The list of reasons why I will never accept Trump as my president is too long to write in a single article. However, at the top of this list is his belief that he rules over the American people and refuses to serve us. It is obvious that he believes that he is a monarch with unlimited powers. His Constitutional violations must be punished. Trump is unfit to claim the title of President of the United States.

From day one Trump made it very clear that he would serve only those who supported him in the 2016 election. As natural disasters occurred in the summer of 2017 Trump rushed aid to Texas and Florida, but ignored more than three million American citizens living on the island of Puerto Rico. When California was devastated by wildfires, he blamed his own national forestry service for the disaster; pretending that they were employees of the state of California.

Trump has escalated his attacks on those who do not recognize him as their legitimate president every time he holds one of his hate rallies. If he is attempting to perform stand-up comedy, he is failing miserably.

However, federal Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson ordered former White House counsel Don McGahn to testify before the House impeachment inquiry. This voids another effort by the White House to obstruct justice.

“Stated simply, the primary takeaway from the past 250 years of recorded American history is that Presidents are not kings,” Jackson wrote.

“It is indisputable that current and former employees of the White House work for the People of the United States, and that they take an oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States,” the judge added.

Although it is now confirmed that Trump should be impeached, the focus of the American people must be on the 2020 election. The choice for the presidency is obvious; anyone but Trump. However, the issue we must face is whether or not the Republican Party will be allowed to exist in the future.

The right-wing’s devotion to the most immoral and egomaniacal man in the world has divided our nation. Real Americans oppose Trump’s unconstitutional and illegitimate presidency, while brainwashed Americans continue to support the wannabe king. If a single Republican in name only is allowed to remain in office, this would be a slap in the face to every man who signed placed his signature on the Constitution.

Although the mainstream media continues to describe Trump’s anti-American antics as “unusual,” they are failing the American people by not being truthful. Trump is spitting on the Constitution every day. He has no respect for the law and no interest in serving all 330 million Americans. This is unacceptable. We, the people, deserve better.

Every Democrat who has declared her or his candidacy in 2020 would be a far better president than the reality television personality who is pretending to be the leader of the most powerful and richest nation in the world today. This is based on this truth; they love their country more than the money in their wallets, and their loyalties are to the American people, not Vladimir Putin.
