President Trump must go

President Trump must go
By David Rothkopf August 16 at 9:39 AM

Donald Trump on Tuesday afternoon gave the most disgusting public performance in the history of the American presidency.

Framed by the vulgar excess of the lobby of Trump Tower, the president of the United States shook loose the constraints of his more decent-minded advisers and, speaking from his heart, defended white supremacists and by extension, their credos of hatred.

He equated with those thugs the courageous Americans who had gathered to stand up to the racism, anti-Semitism and doctrine of violence that won the cheers and Nazi salutes of the alt-right hordes to whom Trump felt such loyalty.

Some of us have long been urging people to see that the Trump presidency was “not normal.” But we are past such discussions now. There is only one conclusion that any American patriot of either party can draw. Trump must go.

He was back home, kicking back in his own digs where he's king of the castle. Where he felt no restraint.
