Letter: Trump will lead to ruin

What a self-destructive action happened in the presidential election of 2016.

Make America great again? Really? I think that America is a great country, and President Trump is certainly not going to make it anything but a self-centered disaster, kind of like himself. He is alienating our allies, deregulating rules about our environment, kissing up to Russia, poking the bear in North Korea, suggesting taxes that favor the wealthiest, taking away programs that help both the poorest amongst us and the working poor. He needs to be gone.

We will soon see if the people we send to Washington, D.C., really are working for us, or just themselves.

Trump was never a nice guy — if you read about him before he ran for president, you know that he is a bully, a liar, and a cheater. I did not vote for him, obviously, and I cannot believe that anyone else did. Those who are looking at him through rose-colored glasses had better remove them.

He is not helping our country, he will be our ruination.
