All Living Former Presidents Should Repudiate Trump

over his claim that they never called families of fallen soldiers. They should do it in no uncertain terms. It is far past time to condemn Donald Trump for his lies and excuses, and our former Presidents should be the ones to do it.

Let them express their disgust with this man in the White House who tarnishes the office of President.

They already have the One America Appeal group to campaign for disaster relief. They could expand it to fundraise for vets and rebuke Trump’s lies at the same time. Then they could do the same for mental health services when they are ready to push for the 25th Amendment on Donnie.
