Dear GOP: You'll Never Get The Stink of Trump Off You or Your Party. Never.
- Daily Kos, by Thom Hartmann, Dec. 7, 2023.
Dear Republicans,
After the corruption of the Coolidge and Hoover administrations crashed the world economy, kicking off the Republican Great Depression in 1929, it took your party decades to rid itself of the stink. After Nixon extended the Vietnam War to get himself re-elected, unnecessarily killing over 20,000 American soldiers and a million Vietnamese civilians, and then got busted for Watergate and the bribes he solicited in the White House, it took you almost a generation to rid yourselves of the stink.
But youll never rid yourself of the stink of Donald Trump. At least never in the lifetime of anybody around today.
Trumps stench is a tragic part of American history that will last generations.
The entire world knows the foetor of his whipping up a crowd of thousands to try to assassinate the Vice President of the United States and the Speaker of the House. Trumps minions urinated on the carpets in the hallowed halls of Congress, smeared feces on the walls, damaged priceless paintings from the founding era of our country, and murdered police officers protecting our nations Capitol. That stink will never fade, no matter how often his allies try to rewrite history, blur faces, or tell stories about bizarre deep state conspiracies.
Did you think Americans would forget the stink of the 30,000+ documented lies he told America and the world while he was president? Or the lies he routinely spouts every time he speaks in public, so frequent now that even Fox News has to correct the facts when covering him? How about the reek of his dictator-like pronouncements that he will destroy the American Civil Service and fill our government with corrupt toadies, then imprison his political enemies and send the military into the streets like Maduro has done in Venezuela and tinpot dictators do all across the world?...

Between the internet, Fox, Sinclair and them controlling the radio airwaves we have a steep hill to climb back up to save our democracy and country.
