We learned this morning that Secretary of State Rex Tillerson has been fired. Then we learned that Trump’s personal aide, John McEntee was also fired. He is under investigation by the Department of Homeland Security for ‘serious financial crimes.’

Don’t feel sorry for another criminal associated with the Trump administration. It was immediately announced that McEntee would be part of Trump’s reelection campaign staff. He fits in perfectly with other morally corrupt members of Trump’s staff and family.

America is bewildered. How can any individual lose more than 44 percent of his staff in 13 months and 20 days? Trump obviously makes the worst decisions of any man who ever sat behind the ‘Resolute Desk’ in the Oval Office. We are all waiting for the most important event of all; the firing of Donald J. Trump.

Okay; Trump is without morals; he is a sexual predator and a philanderer; and has committed treason by colluding with Putin during the election and laundering money for Russian oligarchs. All of this is incontrovertible fact. However, the fact that everything he says to the American people is a lie, is more than enough justification to throw him out of the White House.

We, the people, are the United States of America. When he lies to us, he is lying to the nation. This is unacceptable. The day Trump took the oath of office, he became a public servant, and nothing more. Many Republican hypocrites would claim that the fact that any man or woman is our president deserves our respect. I disagree. Public servants must earn our respect and loyalty.

Trump has done nothing to earn the right to wear the label of ‘President of the United States.’ He will never be my president for the primary reason that he refuses to perform the tasks required by the oath of office; “To preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States of America.” He continues to violate the law of the land, and has revealed his intention to repeal the first and foremost amendment in the Bill of Rights; the first.
