Letting Trump Go

I'M NOT SAYING DONALD TRUMP IS A bad person. he certainly looks the part, but what do I know? Only what I am told, and what I see. His actions speak louder than his words, which speak volumes, and reveal much.They reveal a pathologically dishonest person obsessed with a need for attention, a person unable to control his anger when reasonably criticized, a narcissist, a racist, and misogynist, a slinger of vicious slander who hits back twice as hard. Everyone in the United States of a certain age and intelligence sees this, including his supporters, who see it though they don't want to. That his supporters remain his supporters is shockingly frightening, and says much about their character and judgment. As an aside, two of trump's earliest supporters in Congress, Chris Collins and Duncan Hunter, are no under indictment for various financial crimes; birds of a feather. Can you imagine teh hue and cry among conservatives if Obama or Hillary Clinton behaved exactly as Trump behaves, and were in exactly the same situation? you can, and it aint pretty. What Trump and his supporters lack in character and integrity they compensate for with dishonesty, denial, and anger. Trump may be a bit rough around the edges, they say, but at least he has made America great again, somehow or other, and at least he aint Hillary Clinton. Nor is he half black with African roots and an affinity to the Islamic faith. Trump supporters are pathetic, laughable, to be pitied for their continued folly. But they have a way otu, if they would only take it. We made a mistake. WE conservative Christian republicans love this country as deeply as anyone, so much that we make passionate decisions, not always rooted in fact and reason. We should have supported Ted Cruz, a fine Christian conservative. Let's make the change now, before the noose around Trump tightens more, tightens so much that it strangles the political process, adn let us move on, with renewal and pure hearts and minds. Then Mike Pence, a solid Christian conservative, would become president, and all would be well in the land of the right wing. It would be that simple. If only they would.
