Trump presidency all about ego

| February 2, 2017 3:37 PM

This I believe as of this time with present observations: Donald Trump is not really interested in performing as POTUS for the good or our nation and the world. The presidency, for him, is all about himself, his image, and feeding his ego. He thrives on creating confusion, chaos and turmoil while keeping media attention upon himself.

He will rely upon his advisors to cover for him, clean up his statements, and repair the damage he creates. He will depend upon them to do the work of maintaining some semblance of America’s reputation as leader of the free world. In the whole process, he will take credit for all the good and blame others for all the failures.

Only the will of “We the People”, and our sense of purpose in advancing our democracy can overcome this agenda of our president. Only our resolve, our willingness to dialogue and listen to each other and get involved and act responsibly will do the job.

We have a great opportunity before us.
