Donald Trump has been a destructive president operating without congressional oversight nor adherence to the U.S. Constitution.
He instituted multiple tariff taxes and started a multi-country war without congressional approval, broke agreements on climate change and Iran’s nuclear agreement without congressional oversight.
He repeatedly makes false statements, and he is a convicted felon. He has no respect for the U.S. Constitution or U.S. courts.
He appoints unqualified people and inexperienced personnel. Accepts emoluments and facilitates family businesses while in the presidential office. He’s unsympathetic for those families having relatives wounded or killed in war or from the resulting aftermath of climate change.
Many of these traits were known at the time he was re-elected. How or why was he reelected? My answer is that five people made it possible for him to be president.
The Supreme Court voted 5 to 4 to make it possible for unlimited amounts of money to be donated to a candidate’s campaign. One individual contributed more than $291 million while five other individuals donated more than $100 million each, bringing the totals of these six donors to close to $1 billion. It’s fair to say a few rich people bought the election of Trump as result of the court ruling in the case of Citizens United.
There used to be limits on the amount an individual or organization can contribute to an election campaign. These restrictions should be reinstated.
The Supreme Court often researches past legal decisions to support their verdict. Sometimes, a commonsense ruling is more appropriate.
