A resounding “You’re fired”

What is becoming of this world; why is Trump getting away with all of his spiteful actions and why does he have the power to change his mind minute by minute? He sure has a fowl Christmas spirit doesn’t he? He purposefully picked this certain time, when it would hurt the most.

If he wants his damn wall, why can’t he pay for it himself? After all he is producing thousands of dollars to settle crimes that he is about to be charged with to keep himself from being prosecuted.

He is scraping the bottom of the barrel for just anyone to replace people he fired or decided to retire or who just plain quit rather than remain under his bullish demands.

The White House needs to be renamed Echo Temple, as the words constantly echoed through the place are “You’re fired.” God help us if this is to continue. If God will hear us, let it be now, so help us, amen.
