I love you Jonathan. I always read and watch you. I am so fearful of the way this country is going under Trump and I am fearful of the people who agree with him. We studied Nazi Germany and this is how it started. Trump admires the Nazis. We have to fight him with everything we have. But what happened to the Republicans? Why are they falling in line? It so reminds us of Nazi Germany. I am so glad I am old and will not live to see the further destruction of my beautiful country. I am scared for the children and what they are being taught under this President. He is an abomination to this country. I am so fearful. Democrats will have to use every power available to win this election or we are doomed.

Mr. Capehart I do not elect my President to be a perfect human being....I look at the results...Your accusations on the President's behavior seems to have taken precedent over results in this 2019 diatribe. Would you take Churchill's behavior over his results? This is all alot of noise in the age of social media. I do not want a priest, rabbi or mulah as a chief executive. You seem to want to that. Sorry I am not down with it.
