I expected Donald Trump to pardon his comrades in crime, but never in my wildest dreams did I think he would show just how much of a bottom-feeder he is by pardoning four convicted killers of 17 civilian men, women and children in Iraq. How could such a loathsome person ever become president of the United States?
To Trump supporters, I believe the term “deplorables” is way too generous of a term for the kind of people you truly must be. Your continued support of Trump clearly shines a light on your lack of basic humanity, sense of justice, and yes, your innate cruelty,
