I hear people say that Trump united his supporters. Maybe he did. But that isn't the job. A president's job is to represent all Americans, including the people who didn't vote for him, and he has failed badly when it comes to that. Read: cbwrong.blogspot.com/2026/09/acti...

A leopard doesn't change its spots because it becomes president. One of the biggest mistakes Americans made was believing the office would change the man. Instead, the man changed the office. Read: cbwrong.blogspot.com/2026/09/acti...

We saw how he treated critics. We saw how he treated women. We saw the accusations of sexual abuse. We saw how he treated minorities. We saw how he handled business disputes. We saw how he responded when things didn't go his way. Read: cbwrong.blogspot.com/2026/09/acti...

Actions Talk I keep hearing that we should judge Donald Trump by his actions, not his words. For once, I completely agree. In fact, I think that's exactly what every voter should have done before voting for him Read: cbwrong.blogspot.com/2026/09/acti...

America was divided before Trump. I know that. But a president doesn't get a free pass because division already existed. A doctor doesn't create a disease, but he can certainly make it worse, and in my opinion, we have become much worse. Read: cbwrong.blogspot.com/2026/09/acti...
