Bob Woodward is all about Bob. Sell that book!
ReplyAs political commentator and former Republican presidential advisor Mark McKinnon so aptly put it recently, “The Republican party is at dysfunction junction.” May disagree with conservative ideology and with their stances on many issues, but do value and respect LOYAL opposition–a duty that the GOP has for too long forgotten and abdicated, putting personal and party interests before country. That is not only harmful to their party, it is harmful to our democracy and institutions. And it has come to represent a clear a present danger to our nation, a serious threat to our very security.
All of this is mentioned because it is firmly believed that this is not a time for diplomatic, soft-spoken words. This is not a time to be timid or Pollyannaish about our current political landscape, but a time for frankness, a time for acknowledgment of defects, a time for courageously confronting stark unpleasant realities. Our democracy is a fragile construct, only as sturdy, vibrant, and enduring as we maintain it, requiring constant vigilance and due diligence. Just as we don’t forget Pearl Harbor, or 9/11, even more so the attack against our nation’s Capitol on January 6, 2021 by fascist Reich-wing domestic terrorists incited to insurrection by a deranged President against his own government must never be forgotten or forgiven.
Thus, we MUST condemn both cowardly, corrupt Republican so-called “leaders” defying truth, justice, duty, democracy, and Constitution–and their dysfunctional political party that behaves as a cult–in the strongest possible terms, using the most muscular language that can be mustered. For it is necessary; the very fate of our nation depends upon it. Disaster was narrowly averted with the defeat of Trump, with Democratic control of the House and Senate, but the battle for the soul of this nation is far from over, and we must never again allow ourselves to become complacent. And so it is vitally imperative that we remind each other of this, that we impress these things upon our children and fellow citizens of this nation.
“Call this civic barbarism. Instead of promoting the values of responsible citizenship, Trump, Republican leadership, and their media enablers have elevated and blessed the very worst among us. They are making many Americans less suited for self-government and more dangerous to their neighbors. And they are doing so for the reason some of the Founders most feared: To lead the mob against true democracy.”

ReplyTrump, Powell, Giuliani, and Lindell are all grifters who perpetuated a fraud based upon the Big Lie the election was stolen—-a fraud that fomented and continues to foment Reich-wing sedition and domestic terrorism. If Merrick Garland and his DOJ can’t or won’t bring criminal charges, then this country is in very serious trouble.
