PER CURIAM: Martin Werner appeals the district court’s order dismissing his civil action pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2) (2012). We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Werner v. Trump, No. 2:17-cv-00396RGD-RJK (E.D. Va. filed July 31, 2017 & entered Aug. 1, 2017). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process. AFFIRMED 2
