Trump is rapidly gaining control of the very investigative agencies who can bring out the truth.
David Brewster Good column by E.J. Dionne on how both parties need to face up to Trump’s unfitness to be president, and soon. One reason for quick action, not mentioned in the column, is that Trump is rapidly gaining control of the very investigative agencies who can bring out the truth. “The Michael Flynn fiasco was the entirely predictable product of the indiscipline, deceit, incompetence and moral indifference that characterize Donald Trump’s approach to leadership.Even worse, Trump’s loyalties are now in doubt. Questions about his relationship with Vladimir Putin and Russia will not go away, even if congressional Republicans try to slow-walk a transparent investigation into what ties Trump has with Putin’s Russia — and who on his campaign did what, and when, with Russian intelligence officials and diplomats.”
On the subject of “unite against Trump”, it might be worth recalling the words of Counterpunch, which styles itself as “the fearless voice of the American Left”. Shortly after the election in November, a lead article at that website celebrated Mr. Trump’s victory as follows:
“The good news is that Hillary Clinton
won?t be starting World War III. Also, at least for now and probably
forever, we are rid of the two most noxious political families in recent
American history, the Bushes and the Clintons.
For this, thank Donald Trump. Remember him on Thanksgiving Day.”
