I’m old enough to remember when the Republican Party told then-President Nixon to resign. There had been no indictment, no court case, no impeachment. But the GOP knew that Nixon had perpetrated a criminal action by authorizing the break-in of Democratic headquarters.
Now, we have a former Republican president indicted in four criminal cases, impeached twice, found guilty in civil cases for rape and defamation. Where is the Republican Party now? Can the GOP truly support a man who labels immigrants vermin; threatens the Joint Chief of Staffs with execution; calls for the termination of all the rules, regulations and articles, even those found in the U.S. Constitution? MAGA hats are threatening Democratic judges and elected officials, and Republicans won’t denounce this violence.
As with anti-vaxxers, too young to remember measles as the killer it was before vaccines, perhaps Republicans today are too young to remember that earlier time when they believed in democracy as the greatest political system in existence. Please wake up and do your duty to our country.
