We are no longer looked at as a powerful leader of the world anymore.
No other president has ever taken as many vacations and golf tours to different countries, and taken so many people with him at our expense! President Lyndon Johnson and both the Bushes spent their free time at their ranches in Texas or Martha’s Vineyard, and I can’t ever remember the Clintons vacationing outside the United States.
We have citizens out of work and struggling, while illegals are being taken care of with food, medical, and who knows what else. Our wounded warriors, who fought for us, are not being taken care of and die as a result. I believe in helping people, but not at the expense of our own.
Now another country is managing the Internet and other companies— more jobs leaving our country. The future looks grim for our children and grandchildren.
