Disgusted with Trump

I am very distressed at the alarming behavior present in Trump. His impulsive actions and reactions are that of a spoiled child. The Republican Party seems to have no control over his actions; this may be in part because he so often seems to act in his own interest and not that which has advantages for our country.

He seems bent on repealing everything that President Obama enacted, including environmental laws and Obamacare, regardless of the impacts they have on the people or the world. He has made light of the courageous women who have come forth with accusations. To say that he would rather have a pedophile for high office than a Democrat was a gross insult to over half of the voters in this country.

Unless something is done about his outlandish behavior, I fear not only for our country but for the world.
