With its support of Trump, Republicans can’t claim to be party of truth and respect
Editor:
One always knows that it is primary/election season in Orleans County when letters to The Hub become the best funny papers around! It’s gonna take a while to clean my morning coffee off my monitor and out of my keyboard after reading this doozy of a knee slapper:
“I thought being a Conservative or Republican meant core values of truth, honesty, respect.”
Really?
In perpetuity history will record that in 2024 America selected a twice impeached, morally bankrupt and already proven failed President as her leader. The very same ungodly man who indignantly lied about losing an election thereby inciting a riot on the U.S. Capitol; inspiring republicans to vandalize, attack police, steal property (loot), urinate and smear feces upon the desks and offices of our democratically elected leaders.
A reprehensible “Coward in Chief” (allegedly with disqualifying bone spurs) who “likes soldiers that don’t get captured” implying he does not like those who have been captured and even subsequently tortured during their service to America as he so publicly scorned John McCain.
An implicitly vain, “p**** grabbing” (his words) confirmed sexual assaulter and defamer of women, a self-admitted stalker and sexual predator of young women, a 34-count convicted felon, a half a billion-dollar tax cheat, a Constitution defiling, democracy busting, porn star poking adulterer and blasphemer. Just for starters.
“Truth”, “honesty”, “respect”?
What a freaking joke.
Oh, and before you start pointing fingers at Democrats (Republicans love to wallow in their “two wrongs make a right” hypocrisy), don’t even waste your time because that dog will never hunt. Republicans had every opportunity to select an ethical, moral, Christian-values candidate during the primary process but instead, you blew it. Donald Trump makes Bill Clinton and Anthony Weiner look like they belong on jars of Gerber’s Baby Food – Special Angel’s Formula.
Well, at the very least, I suppose all Americans can find solace knowing that according to Republican leadership, Donald Trump possesses the ultimate “big d*** energy” (another republican core value?) needed to Make America Gigantic Again. Although … Stormy Daniels might beg to differ. Didn’t she say it was somewhere between page two and three of the Forbes Magazine she spanked him with during a tryst as Melania was giving birth to their son? I think I heard that on Fox so it must be true.
Finally, a while back an earlier writer stated in this forum that “Democrats need to stop hating Donald Trump.” I do not hate Donald Trump. I voted for Donald Trump in 2016. Donald Trump is a deeply flawed and corrupt man deserving of my prayers and my pity.
However, for the multitudes of the naturally born daft, selectively uninformed, counterfeit Christian and the willfully ignorant who fallaciously unleashed Trump for a second time against this great nation … well, Jesus is still working with me on that one.
Matthew 7:16 “You shall know them by their fruits.”
(Yep, it’s even in Trump’s personally signed $1,000 “Gold Edition” bibles. Made in China for less than $3.00 each).
“Truth”, “honesty”, “respect.”
Republicans. Funny, funny stuff.
