A self-interested administration
Wake up US citizens! We won’t save our country by sitting in front of the TV wringing our hands, whining and complaining about the disgraceful activity coming out of the White House.
Lawmakers we’ve elected, because we were led to believe they were capable leaders, have
seriously failed their constituents. The GOP has disintegrated into a bunch of disenchanted
“yes men/women” erroneously cheering on the pettiness of an egotistical man whose only goal is to destroy the United States and profit by that destruction.
Those brave souls who are cognizant of this are criticized fiercely with the childish “tweets” of name-calling and “fake news” accusations. Because of the knowledge, training and skills of members of the FBI, it has become a major target of the current White House inhabitant.
Highly respected and capable journalists are demonized daily, and restricted in their efforts to make the American people fully aware of the tragedy unfolding before them. When and how all this devious activity can be reined in is taking time because the real concerned people are attempting to do the job legally. But the shysters who have been hand-picked by the current administration are only interested in “What’s in it for me?” – not what is best for the citizens of the USA.
We are in a dizzying downward spiral. Wake up, Americans!
