Well, you're seeing things that I certainly cannot see and I thought I was pretty bright. And Trump has no political performance as yet for you to judge.

Sure he has. Trump has been actively running for office for at least 10 months. He has run his campaign no differently than he has lived his life before he became a political candidate. Trump, like Obama believes that whatever comes out of his mouth will be accepted as wisdom. He tells so many whoppers and makes so many outrageous pronouncements, it is impossible to draTrump off the stage. Think about how absolutely ridiculous that proposal is. After 10 months of making up foreign policy as he goes, Trump says that Saudi Arabia, which gave birth to Al Queda, Osama Bin Laden, and 17 of the 19 terrorists who attacked this nation on 9/11, should have nuclear weapons, along with several other countries that do not already possess them.

Yet, Trump's statement about Saudi Arabia received very little notice in the media. Why? Because Trump has made so many blunders during the past week he has overwhelmed this country's system of holding politicians accountable for making insane statements. You can bet that encouraging Saudi Arabia to arm itself with nuclear weapons did not escape Hillary Clinton's attention.

After 10 months on the presidential campaign trail, Trump does not understand the issues that face this country as well as most of the people who interview him. Finally, after 10 months of campaigning, somebody has apparently persuaded Trump that consulting himself (and his "good brain") on matters of national security is not working. He was in Washington, DC, to assemble a foreign policy team yesterday.

When a man seeks to become leader of the free world, words matter. Being a U.S. President is a serious job. This is not a reality TV show, but Trump needs to stick to a script that projects an image of the seriousness of a grown up - not a many who just stumbles from one gaffe to another.

This country may not survive four more years of a thin skinned tyrant who refuses to take responsibility for his own words and actions. I remember how often Obama whined about unfair treatment by Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh during his presidency. I remember how Obama blamed his own poor performance on George W. Bush throughout his reign as "ruler" of this country. I remember you criticizing Obama for many of the same things that I did.

You are supporting a man who doe not apologize and refuses to take responsibility for his own words and actions. Holding Trump to a lower standard of morality, competence, and judgment than we would hold a career politician to, simply because he is not a career politician and he claims to be a conservative Republican is not something that I will do.
