Trump policies are not working

President Donald Trump wanted to see if he could deploy the military internationally, without being reined in by the other branches of government. So, he sent it out to bomb boats, claiming the boats were loaded with drugs, with orders to kill everyone on the boats, even survivors. Trump hasn’t shown us any evidence that the boats carried drugs. So how is that deployment working for you, President Trump, what with the war crimes and all? You are the commander in chief and a commander is responsible for all that his troops do or fail to do. That’s something you would have learned had it not been for those pesky bone spurs.

Then you wanted to see if you could deploy the military domestically in case you might want to use the military against us. So you sent the National Guard into our cities. Not that our cities needed the National Guard. And now a member of the National Guard has been murdered.

It’s ironic that you have viciously attacked Rep. Ilhan Omar, who was born in Somalia, but your attacks on Caribbean shipping make you no different from Somali pirates.

You have appointed the Governor of Louisiana a special envoy to Greenland but, since Greenland is part of Denmark and isn’t a country, I guess you really appointed him to be a special tourist. I hope he’s ignored by Denmark and Greenland.
