Yvonne Hudson: Trump is an abject failure, why aren’t Republicans removing him from office?

Why is this person in the White House being allowed to divide this country, our friends and families and alienate our allies in the world? He has been an unfaithful and, looks like, unloved husband; a selective at best father, an unscrupulous and bankrupted businessman, and so far a failed President. He is an untrusted ally on the world stage.

Donald Trump gets along great with dictators and thugs, though.

Where are the good Republicans in Congress who will put country over party and stop this cancer before it spreads further, with impeachment and removal from office? If he isn’t stopped, we may see a new civil war in this country and a heightened chance of a nuclear war in our ever shorter future. We, as a majority of concerned and disgusted citizens, need to continue to be seen and heard until this person is removed or quits. We expect our representatives to act now!

Yvonne Hudson, Modesto
