Donald Trump is a clear and present danger to the United States and it’s inhabitants. That alone is enough to get rid of him. Then there is the rest of the world...he could be the most dangerous person in the world. He’ll love that.

10. This is exactly how I feel

and how I’ve felt from the moment he “won” in 2016. Such a creepy feeling, to realize that the greatest threat to our national security is in the Oval Office. We are in danger every minute that he continues to occupy that office.

Why are we so shocked this morning, this is Trump, he has been on this rant ever since he was elected, blaming everything that goes wrong on these helpless people who he hates with a passion, this is the presidency of hate, it is what some people wanted and now they have it, I hope they are satisfied.The rest of the world (mostly our allies) are in shock at what we have become.

I am afraid for the USA - what is even more scary is how many people are still asleep including some of my own relatives

I think the new message should be

Resign

And every Republican with a moral conscience should be sending him that message.

20. No, just arrest and put on trial asap. Charge him with accessory to assault and murder

Plus treason, bribery, witness tampering, violation of election finance laws, money laundering,
multiple felonies, etc. Oh, I forgot, also sexual assault and rape (including underage women most likely).

We need to lay the escalation in domestic terrorism by white nationalists and gun violence at Trump’s feet. We need an ad that runs continuously showing anti-immigrant clips from his rallies in overlaid with the numbers from the mass murders taking place since his inauguration. A clip of the Charlottesville rally with the torches and chants of “Jews will not replace us” and the clip from the Trump saying there are good people on both sides along with the clip of the car racing toward and killing Heather Heyer with words like “Heather Heyer, murdered by white nationalist James Alex Fields.” And many more clips from the Philadelphia synagogue killings to Gilroy, El Paso, and whatever mass shootings from 2018-2019 were done by white nationalists. There have been far too many.

I do not have the technical skills to do this, but Trump needs to be held accountable. He has the bully pulpit, and he is using it to incite his followers to violence and murder.
