The basic tenets of democracy are a promotion of the truth instead of constant lies, and a trust in the leadership of government, that who is in power can be seen as acceptable to have power.
On both counts, Donald Trump fails miserably.
The man tells more lies than any President or any political figure in American history.
He refuses to admit any errors or mistakes, and never apologizes.
He cannot tolerate opposition, which is basic to any democracy.
He terrifies millions of Americans, who are fearful of the effect he is having on our system of government, and sense that he is going to lead us into World War III.
He consorts with dictators in Egypt, Turkey, the Philippines, Russia, and elsewhere, and overtly praises the strong man leadership in nations, while attacking our allies in democracies.
He is dismissive of women, and one can see that his mixed relations with Great Britain and Germany are due to their having women leaders, Theresa May and Angela Merkel.
He is on the way to being rated the absolutely worst President in American history, and raising the image of failed or terrible Presidents, including Richard Nixon, George W. Bush, Andrew Johnson, James Buchanan, Franklin Pierce, and Warren G. Harding.
Donald Trump is a menace to American democracy and world peace and order.
Great news! First charges filed in Mueller investigation!

Thanks for that Former Republican! This suggests to me that he most likely is indicting someone early to get him/her to flip. The obvious candidate is Paul Manafort.
Could be Flynn. Junior or Kushner would be great too!
It is now put-up-or-shut-up time for the Corkers and Flakes.
Trump is going to come for Mueller.
This probe must be protected at all costs.
We’ll end up in a war (conventional or nuclear) before the weekend’s out, so Trump can “wag the dogâ€.
God forbid that, Rational Lefty!
I was right! First one heading to jail is Manafort! 🙂 Not just money laundering and tax fraud but conspiracy against the US!

In addition to Manafort and Gates being indicted, Trump’s campaign foreign policy adviser George Papadopoulos plead guilty to lying to the FBI about the Trump campaign’s Russia contacts.

Trump can no longer claim there is no evidence of collusion between his campaign and Russia.
Net grows wider. Papadopoulos is tied to Sessions.

M.A.G.A.= Many Are Getting Arrested!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOL! How Fox “News” is covering it: https://thinkprogress.org/all-the-things-fox-news-has-been-talking-about-instead-of-robert-mueller-1673b115817a/
Dump has hit a new low. Now at 33%. How low can he go?!

Ha! Ha! Front page of this morning’s NY Daily News! https://mobile.twitter.com/W7VOA/status/925180758968422401
Washington Post had a report that Dump had a hissy fit over the news of the indictments.

I love it when Dump has a bad day.
This is absolutely despicable. This morning the “President” of the United States joined efforts to blame the minority leader of the Senate for a terrorist attack in his home state.
