Republicans Feel the Need for Change

The inevitability of impeachment is approaching especially if key Republicans may decide Trump is too great a danger for the country. Key important officials are bailing and jumping from Trump’s sinking ship from FBI, CIA, Generals   and Secretary of States. Hundreds of Trump’s hand- picked folks in government positions have already resigned or was fired for no apparent reason other than King Trump’s sleight of hand.

We are on the road to change the President and Vice-President as Vice-President Spiro Agnew was in trouble too many years ago. We lost Nixon and Agnew within a year. Our current Republican Senate has sided against Trump’s decisions twice now. The Republicans hate his treatment of inaction with the Saudi’s who killed a Journalist living in America and on the abandonment in the war on Yemen. Even Lindsey Graham, Trump’s great ally criticized Trump’s handling of   the head of the Pentagon General  Mattis  leaving. Chief of Staff Kelly left too. Our Justice Department Chief  Jeff Sessions left along with the Secretary of State Rex Tillerson. All these devoted men were in high government positions and are Republicans. Even Mitch McConnell the Republican Senator Majority Leader is distancing himself from Trump and his wacky decisions.

Have the Republican leadership realized finally that it is time for change especially that Trump’s extreme not so well thought out decisions are causing Americans to suffer with now his government shutdown? He is already making us suffer from contaminated lettuce and farm foods because he took out the Clean Water Act. His tariffs are costing us higher prices for everything we need to buy or sell and as a result we have lost all our gains in the stock market over the past two years. Now he is giving control of Syria and Afghanistan over to the Russians after 20 years of our dead soldiers fought to restore democracy in those regions.

The degree of worry is on Capitol Hill and the realization that Trump is a dangerous man abusing the power of the Presidency is astounding. At least now that the Democrats have taken over the House of Representatives and will be moving forward on anti-corruption and voting rights legislation and jump starting investigations into the Trump’s Administration corruption that until now the Republicans have not been so interested in sorting out. The New Year is supposed to mean a fresh start. Trump has created a hot mess already this year. He has used the immigration issue as a political football. The system is broken and hasn’t been tweaked since the mid 1990’s.

There have been deaths of children on American soil due to neglect. This should never happen in America the place where people settle from all over the world. Trump’s appointed Head of Homeland Security, Kirstjen Nielsen who is in charge of the immigration situation should be fired and take responsibility for the conditions children are being held in, for the lack of record keeping of families that now we have permanent orphans, that there are workers hired to care for these children who have not been required to have background checks for their worthiness to work with children. America was much greater without Trump.
