With this blog post I am venturing tenderly onto a tree limb that is getting fuller by the hour with individuals who have said what I am going to declare.

Donald John Trump is insane! He may be certifiably so. He has gone mad. Bonkers,

I mean, can you name a president of the United States who ever has said he wanted to wipe a civilization off the face of the Earth? Can anyone find a historical reference to such utter madness? Trump said that if Iran doesn’t comply with his demands to end the war that Trump launched against Tehran that he would annihilate the population. They would be gone. All dead.

That is genocide in its rawest form, kids. And Trump has declared that he would be willing to drop the bombs to do the job.

We have established that the POTUS has made the declaration. That is an unlawful order if one has ever existed. No flag officer worth his or her honor would follow such an order. But you get my drift, yes? Of course you do!

Donald Trump need not say another word for the rest of his miserable life. He has established clearly his intention as commander in chief. He has gone ’round the bend!

Now comes the real hard part. Invoking the 25th Amendment to the Constitution that enables Trump to be removed from office. Such an act requires Republicans to join their Democratic colleagues in moving such an act forward. Based on what we all have witnessed, there aren’t enough GOP members of Congress or members of the Cabinet to say that “enough is enough!”

I feel better now that I’ve gotten it off my chest. I take no pleasure in joining the growing chorus. But, dammit! … the guy is beyond redemption.
