Letter to the Editor / DO THE RIGHT THING
By Roger C. Kostmayer
Where, you may have asked, are all the Republicans and their party that once was: a pillar of Constitutionalism, proudly internationalist, fiscally responsible, anti Russian & anti corruption, truthful, and believed in conserving American values that united the American people.
Examples of these leaders begin with the first and best Republican president, Honest Abe Lincoln, but there’s also a long distinguished line of diverse Republicans who served their country with honor and integrity, such as Ike, Nelson Rockefeller, Barry Goldwater, George H.W. Bush and John McCain. Sadly, the Grand Old Party (GOP) morphed into the Trump Party, and those American heroes who preceded today’s Congressional Republicans would no longer be welcomed into today’s Trump party by presidential sycophants and enablers.
In the past, Republicans did the right thing and put country first when it became unequivocally clear that a member of their party threatened America’s Constitutional democracy, in the Senator Joe McCarthy and President Richard Nixon cases, and we must hope that they have the courage and patriotism to rise to the occasion if the evidence confirms we face an even greater threat than the prior crises.

I thought we were rid of this sick left wing commie bastard who is trying to undermine our great American dream, but no, it is back and full of the propaganda BS it is infamous for! Please, someone take it fishing!
“but there’s also a long distinguished line of diverse Republicans who served their country with honor and integrity,… George H.W. Bush and John McCain.”
Pres George H.W. lost to Pres Bill Clinton, who left a stain in the office and a bad taste for cigar smokers.
John McCain, with a stellar military record, lost an election to a neophyte Pres Obama…ah I forgot General, Psy-Ops Command, Community Relations, Nobel ribbon.
As these ‘stellar GOP statesman’ lost, I guess Liberals didn’t care about their “honor and integrity” to vote for them!
Don’t fret, Pres Trump will get re-elected in 2020.
