I have no desire to participate in a current thread about some minor actor who appears to have broken the law. I had never heard of him before he allegedly pulled a stunt and he has no political power. I will not be drawn into acting as if he has the importance of Donald Trump, who has great power and is usurping the powers of the legislative branch of the government right now by trying to get money that Congress expressly denied him.
Today a report came out that his illegal policy of separating children from their parents at the border has led to one report per week of sexual abuse at the hand of government employees, most of these contactors benefitting from Trump's policy. (Trump never fails to as much as he can of what would have been government business at one point, making his cronies rich.)
We will have to wait and see whether Trump, in his meeting with Kim Jung Un destabilizes the position of the United States in the pacific with Russia and China by making a move to remove American troops from Korea. He has already done damage to our country by ceasing the combined naval exercises of out troops and our allies, a move he made without consulting his own experts or Congress.
I will not enumerate all the ways in which Donald Trump endangers our country. I do not have the time or the space. But he is not a small fry.
