Defending the Indefensible: A Journey Through the GOP's FantasyLand


                                       Good Day World!

America is submerged in the dark era of Trump, where lies live daily, and the truth struggles to see light in an alternate universe of corruption that has become our new normal.

Republicans glibly walk down the path of Trump's fantasy world with reservation. Despite evidence to the contrary (the Ukraine didn't meddle in our presidential elections, Russia did), Trump's minions in the House and the Senate continue to deny that reality...

As for Trump's pathetic defense of his actions get peeled away like an onion in the emerging story, one thing is clear; Trump bribed the Ukrainian president to investigate his political opponent Joe Biden, and to look into a conspiracy theory.

As GOP lawmakers fumble around in Trump's fantasyland it gets harder to defend his outright lies. But they are. Even as his lies are exposed in prime time.

This sheep-like support is threatening our national security. 

Example: Tensions have been mounting between Trump and some the nation's top military officers after he intervened in the cases of three service members accused of war crimes.

There's a moral problem among senor Pentagon officials that are disturbed by Trump's behavior, and bad decisions - as in the betrayal of our ally the Kurds.

Trump has managed to sow divisiveness among the public, and now our military with his capricious actions based upon what he thinks his base wants.

As for those Republican lawmakers that are part of the ongoing impeachment process... it's not too late to come back to reality and serve YOUR constituents - the people who elected you believing you'd be honest and keep your oath of office.

Time for me to walk on down the road...
