I’ve been adding things up. Our government is unmanned at the highest levels in many crucial areas, most worrisomely in the State Department, the head of which is in deep for Russian oil. So many of President Trump’s cabinet members have ties to Russia. Mr. Trump has given Russia status by meeting one-on-one with Vladimir Putin. Disturbingly, many Christians on the right now are enthralled with Mr. Putin. Departments are being dismantled, as many of our individual protections are being voted away by Congress.

Even (or especially) if you are a Trump supporter, look carefully at what is happening. Is our government being subverted by a foreign and malignant power? Do people not understand that Mr. Putin is a brutal dictator and an enemy of democracy?

For the first time ever, I’m worried about the future of my country.
