The grievances listed against George III in the Declaration look remarkably like they could be grievances against dumBO.

One example:
“He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.”

Sound familiar. He won’t enforce the laws on the books and fights states that try to enforce even Federal law.

I wish I had the time to go one by one through the list - but nearly every example provided is applicable directly or by analogy (another example - “He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.” The colonies were trying to grow as a way to strengthen their hold on the land, build the economy. This president is obstructing the Laws for Naturalization in reverse, encouraging people to come who are a burden on taxpayers).

Good opportunity for someone with the time to update the Declaration with the Facts applied to the current Tyrant.
