From January 2017 Until 2023 Trump Faced Indictments and Investigations


Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart 

 

For the first time in history, and hopefully the last, a President of the United States was under investigation for criminal actions from his first day in office. The day was January 20, 2017, and the illegitimate president inaugurated on that dark day was Donald John Trump.  


Trump immediately faced allegations from 26 women of sexual misconduct. His policies focused on Muslims, and later Hispanics resulted in charges of racism and bigotry. He was under investigation for misuse of donations to his minimal inauguration. A letter signed by 25 reputable psychiatrists claimed that Trump was mentally unstable and unfit to lead our country. The list was long before he made his first state of the union address. 


His actions became more extreme. Trump was impeached by the U.S. House of Representatives for the first time on December 18, 2019. The articles of impeachment charged him with abuse of power and\ obstruction of Congress. However, Moscow Mitch McConnell refused to hold a fair trial in the senate, and he was acquitted without one witness or additional evidence. His second impeachment came in 2021 after he organized an attempted coup on January 6. Once again, the ensuing trial became a farce. 


Over a four-year period Trump spent little time in the White House, and when he was present, he watched Fox News constantly. Most of his time was spent golfing, holding infamous hate rallies for his cult, and partying at his millionaires only club, Mar-a-Lago. He was the most expensive president in history. Over four years his administration accomplished nothing with the exception of being responsible for thousands of deaths when the Covid-19 pandemic attacked our nation’s people and he did nothing but tell us, “it will just go away.”


However, this American traitor remains in the news. He has been indicted in three separate cases and could face more. His third came this week. He has been indicted on four charges related to the darkest day in our nation’s history when his army of Neo-Nazis attempted to halt the confirmation of the Electoral College vote. 


After three felony indictments, he is facing 78 counts in three courts, and yet he wants to be your illegitimate president for a second time. What the hell has happened to the country of my youth? This is not my America, and I hope it’s not yours. For the first time in my life I am ashamed to be an American citizen. Although the United States has never been a great country, in the 21st century it may be tnd he worst.
