I admit and apologize for this article that lacks continuity and a flow of thought. These points are my opinion.

President Trump has surrounded himself with abusers, convicts, drunks with no expertise. To me their jobs are way over their heads.

Trump makes us less safe by alienating allies. He says they’re not needed.

Cutting USAID means many people are now dying or seriously ill worldwide. Cuts to Medicaid will do the same. We have a Health and Human Services secretary with no medical degree making statements that are idiotic. Again, people will die or become ill. Nothing new from last time, when it was reported that 40% of covid deaths may have been prevented with better leadership.

How can the U.S. stand by watching the annihilation of Ukraine? Nothing learned from history there. Trump is not a negotiator, he is a capitulator to dictators, and even that isn’t going well.

Criticizing the existence of the Affordable Care Act with no alternative? Take health care away and more people will die.

The issue is, how much more blood will be on Trump’s hands in the coming years for his decisions? There’s not enough print space to discuss the tariff debacle, potential Veterans Affairs cuts, ignoring due process and Elon Musk and his 4-year-old kid. All this makes me sick. Shameful he was ever put in office.
