President Dotard Trump
A Trump update. Where to start… I think picking a fight with professional athletes was a big mistake – these people are influencers and have the potential to cause him major harm. And he claims his statements were not racist – I say BS. He criticized basketball and American football players – which are predominantly black – but praised NASCAR drivers, who are exclusively white. And I don’t think he understands the point of kneeling or sitting during the national anthem – it’s not to disrespect America or the armed forces, but to draw attention to institutional racism. And, perhaps most importantly, they have the constitutional right to protest this way. I also don’t think he knew that Puerto Rico was an American territory - he didn’t say anything about the devastation there for a long time before finally criticizing the infrastructure. And all of this was after the most recent saber rattling between the US and North Korea. Trump and his administration’s contradictory and inflammatory statements only make the situation more dangerous and more confusing – I’ve said it before, and I’ve said it again, DELETE HIS TWITTER ACCOUNT. Kim Jong Un and Trump were trading insults like petty children – though I commend Kim’s (or his translator’s) use of the word dotard to describe Trump. A perfect word.
