Order in the House!


Let’s see, what’s going off the rails now? These will do for starters:


1.      Foreign affairs not smooth at all; at all. Allies are distanced by our own rhetoric and broken promises. Being the leader of the Free World has responsibilities and a price tag. It is not a fiefdom to do with as you please. It is a relationship for adults only.


2.      Reducing taxes because that’s easy, is a cheap trick to bankrupt the government. Give away your income sources so you can plead poverty later and reduce human services spending. Your giveaways, Donald, have added over a trillion dollars in debt. We are still spending a trillion on military adventures in the Middle East. 


3.      And now you are begging for war in Iran?  Another trillion or so, then what?


4.      Who bombed Saudi Arabia’s oil fields? Who cares? We are responsible for the outcomes caused by our own stupid relations with known enemies and oil czars. Was this your plan, Donald? Or just a whim? An accident?


The convergence of these issues is not all by accident. Nor is it by pure design. A little of both is my fear. Fear, because, this portends lack of control over action and the cause of future actions. The stage appears to be set for serious military involvement. People concerned about the size of their sword usually are intent to prove the unprovable and start fights because that’s what bullies like: the action and to see fear in the other person’s eyes.


Electing the wrong person to the highest position in our nation has consequences. Or any nation. Intended or not, many lives will be lost here and at home. Families will be destroyed. Fortunes, too, will be derailed. And all for the ego of one person along with his ‘friends’ who smell profit for themselves.


Many of us have warned that the trump administration is a clear and present danger to the United States and the world community. Each day that passes without regime change in Washington DC is another day closer to the Armageddon of foolishness.


But hey! That’s what bullies do. Shame on the American people for allowing this crap to go on this long.


The most potent resolution is invoking the 25th Amendment of the US Constitution. The current chief executive is incapable of handling the job. He is incompetent. Now is the time to take charge by people who are well-informed and trusted to do the right thing. Maintaining the status quo will destroy the nation. That point is quite clear to me. Perhaps to you as well?


Kindly remember that political party mechanisms allowed this to happen. They define and control the election machinery nationwide. The time to replace that with a government managed system is now.

We have allowed the inmates of the asylum to run the institution for too long.


Heed this warning well, my friends.
