During the five years in which Donald Trump has occupied the White House, many things have become known about who and what he is, his character, moral standards and fitness for office. The following is an incomplete list of the words that I think best describe the man America elected to serve our country and be the leader of the free world; liar, fraud, cheat, draft evader, bully, fear monger, sex offender, felon, narcissist, divider, avenger, provocateur, insurrectionist, authoritarian, imperialist, Putin pal, occupier and, finally, twice impeached and an indicted conspirator and obstructionist.
For children who grew up in the 1950s and ’60s, it was common to hear that America was the land of opportunity and that anyone could grow up to be president. It is a sad day for our country that Donald Trump grew up to be one.
