Unqualified, Unfit, & Un-American

Out of the tens of thousands of lies told by Trump, the three that matter the most are cause for his disqualification to serve in any office;
1. The Pandemic lie that caused the death of over 1.2 million people.
2. The Election fraud lie that has never been proven in a court of law with any evidence and was the reason for the January 6 insurrection of the capitol killing and injuring many law enforcement officers.
3. The Document lie of classified documents that was taken to Mar-a-Lago and probably has caused the lives of secrets agents, the dispersing of sensitive information and endangering our national security.

Let me just add a few other egregious examples of Trump’s unfitness, not only as an elected official, but as a person. It has just been reported that in his first 2 years as president he and his organization have made over 7 million dollars from foreign governments in violation of the Emolument Laws of the Constitution. Mostly from China and Russia. Two of our adversaries. Why is this information coming out now you may ask. Simply because when the republicans got the majority in congress, they stopped the investigations from continuing.

In 2017 his tax cuts have made these cuts permanent to the super rich but will increase every two years until 2027 for anyone making $75,000 or less.

His propensity to do away with our Constitution because it gets in his way to continue the grift and corruption.

He told you what he will do. Believe your ears.

He showed you what he did. Believe your eyes.

If these actions don’t give you reason to condemn him, in my opinion you are the problem. You cannot reasonably call yourself an American when the rule of law and our democracy is in jeopardy and you continue to support such a depraved individual.
