Your loyalty to the candidate you voted for is admirable. Misplaced, but admirable. The candidate that both you and I voted for is not the one who is currently residing in the nations White House.
I call your attention to the article in ZeroHedge this morning "Trump Flips on Five Core Campaign Promises in 24 Hours".
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-04-12/trump-flips-five-core-key-campaign-promises-under-24-hoursAdd to that his flip flop on less intervention in the Middle East, support for Ryan's "insurance company written healthcare plan", threatening the "freedom caucus" members for voting their conscience in opposing that bill, turning on his National Security Advisor Michael Flynn when there was no actual proof of collusion with Russia, and his many cabinet appointments of "swamp creatures".
I do give him credit for the conservative supreme court judge pick, and a number of good initial executive orders. But on balance, this is not the man I voted for.
Is it unreasonable Don to expect honesty and integrity from your President? Do you really believe Don that Trump buys into the false narrative that al-Assad intentionally used CW's on Syria's civilian population as Trump claims? His intelligence people don't believe this, and it defies all logic and reason:
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-04-11/intelligence-and-military-sources-who-warned-about-wmd-lies-iraq-war-now-say-assad-dhttp://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-04-06/evidence-calls-western-narrative-about-syrian-chemical-incident-questionI don't claim to know the reasons why Trump is following the "deep state" narrative that Russia is the boogy man, al-Assad must now leave office, and escallations of tension with Russia is a good strategy. Is it to dispel the notion that he is Putin's puppet? Is he being blackmailed by our intelligence community? Has he always been part of the zionist-neocon movement and simply marketed himself as the "change agent" and properly read the anger, and frustration of middle class America? Maybe we will never know. But I will state it again. This is not the man or the policies that I voted for, and I will not be silent while I watch him violate all the positions that he took as a candidate, and which got him elected as President.
