John Brennan: President Trump‘s recent posts are extremely disturbing. The one showing him hitting PM Carney with a hockey stick in the stomach is deranged. It’s hard to believe 77 million Americans voted for this.

Just a reminder. Donald Trump is the first convicted felon elected president. The first president who is an adjudicated rapist. A president whose name appears thousands of times in the files of a notorious pedophile and child trafficker. A president who is not allowed to run a charity in New York.

The cyclospora outbreak has reached 17,180 cases across 48 states. The FDA has recalled 1.6 million eggs due to salmonella contamination. Screwworm cases continue to rise. And we’ve just surpassed 2,700 measles cases (including 2 recent deaths) — a 35 year high. “Make America Healthy Again.”

Trump is not an “alleged” rapist. He’s an adjudicated rapist. The court ruled that the wrongful conduct he was adjudicated to have committed—sexual assault—could be correctly described as rape. Somehow he still sits in the Oval Office. 1/

Lucky us! Five Supreme Court justices still hold that the Constitution is constitutional. Four justices no longer believe that the Constitution, and specifically its 14th amendment, is constitutional. It’s time to clean up this mess. We must prioritize expansion and reformation of the Court.

Trump is the great revealer. I’ve learned so much through friends’ and family’s reactions to him or lack thereof. The utter and complete lack of moral clarity by some still astounds me. Most of the things I’ve learned I wish I had not. But once known, they cannot be unknown. It’s sad, and so am I.
