Representatives doing nothing
I am beginning to believe either our Congress is unwilling or unable to rein in the actions that our president is instituting or inflicting on our country.
It takes no moral courage to stand by while our natural resources are being sold to the highest bidder, and our pristine national parks are being destroyed for greed.
He suggested that television stations be organized, so that the news media would be restricted and monitored as to how the news would be presented.
He has disrespected all of our closest allies, including Mexico, Canada, Germany, England, Japan and France. I believe that it’s time for the voters of this country to contact their representatives in Washington and demand that they do their job. I fear the consequences if our representatives continue to do nothing and let this outlandish behavior continue.
