19, August 2017 The demise of the Presidency
With each passing day, there is ample evidence that Trump’s presidency is in a state of rapid decline.
In his last press conference, he went off script and voiced his inner demons sowing discord in a nation yearning for racial harmony and unity.
It is perplexing to understand why he found it so difficult to denounce Nazism.
He falsely asserted there was a moral equivalency between the dark forces of white supremacy and those who opposed such beliefs.
The world must have looked in horror at the neo-Nazi marches in Charlottesville which was reminiscent of the “Third Reich” marches in Nazi Germany.
It was gratifying to hear five members of Joint Chiefs of Staff condemning race-based extremism. World leaders from Secretary General António Guterres of the United Nations to Prime Minister Theresa May of Britain condemned intolerance and a failure of leadership in the White House.
Corporate leaders voiced their disapproval by exiting from Trump’s White House advisory councils.
With no steady hand to guide the White House, Trump went on the offensive lanching tweets to shoot down the “fake news” enemies exposing his appalling ignorance of world events.
Mr. Trump was reportedly energized by his Tuesday performance lambasting politically correct forces that he thinks are determined to topple him. He crashed ahead, attacking critics on all sides and delivering Twitter bursts of fake historical nonsense.
