Your mentally damaged and illegitimate president is mad with power. I have lost count of the number of times he has violated the Constitution over the last 13 months.

We cannot wait to vote him out of office, and allow him to destroy our nation forever. I suggest we begin the second American Revolution in earnest, and treat him like the French did Louie XVI in 1793. If you don’t remember your high school history, he was executed by placing his head in a guillotine, separating it from his body. Tyrants deserve only the best.

ATTEMPTING TO PREVENT FREE AND FAIR ELECTIONS IS THE LAST STRAW

It’s hard to believe. Any normal man with average intelligence would have ended such a moronic allegation years ago. But not Trump.

The “big lie” was just that. His own aides listened to the orange buffoon admit that he was soundly defeated in the 2020 election. More than 60 state courts and his own, stacked, Supreme Court, refused to hear his appeals, falsely claiming “massive fraud in the 2020 election.”

However. his affliction with malignant narcissism prevents the old man from accepting the fact that most Americans don’t dislike him, they hate him.

Over the last 10 years, facts prove that both the 2016 and 2024 elections were, as he called them,”rigged” in his favor. The primary culprit is Vladimir Putin, but other factors include the mainstream media, James Comey, and, of course, Fox News.

Trump is a dictator, but a weak one. His fears about losing the midterm elections are clear. Although the voting process belongs to all 50 states, Trump is attempting to discourage a large turnout in November. He is demanding a requirement that every voter show a birth certificate or passport. In one year, he wants to change century’s old policies and procedures which produced legitimate results.

Fact: attempted fraud in all elections is less than .012 percent. The truth is, the largest number of attempts to rig the election occurred in the 2016 election, all in support of the worst man in the world.

History proves that a lower voter turnout always favors fake Republicans.

13 MONTHS, AND TRUMP HAS DONE NOTHING FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE

In 1967, I reached the age of 21. I was eager to vote in the 1968 election. However, the man I wanted to become our president, Bobby Kennedy, was murdered the next summer. I would vote, but my choices were now limited and I was a little confused.

Now, at the age of 79, I know one fact about every Republican candidate: their promises rarely mean anything. The exceptions were Eisenhower and Nixon. Beginning in 1980, all Republican presidential candidates adopted one policy: “tell the voters what they want to hear, true or not.”

The one promise Trump made, which clearly boosted his campaign, was to end “Greedflation” on day one. Facts prove that the price of essentials continue to grow, and his ill-advised tariffs apply to all purchases Americans need to sustain even a meager quality of life. We cannot afford an illegitimate Trump presidency.

THE MOST DESTRUCTIVE ILLEGITIMATE PRESIDENT IN HISTORY

Monday, some Americans will celebrate “Presidents Day.” I will not.

When I was growing up, our nation celebrated the life of Abraham Lincoln on his birthday, February 12^th, and George Washington’s on the 22^nd. They deserve our respect and praise for their service to the American people.

However, most of our 47 presidents either harmed our nation or were simply “space fillers.” Only a handful can be considered “great.”

Trump will be remembered as the worst of all time, and no one will ever surpass that “honor.” Until 2017, George W. Bush held that position, but Trump became far worse than anyone could have imagined.

So, I refuse to honor him and others who failed miserably when given the opportunity to lead our nation.

“LOCK HIM UP?”

Attempting to redirect the truth, Trump encouraged his uninformed supporters to attack Hillary Clinton with a facetious chant: “Lock Her Up.” The truth is, Ms. Clinton was the most qualified candidate in American history.

All Americans should be voicing one thing today: “No King, No Trump.”

He must be removed from our White House before he destroys what remains from our nation’s most sacred edifice.

I don’t care what means might be used to evict Trump from office. He must be removed if the United States of America is to survive. He is following Putin’s orders and the right-wing fascist manifest, Project 2025 perfectly, and must be stopped.

Trump is America’s biggest mistake and a result of the failures of our elected officials in Washington.
