President's behavior embarrasses nation

Posted June 21, 2018 11:00 pm

I have always been a proud American, that is until Donald J. Trump was elected president of the United States. Now, I have never been so embarrassed to be an American.

Trump has alienated our allies, emboldened our enemies and eroded the fabric of our democracy and that which has made our country great.

Trump's narcissistic, racist, mean-spirited, bullying personality has even turned his Republican colleagues into lemmings.

I've read about communist countries that put the party ahead of country, which is what the Republican Party is currently doing.

This has got to stop. Every American who loves the country should be appalled by Trump's agenda and actions. Never before has the need to remove a seated President been more urgently needed. Trump is toxic to our democracy and needs to be removed from office before it's too late.
