A Presidency in the Gutter
Donald Trump has done many things that I thought a President of the United States would never do. He courts racists and Neo-Nazis. He makes fun of the handicapped. He invites Russian to the Oval Office and reveals classified information about one of our allies. He lies constantly. He attacks the FBI and JOD. He attempts to end the Mueller Investigation. He refuses to release his tax returns. He pays money to a stripper to prevent her discussing their sexual encounter. He values the word of Vladimir Putin over that of our own intelligence agencies. And, he ordered ICE to take young children from their parents who were seeking asylum in the US and imprisoned them.
This list could on and on, but today he went a step farther. In a text, he bad mouthed Omarosa Onee Manigault-Newman, his former aide whom he had previously praised. His text: "When you give a crazed, crying lowlife a break, and give her a job at the White House, I guess it just didn't work out. Good work by General Kelly for quickly firing that dog."
The President of the United States calls a black female a "dog."
I presume that "dog" is his a thinly disguised, misogynistic euphemism for "bitch." In his mind, women are dogs and bitches. He obviously has no respect for women, and he has previously made it clear he has no respect for blacks. In fact, Omarosa reported in her book that Trump uses the pejorative term, "n...er," in the Oval Office.
As a result of the 2016 elections, this is what the office of the President and the Oval Office has become: a shameless cauldron of racism and misogyny. That is why it is imperative that the citizens of this country send a message in the 2018 elections that this is unacceptable.
