He showed contempt for the pillars of our justice system for habeas corpus and birthright citizenship and due process. He declared war on our allies. Those are the ones we need. And he made peace with enemies that we don't need. He took a once booming economy and did everything possible to break it. And at the White House, he tore down the hallowed walls of the East Wing and he demolished the moral values in the West Wing. He looked at every symbol of our nation's democracy, everyone, and thought, how can I make this into a gilded tribute to myself? He has accomplished in his presidency what he never achieved in his business career. He's finally making a profit.
