidate.

In addition to choosing Mike Pence as vice president, Trump has taken on Steve Bannon as his chief strategist and has nominated Jeff Sessions for attorney general. Bannon can never be considered "inclusive" and Jeff Sessions is critical of including disabled children in the public school classroom. These are not men who promote the ideal of equal opportunity.

In their haste to dislike Clinton, Trump supporters buried their heads in the sand and chose to overlook many of Trump's obvious flaws. His actions now speak volumes about his true agenda.

If Trump supporters don't like the labels, they need to speak up and oppose these appalling appointments.
