President Trump is just a bully

To the editor:

We can’t classify everyone that supports President Trump as a Nazi or Klansman. However, it is becoming increasingly difficult to believe some don’t have a share in a fascist belief system that props up and gives power to a leader like the president.

If the polls are right that 90 percent of the Republicans are still supporting Trump even though the administration is responsible for separating innocent children from their immigrant parents at the borders, something has gone terribly wrong with a large part of the conscience of America. 

Every human being came from a mother and a father. We all bleed and breathe alike, no matter where we come from or how much money or material things we acquired in life. 

In my opinion, and from observing the behavior of President Trump, he strikes me as being a selfish, spoiled 72-year-old man who never evolved from a childhood bully. He is like a twisted, lying, crazy unruly child in a grown-up 72-year-old body.

We can’t expect him to have empathy or sympathy for other human beings. It is not in his DNA. And I suspect many of his diehard followers share the same traits.
