Subject:  Donald Trump

I watched your segment this week on the Fox News channel “Hannity Show”.  I was surprised at your attitude toward Donald Trump.  Let me explain with an analogy.

Imagine some kind of metal mechanism, which has not been properly maintained and, after years of neglect, has become severely corroded, to the point it no longer performs its intended function.  Simply applying sustaining and preventive maintenance techniques will not restore the mechanism to a properly functioning condition.

The mechanism will require extraordinary measures to remove the corrosion, and will probably require replacing a number of defective elements.  And sometimes it’s necessary to tear it apart and then rebuild it piece by piece, if you think it’s worth saving.

I submit our Congress, from years of neglect, greed and ineptitude, has reached a state of such corrosion and resulting corruption that nothing short of a major overhaul will yield any meaningful change.

Sad to say, but we have become no different than most ‘banana republics’ or the African ‘democracies’ that emerged from European colonialization post WWII.  Our bureaucracies are bloated with sycophants and myrmidons of the ruling party, people who possess no qualifications, experience or passion for their duties, responsibilities and obligations.  And worse, our governmental leaders ignore their oaths of office and pick and choose which laws to enforce based on their own ideologies, sensibilities and political motives.

I am not an anarchist and I don’t wish to tear down the system.  However, the system needs a major overhaul and Donald Trump is the only candidate speaking of such extraordinary measures.
