This is scary stuff.
This poll shows how divided we are. 91% of Republicans and 5% of Democrats approve of Trump’s performance.
Here are other polls on Ohio politics:
This breaking story states: “The New York attorney general on Thursday filed suit against President Trump and his three eldest children alleging “persistently illegal conduct” at the president’s personal charity, saying Trump repeatedly misused the nonprofit — to pay off his businesses’ creditors, to decorate one of his golf clubs and to stage a multimillion dollar giveaway at his 2016 campaign events.”
The alleged violations aren’t really news. The Washington Post has been reporting for years about shady actions by the charity such as buying pictures of Trump.
Trump’s response:

This article states: “A senior advisor to the State Department appointed just two months ago has been quietly vetting career diplomats and American employees of international institutions to determine whether they are loyal to President Donald Trump and his political agenda, according to nearly a dozen current and former U.S. officials. ”
Career civil servants are loyal to the country and the Constitution, not the individual who is president at the moment. This is scary stuff.
I found this on Twitter.
Putin should be thrilled by the damage Trump is doing to our alliances with other countries. I don’t think Putin could ask for more from Trump.
This is disgraceful The US doesn’t have a better ally. Meanwhile, Trump sucks up to dictators.
a different poll:
This is similar to Nixon and to Trump’s own comments last year when he said the press was the enemy of the people. This is how dictators act.
