President Donald Trump has threatened imprisonment and even death for Sen. Mark Kelly, who did nothing but say the truth. The truth is that American soldiers are required to disobey unlawful orders. This is part of the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

Mr. Trump went on television and purposely misapplied federal law in support of his position. This was a lie. Lies are not compatible with the American Constitution. I don’t believe that Mr. Trump is actually able to understand this truth. He thinks he can change reality with just a lie. He does not know the truth from falsity. This is a fatal flaw for a U. S. president.

I hope this country survives the next two years, at which time we can say goodbye to this very sick man.

Trump and the convicted rioters should be sitting in a federal prison in orange jumpsuits. But, unfortunately, he was re-elected and now the country and the world have to suffer his revenge, wrath and dictatorial bent.

The United States needs to make sure that it is not over-investing in the weapons systems of the past, although a defense budget on the scale that Trump is discussing would relieve some pressure from these choices.

Can someone explain to me why, with the capture of Nicolas Maduro, the people in Venezuela are celebrating while the people in America are protesting and demanding his release?
