After Donald Trump brazenly claimed victory on election night the Irish Daily Mirror ran a headline that pithily summed up his character. Sadly the GOP is full of enablers and cowards and his assault on our democracy continues.
It did not have to be like this. Unfortunately, the United States is currently governed by a Confederacy of imbeciles, sociopaths and cowards resulting in the worst response to Covid in the world. And it all starts with the moron in Chief who assumes no responsibility for this disaster Donald Trump.
Faced with a shrinking aging demographic base and unpopular policies, the GOP has decided voter suppression is the way for it to hold on to power.
In March, Donald Trump announced a “peace deal” with the Taliban. More recently he announced he wants to pull out by Christmas. There are no great answers in Afghanistan, but there is a risk these moves are accompanied by the lack of planning that is the hallmark of the Donald Trump presidency.
