If during the pandemic, TFG secretly sent Putin Covid test machines while the US was experiencing a dire shortage of the machines and Americans were dying from the disease by the scores, what else might he turn over to Putin and/or others should he again occupy the White House? Who exactly would he be looking out for? My guess is — not you and me.

The leaders of the Reagan Revolution were vile and contemptible. To hold them up as paragons of virtue and patriotism is foul. Sick. I refuse to be ghostlit. Ollie North selling crack to inner City kids so that he could then give prohibited (by an Act of Congress no less) arms to an avowed enemy? Here's a clue - that isn't "patriotism", Bud. You dint get it make up your own meanings for words.

Stop the gaslighting. "Dignity"? Spare me. They were hypocritical monsters who pretty much ruined this country and you recommend them as moral heroes. NO. This isn't Bizzaro World.

Great article but how do you get MAGA Republicans or any Republicans to read it? I’m 80 and have terminal cancer. I have been talking with a neighbor who is a retired nurse to take my 15 year old small dog and during our conversations she would come with the craziest statements like Gov. Cooper other leaders are pocketing much of the disaster relief money rather than rescuing people in remote mountain villages. What? I can only ignore her because being the devout Conservative Christian she is, she would never hear me. I ‘m so sad about what Trump has done to the GOP. A party that I seldom agreed with but did respect.

Bravo, bravo, bravo. I listened to a program on SIRIUS/XM Channel this afternoon as a caller said his father-in-law from Asheville was refusing all FEMA help because of the lies Trump and his supporters were pushing on social media. As for Marjorie Taylor Greene, the carpet mill workers in her northwest Georgia district don’t have much education

Calling people dumb. How "Mark" of you, considering you thought Joe was competent until the very day MSNBC and The View hags told you he wasn't. You seem to have some intelligence issues of your own.

Ruth Martin, as Thomas writes, Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene has been posting on X the Federal Government is "creating" these hurricanes and sending them to majority Republican areas. Rep Greene was censured in the last Congress has done other objectionable things, one of which occurred during President Biden's last State of the Union address. Any person who believes what she is saying should fact check her information, because she is not an authority on any subject.

Excellent piece! I only wish you weren’t preaching to the choir!

Jessica Holmes fired her campaign manager. Do we have a "What, Why, How"? on this?

“… recover some sense of dignity and better understand the definition of patriotism.”

I’d add “and the definition of Republicanism.”

And, add to your last paragraph that if, like Mitt Romney, you are a supposedly anti-Trump Republican leader with the stature to influence voters and you refuse to endorse Harris you’re putting party above country and are not a true patriot.

I have said since 2015 that I now know what it was like to live in 1930s Germany. Watching Hitler rise to power and spread his cancer that eventually destroyed the nation.

We have a similar situation with Donald J Trump. This is a person that should have never been considered as a candidate for The Presidency. Trump is not only unqualified, and unfit for the Office. He is dangerous!

Trump will destroy the United States just as completely as Hitler destroyed Germany.

Remember that old sentence we used when we were young, back in the 1950s and 60s?

We used to type on a Typewriter, “Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country!”

NOW is the time for ALL good people Women and men, to come to the aid of this country and DEFEAT Trump and the evil he represents!

Thank you,

John Kibler
