Never discussed by the mainstream media is the fact that Trump is responsible for death and violence not only in America, but around the world. He offered examination of his true self during his rallies when he encouraged hatred and violence. Out of the shadows came hate groups which now had a leader who could defile the White House sheets. When Trump supported the white supremacists in Charlottesville, Virginia, they learned two things. Trump not only agreed with their hate march, he was one of their own.

It is a fact that not since the Civil War have our nation’s people been so divided. This situation not only exists in America, it has spread around the world. Hate crimes have risen by 800 percent in our nation, and they have increased dramatically in nations throughout the planet.

I believe that Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, is nearly as dangerous to world peace as Donald Trump. He has refused to meet with Palestinian leaders to discuss lasting peace in their part of the Middle East many times. Netanyahu has no respect or compassion for the people who share the West Bank with his citizens. For him they are a danger and an inconvenience.

It is no surprise that Trump admires a man who seeks autocratic rule in Israel and throughout the geographical region. They are like-minded. Trump created a very dangerous situation when he recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

First, let’s discuss Jerusalem’s importance to three very different religions. Jews believe that Jerusalem is the city upon which their ancestors built the first city of Israel thousands of years ago. Muslims believe that the Prophet Muhammad rose to heaven from one specific spot in Jerusalem. Christians believe that it was in this area that Jesus Christ was crucified and rose from the dead. Of course these are the short versions of why Jerusalem is vital to all three religions; the whole story for each religion is far more complicated.

After Trump made his serious mistake, riots began as Palestinians began throwing rocks at Israeli soldiers. These soldiers responded with gunfire; killing dozens during the next few weeks.

Under Trump’s moronic and illegitimate presidency, our State Department has been building an embassy in Jerusalem; it is scheduled to open today. Earlier, a riot began at the Gaza border. As of this writing, 37 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli soldiers.

Some “suck-ups” in the failed Republican Party have nominated Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, not for what he has actually accomplished, but for what the world hopes will happen on June 12^th in Singapore. What he is really responsible for is the creation of a more dangerous world, and new conflict between old adversaries. It is Trump who bares the responsibility for thousands of deaths around the world; and there will be many more.

Here in America, three mass shooting have occurred in the 15 months and 24 days Trump has been in office. Is it fair to place a part of the blame on Trump? His devotion to the NRA has prevented changes in our gun laws which would have saved dozens of men, women, and children. He never discusses white terrorism in America, or a solution, although statistics prove that home-grown terrorism is the greatest danger to our nation’s people.

Three loan gunmen, armed with military assault rifles slaughtered 101 innocent citizens in Las Vegas, Nevada, Sutherland Springs, Texas, and Parkland, Florida.

Your illegitimate president is a man filled with anger and hatred who believes that he has the right to take any action he chooses, regardless of the problems and dangers resulting from his rash decisions and rash actions.

Trump is unfit to lead our nation, and the thought of any ‘peace prize’ is hilarious.
