There is a touch of humor here and there to lighten up this alphabetic review of Trump's three years in office, but the subject matter is fateful to America's future. Trump is dangerous; his shortsightedness, mental instability, and ominous off-the-cuff statements could spark unintended horrifying consequences for America and the world.

The Republican party, which is deeply engrossed in partisan politics, has become the enabler of Trump, ignoring that they were elected not to protect the president but America's global and national security interests, and the wellbeing of the American people. Every member of the Republican party establishment will be held responsible for not rising and stopping Trump from causing irreparable damage to the country's global leadership role, moral standing, and the social and political injury that he has inflicted on the nation.

Any individual, let alone the president, who praises Putin's RussiaAmerica's foremost enemyand in the same breath severely criticizes and disparages our most esteemed institutions, especially the intelligence agencies and the judiciary, is tantamount to treason. How could any Republican official who claims to put the country's security and safety first remain silent in the face of this unfolding perilous development? And worse yet, how could they continue to support a president who is unstable, unpredictable, and unfit to occupy the chair of the president? But then here we are, Trump will soon face trial in the Senate following his impeachment in the House, but there is hardly a single Republican member of Congress who has called for a fair trial and agreed to call witnesses and present documents that could potentially incriminate him.

This is the greatest travesty committed by the Party of Lincoln to whom the Constitution was nothing but a sacred document. Now the Republicans are unabashedly willing to toss it down the river. They put party and personal interest first, and allow a lawless President to act like a monarcha so-called president who has never been able to rise above the fray to the determined of the national security and wellbeing of the country. Judgment day is fast approaching.
