Trump is America's downfall

So sad to say the land of opportunity is no more since the election of our new president Donald Trump and Republicans that value his racist views. He wants a wall between Mexico and the United States. Why not a wall between Russia and the United States? Wanting Muslims to register: how is this any different from what Hitler did with the Jews? Will we start labeling people by their ethnic race?

He states that we should be making products in America. Really, that’s calling the kettle black when Trump and his daughter have their clothes line and many products made in other states because of cheap labor. This will be a downfall with our relationship with other countries.

All I see since day 1 Republicans have had to make excuses or backtrack any comments Trump has made. Now they want to blame President Obama for America’s downfall.

Wanting to make cutbacks at the people’s expense. Really? Also, drug testing before anybody receives benefits. Isn’t this somehow invasion of our privacy? Now that marijuana is legal, if we’re going to be biased let’s test everybody in office or those that work in government offices or our law enforcement.

This is the first president with a record of lawsuits and sexual harassment cases and nobody cares. Why hasn’t he showed his taxes like he promised the American people?
