First Lady a sanctimonious hypocrite
You’re absolutely right, Michelle Obama. Trump’s behavior cannot be ignored. And neither can your sanctimonious hypocrisy. You have welcomed into the White House entertainers whose depraved behavior and lyrics have degraded and demeaned women for decades. You have honored them in the eyes of your own daughters. You have made Beyoncé and her ilk role models.
The country is sick of the status quo and change will come, hopefully in this election. But it has definitely come in the minds and hearts of fed up citizens.

Trump must put stop to incendiary rhetoric
In light of recent happenings, it seems likely that Donald Trump will lose the upcoming presidential election, barring any unforeseen events.
What is most troubling to me is that his incendiary rhetoric of late will have the effect of further inciting and baiting his already revved-up supporters, particularly those who hate his opponent and want Trump to be president regardless of his record, his persona, and the various revelations about his behavior.
I’m concerned that an already sharply divided electorate will become increasingly vitriolic and will permanently alter our stable, orderly democratic process and what has been, up to now, a smooth transition from one administration to the next.
Trump should , at this time, calm his rhetoric, man up to the probability that he will lose the election, stop the calls to “put her in jail,” stop calling the election process “rigged” ( which he will do if he loses), and try to become a statesman instead of a provocateur.
