(870 posts)30. Trump gives us the example in real life, what it is like to be under a dictator.
Sadly, we as a nation are allowing it to go on far too long. It insults everything people have served and died to build, support and protect.
Trump and the Republican Congress should get the penalty for Treason Against Everything American Democracy is built upon, everything it stand to represent.
This attack on our Judicial system and the civility of people to protest, is something American should NEVER tolerate and certainly not endure for the length of time and the expanse of the insults he's done to America, American People and our American systems and institutions.
