One of the puzzling mysteries to me to this day, is how anyone of sound mind could listen to some of the horror stories told by ex Trump officials, and still think that Trump is qualified to do the job of Commander-In-Chief.
Just finished watching former Secretary of Defense Mark Esper, who was featured earlier today on 60 Minutes. He talks about his experience working at the White House.
According to Mark Esper, Trump wanted the U.S. military to attack and shoot missiles into Mexico, one of our closest neighbors and largest trading partners. Doing that would not only violate international law, it would set a terrible precedent.
During a Washington DC protest, Trump wanted to unleash 10,000 paratroopers into the streets of Washington DC with weapons and bayonets. "Can't you just shoot them, just shoot the protesters in the legs or something?", Trump asked. Trump suggested that we should bring in the troops and shoot the protesters in the streets of our nation's capital, Esper said."
Those are the same type of scenarios that you see at Banana Republics and authoritarian regimes in foreign countries. This is exactly how they deal with protesters.
Like I said earlier, it is a mystery to me how nearly half of the voting population wants to keep this monster as President. How did our country sink so far, and so many are willing for another try with the Orange Turd at the helm?
