The person who writes like this is not in their right mind. First of all, his choice of words is not only provocative but also shocking. Calling his opponents ”you devilish asses who are going to hell” is not only unworthy of a president.
It’s unworthy of any civilized person. That’s just not how you express yourself. It doesn’t just hurt him. It casts dark shadows over the entire United States and it tarnishes the presidency.
Islamist extremists often call Christians and Jews ”dogs destined to burn in hell.” That’s already unpleasant. But it’s even more startling when the president of the United States uses the same kind of vocabulary.
Is the man sick? If so, he needs immediate medical attention. Is there no one among his employees who can tell him that in his position one should not behave in this way? No, no one dares. Everyone is terrified of him. No one dares to say anything critical because they know that they will be fired immediately. He has all the power in his hands.
He has also usurped more power than the US Constitution allows. In other words, he does exactly what he pleases. You might be able to do that if you are a real estate billionaire in New York – but not if you are the President of the United States with responsibilities that extend far beyond the borders of the United States.
For example, he has started a devastating war without even asking Congress for permission. He does whatever he feels like at the moment. The combination of ”a lot of power” and ”mental and cognitive failure and poor grounding in reality” is a deadly combination!
When Harry S Truman was later shown the images of the incredible devastation he and the US had caused, he decided never to use the atomic bomb again . No more atomic bombs were to be dropped unless he personally approved them. The bomb has never been used since, not by any nuclear-weapon state.
Nuclear weapons are humanity’s most devastating invention – but because they exist, there is also the risk that they could be used again by some crazy ruler who will stop at nothing – although experts still see and hope that this scenario is very unlikely.
A nuclear war will never end in the same way as a war fought with conventional weapons. A nuclear war ends with millions of people and animals being wiped out, with large parts of the Earth being destroyed and becoming uninhabitable forever.
Here is an example of what could happen if the United States were to be drawn into – or drawn into – a nuclear war. The example is the city of New York:
Giving such unpredictable, injudicious, and untrustworthy someone like Donald Trump such unchecked power over America’s nuclear weapons could therefore carry significant risks. We have seen once before in history what this led to.
I hope and believe that it will never happen again. Don’t let it happen again.
