Can't support president who can't be trusted

Here is my opinion about our current president of the United States: When I immigrated to the U.S.A. in 1964 (legally) my hopes were very optimistic, to enjoy a good future and make a decent living, which I have for all these years until my retirement in 2006.

I became a U.S. citizen in 1974 and have voted every year since. I am a Democrat, but I didn't always vote democratic, I did not always pick the winner, but I was never pessimistic about any end results. When it was announced in 2015 that Donald J. Trump would be a candidate, I was all for it and had hope that he would be someone I could vote for.

But it only took about three months to find out that this was not going to be my candidate that I could vote for, Reasons: Contradicting himself very often and lying over and over again.

Now comes out the latest about our president. He is and always was a racist, but it took all the stories and comments he made over decades that there is strong proof now. And that is not going to change. The whole world knows it and millions of United States citizens are embarrassed to have a president like that. I was on vacation in Europe recently and the comments that I heard were very negative. A change must come, the sooner the better. Liars cannot be trusted.
