Donald Trump is a liar, as I've pointed out before. The
latest instance is that we've gotten differing and inconsistent accounts of why
FBI Director James Comey was fired.
Trump is a horrible, horrible man. He contradicts himself.
His statements are contradicted by testimony of others in government. When he
says something that makes no sense, his press secretary has the job of
explaining that away, and will say something like, "Well, at the time Mr.
Trump made that statement, that was what all the available evidence was
pointing to." When the media point out that Trump has said something
false, or when they say anything critical of him, the tries to discredit the
media, using the term "fake news" in a tweet (and Trump is the first
president, I am sure, to continually voice himself on Twitter. He not only does
it daily but now it's even three tweets a day).
I'd like to believe that many people who voted for Trump by now have seen
their mistake. Still, it's clear that there is a hard core who will never stop
supporting him, not even the Kentucky
coal miner with black lung disease who stands to lose his health insurance or
find that it has become unaffordable, because he has a "pre-existing
condition." That man says, "I voted for him and I'd vote for him
again."
People want positive feedback for the choices they've made.
They want to be told they made a good choice, a good decision--whether it's the
car they bought or the political candidate they voted for. This is why some
people will reluctantly, or never, confront the fact that they made a very
unwise decision in voting for Trump.
Trump is a disgrace and an embarrassment to this country. In
France, in their recent presidential election, there was a candidate quite a
bit similar to Trump--Marine Le Pen, who was an extreme right-wing candidate
running on an anti-immigration platform. The French voters soundly rejected Le
Pen. Looks like Frenchmen are smarter than Americans.
