For years, the prevailing unanswered question has been “when will his rank and objectionable behavior be rejected for what it is—inconsistent with the stated values of our nation, destructive to our status in the world community and ultimately damaging to our recent history and legacy?”
For too long, #45’s political party has allowed partisan interests to supersede our national interests. Leaders in his party who could have offered influential challenges to his numerous bad acts and failures—domestically and internationally—have shrunken from their responsibility. Until appropriate shame engulfs Republicans and yanks them out of their self-made trap of compliance and complicity with Trump, they will languish in an ever-diminishing trash heap of insignificance.
#45’s party has embraced a strategy of political immediacy. Like a glutton who has been ushered into a banquet hall, Republicans have dived into their long awaited meal of political dominance with little regard for the suffering THEY will experience at the dawn of a new day. With little thought given to future consequence, they craft laws today that will be repealed when the pendulum of political power swings in the other direction.
I liken Trump Republicans to consumers of illegal steroids that have built their strength, but will ultimately lead them to their early demise. I call upon Republican leaders and those who support #45 to bring him into check before he leads your party and, more importantly, our nation into disaster. His offense is too great and an apology is not enough!
