Trump amnesia

Trump became a one-term president, not because the election was stolen but, because Americans were tired of dealing with the destructiveness, cruelty and chaos of his historically dishonest and narcissistic administration.
Over 60 court cases, many before judges appointed by Trump or other Republican presidents, concluded that a stolen election was just one of the 30,573 documented lies told by Trump while in office.
Trump took us out of the Paris Climate Accord, contributing to record-high temperatures, monster tornadoes, uncontrollable wildfires and catastrophic flooding.
He lied about the seriousness and dangers of Covid, mocking the recommendations of dedicated health professionals, resulting in the unnecessary deaths of countless Americans.
Trump’s trashing of the Iran Nuclear Agreement, while disparaging our NATO allies, served to embolden bad actors such as Hamas and Vladimir Putin, leaving the United States involved in two wars.
A grotesquely unethical Supreme Court, stacked by Trump with ultra-conservative sycophants, believes machine guns are okay, but a woman’s ability to exercise reproductive freedom is not.
The historic bi-partisan immigration bill, which gave conservative Republicans virtually everything they ever wanted to secure our southern border, was de-railed by Trump because he didn’t want to lose a desperately needed campaign issue.
With a record like his, why on earth would any reasonable person want to this twice-impeached, four-time-indicted, one-term president, convicted of 34 felonies, motivated purely by self-interest, vengeance, and ego, to return to office?
He’s already done more than enough damage to our nation, our democracy, and our world.
