Feeling betrayed


I, as an American veteran, feel that we who have served and those who are serving in our military now are being let down by the rest of you. Many have died for you, for America.


Our constitution is based on an ideal that all men are created equal. Why do you put some groups of people on pedestals, treating them above everyone else? Why do you keep knocking down the poor or treating others who are not like you as trash? Why do you keep supporting the things that are destroying or planet? Why do you focus on the things that divide us instead of that which can brings us together? Why do you not help make America great, NOT GREAT AGAIN? Help make America a country that other countries want to be like. Do your part.


We all need to feel, to believe, that we are a part of the whole. That we work towards the greater good. America can’t be any farther from this ideal than how we are today. We are so divided. We can’t talk with each other without getting into arguments. Many of us are afraid to say anything at all anymore.
  

Here is another reason I feel betrayed. I feel that or president, Trump, is selling out America to Russia for personal wealth and power. To me there is more evidence pointing towards his guilt than innocence. If there is nothing going on between Trump and Putin then why does Trump keep talking with him? Why aren’t there other Americans present when they talk? Why isn’t Trump going after the Russians who have been working so hard to affect or democratic elections? This is America, our elections, not Russia’s or any other countries for that fact.  Why does Trump take the word of Putin and other dictators over the word of Americans? Why is Trump trying so hard to keep his financial information a secret?
