She said its obvious he is trying to end the government with picking people to stop every department.

When you think about all the bankruptcies he has had he must believe destroying things is ok.

He wants to be known as doing big things, but that only works if the replacement is better.

When i read of his temperament I fear he will punish us for speaking up, but we can't stop because maybe he'll have a mental breakdown and that will make him step down.
