First and foremost, with all my heart and soul, do I support the Constitution of the United States, which gives me the right to express my opinion. As a former Active Duty United States Marine, I value my freedoms, my family, my friends, and the opportunity to live in this great Country.

I have lived my life as a Conservative[1], and supported the Republican Party over the Democratic Party more times than not. But no more. This current Republican Party is nothing more than a flock of sheep, who blindly follow a Herder that cares more about his personal quest, ideology, and ego than that of our Country. It is this Herder's: self promotion, self interest, bigoted, partisan politics, and Tweets that have motivated me to put together these words. Thus the title of this document. Our Commander in Tweet's timeline[2] on the Covid-19 (Coronavirus) should not be confused with reality.

The integrity of this Herder first started to show its colors when commenting about grabbing females by their crotch, stating John McCain[3] is not a war hero and then back peddling from his previous comments, not fully divesting from the Emoluments Clause, does not know the meaing of Nepotism, disrespecting the National Anthem, and climaxed with name calling, which is easily outwitted by a third grade bully. This grifter eludes the truth by redirecting the blame to others, and can/will not admit to errors, mistakes, or failures. To me, a man takes ownership of errors, mistakes, and failures, while at the same time has no need to take personal credit for success. Case in point: the quarterback of a winning football team is not the reason for success, the entire team working together is the sole result for the outcome. When team players such as General James Mattis , along with others, resign from this Commander In Tweet's cabinet, the citizens of this country should question this Herder's intellect and ambitions.

The recent Covid-19 (Coronavirus), and our Commander in Tweet's initial denials: calling the situation a hoax, preaching falsehoods to his flock multiple times, backing away from facts, blaming others, and then pulling support for the World Health Organization; has exacerbated this situation, not only for the United States but the entire Planet as a whole, and pushed this generation into a dire circumstance.

I don't blame the Commander in Tweet for the virus. I point my finger at him for his failure to lead. Claiming an unproven hydroxychloroquine is a possible coronavirus cure, and the telling of so many lies[9] is so repulsive that I am at a loss for words and disgusted by his leadership. Furthermore, his belittling and insulting the press exemplifies his ignorance of the freedom of the press which is in the First Amendment to the US Constitution and required for a free society. We can, and should, have our differences. But this should not include hatred or discrimination based on tribal rivalries. Demeaning an individual, society, or culture is an unscrupulous way to enhance ones self worth in the eyes of others. His claim he has Ultimate Authority discloses his ignorance of the Constitution. He leads not from the front, but his self-supporting podium, surrounded by his flock. His military draft deferments and Bone Spurs assertion is revolting beyond belief.

If the flock wants to follow this Pied Piper that's there choice. However, I cannot, nor will I support him or his subordinates, such as: Senators Mike Lee and Lindsey Graham, and Congressman Chris Stewart, to name a few. This Country needs to unite. Unfortunately I know not whom should take the helm, no prospective candidate makes me comfortable, but I hope and pray the United States will once again be on the same page, and make me more proud to be a citizen of this great Country.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. But this is not the case in which I speak. If it's broken, do you fix it or throw it away? I say throw it away and start anew. Unify, don't divide. E pluribus unum is Latin for "out of many, one". The United States of America is a Republic practicing Democracy, not a Prictatorship.

If you find my opinion offensive you are probably part of the flock. Either way, you have the option to write "your own opinion"[4,5], but please refrain from regurgitating echos of said flock, and share it with me[5] and/or the world. Better yet, convince me why I should refer to him as Commander in Chief[8].
