1) Eisenhower warned us about demagogic extremists who provoke mob rule. We now have one occupying the White House.

2) Eisenhower spoke of how America's communist enemies were gloating over the Little Rock incident. The descendants of those same enemies, our leading adversarial nation, now gloats that it has installed its puppet in the White House.

3) Eisenhower extolled respect for the rule of law, and how we are a nation of laws, not of men. No such ideas or principles concern the current occupant of the White House.

4) Eisenhower was firmly behind the desegregation of public schools; Trump would re-segregate them if he possibly could.
