Trump’s Day of Confusion: Arpaio’s Pardon and Gorka’s Resignation

Arpaio (2)

Today the Trump administration displayed the most confusing events in a single day in his administration. Joe Arpaio is a confirmed racist and was convicted by the federal government as an individual who violated the civil rights of hundreds, and possibly thousands of Americans. Sebastian Gorka, who is a devout white supremacist and bigot resigned from Trump’s inner circle. Who is Donald Trump? Is he the most ignorant man in America or is he the most prejudiced man in America?

Joe Arpaio was the sheriff of Maricopa County, and instructed his deputies to detain anyone who appeared to be Hispanic. His racist policies were addressed by the federal court system and deemed a violation of the Constitution of the United States. He was subsequently convicted of criminal contempt of the directions of a federal court. Today Trump pardoned him; proving that your president is a bigot and a white supremacist.

Later in the day, Sebastian Gorka resigned from Trump’s advisory support. The reasons are unclear, but Gorka’s support of extremist policies were opposed by chief of staff John Kelly. Was this another effort by Kelly to stabilize the degenerating presidency of Donald Trump?

The only guarantee of this illegitimate presidency is that nothing is predictable. Trump has no concept of what the next day will bring, and the majority of his words and actions add additional proof that he is mentally incompetent to retain his position as the President of the United States. His decisions and proposals are destructive to the very essence of our nation’s principles.

Trump must be removed from office by the most efficient means possible. He will destroy our nation if the American people refust to take action.

Please re-post; thank you.
