I’m a Republican and have twice been selected to be a delegate at a Republican Convention.
However, I was one of the seven million Americans who participated in the Oct. 18, “No Kings” protest against President Trump. He rules like a king. He claims national emergencies so he can rule by executive order. He attacks those who don’t agree with him. He has announced that he would add an additional 10% tariff on goods imported from Canada, because Ontario, Canada ran an ad critical of his tariffs.
I’m glad the Senate voted on Oct. 29 to end Trump’s emergency declaration to impose tariffs. I hope the House also votes to end his emergency declarations.
