The Republican ship is on fire.

Republicans everywhere, a message of alarm, the party of Lincoln and Reagan has lost its way profoundly.

Donald Trump promised no new wars, and to end the war in Ukraine, to lower prices, pay down the national debt, release the Epstein files, the list goes on. All broken promises and campaign lies.

Trump has damaged crucial alliances with NATO, Europe, Canada, etc. He has asked our military to perform tasks that may be war crimes. He openly admires dictators Vladimir Putin and Viktor Orban, and North Korean supreme leader Kim Jong Un. His foreign policy is extremely chaotic and destructive.

He has threatened judges for supporting the Constitution, fired military leaders when their views differ from his and intimidated the members of Congress. He has violated, ignored and disregarded the Constitution. He has called immigrants vermin and called Democrats and journalists enemies of the people and animals. He calls peaceful protesters terrorists and anarchists. He has turned immigration agencies into violent paramilitary mobs. National debt surpassed $39 trillion.

Few Republicans in Congress or anywhere speak up to oppose even the most illegal and unconstitutional policies and statements from the Trump administration for fear of being attacked.

All of these actions, age related mental decline or incapacity, and lack of understanding the basic tenets of the Constitution, make Trump unfit to continue to serve as president.
