Trump making mockery of Constitution

Posted July 08, 2019 1:00 am

I don't believe people realize that Trump has already been cited three times in federal court for fraud. He was convicted of running a fraudulent unniversity and was heavily fined. Again his Trump Foundation "charity" was convicted of fraud and forced to disband. Trump was using it as a personal piggy bank. Why he eluded jail time is beyond me. He and all of his family, who were complicit in the fraud, are forever banned from creating another "charity."

The racist Trump also reared its head in federal courts. His Trump Corporation was convicted of racial discrimination in housing. He refused to sell to minorities.

Anyone who has actually read the Mueller Report, can only come to one conclusion - Trump committed multiple acts of obstruction of justice.

The only thing preventing an indictment is a rule that no sitting president can be indicted. In this country it still should be rule of law that no one is above the law. In order to save democracy, and uphold the Constitution, Trump must be held accountable. Trump swore on Jan. 20, 2017, to preserve and protect the Constitution of the United States. In the ensuing years, Trump has only made a mockery of it every day.
