Republican Senators and President Donald Trump supporters continue to refer to the president as a “fighter” and yet he is anything but that. A fighter confronts his opponents face to face and doesn’t hide behind internet tweets. In reality, he is simply a bully and as we know bullies are nothing but cowards. He should listen to the first lady’s advice. I hope people are watching as he continues to cater to the rich, i.e., big tax breaks, removal of bank regulations that protect us, cut health benefits and assistance to the poor. He lies time after time and most congressmen won’t call him on it because they think that will help them get re-elected. Good luck middle class.

MJ from Worth questions and seems adamant about President Donald Trump’s qualifications for the office, saying, “… absolutely crazy, no question about it, is that someone so unequivocally unfit to lead the country.” My question to MJ is, would he or anyone in their right mind prefer a “neighborhood organizer” or a proven, successful leader of a prosperous international corporation?

Once again, the GOP-controlled Senate showed its true color, the color green, by standing up for Wall Street and taking away the right of average taxpayers to sue banks and financial firms when average taxpayers are defrauded by those financial entities. So, the same financial giants that nearly wrecked the economy are free to continue the same practices that precipitated the crisis with no fear of being held to account. Draining the swamp indeed.

I am watching and listening to liberal mainstream media talking about impeachment of President Donald Trump with all the made up allegations. Wow, that sounds exactly like former President Barack Obama. I’m just saying.
