Conservative journalist Michael Gerson of the Washington Post is no President Trump ditto head like most conservative journalists who see no wrong in President Trump's actions and are ready to support his lies and traitorous acts. In a article that appeared in the New Orleans Advocate dated 10/1 titled Trump Is Guilty But will he pay for it? Mr. Gerson writes in his first sentence as follows: "For the first time in American history, the President has pleaded guilty to an impeachable offense." Mr. Gerson relates that to Trump's telephone conversation with Ukraine's President on July 25 which is the subject of the U.S. House's impeachment inquiry.
Mr. Gerson is no Johnny come lately in his commentary about the President's conduct and like commentary in PolitiDose that began early on also, recognized the dangers that Trump presents for the country. Gerson in his article says Trump's asking Ukraine's President to investigate Biden constitutes corruption of the first order He then said Trump has spent so many years in the trash heap of corruption that he can no longer recognize the stench. Readers of PolitiDose have read about Trump being corrupted to the core long ago. It was also PolitiDose commentary in 2016 that recognized early on Trump's traitorous act when he asked Russia to hack into Hillary Clinton's emails. That was a betrayal of America, but few in the news media took note of how serious Trump's actions were at the time, but PoitiDose was there to report it timely.
So commentary by Mr. Gerson and PolitiDose concerning President Trump's unAmerican actions have a similar tone and understanding just how damaging the trumpet man has been to our country and everything America stands for. And both have commentary about those republicans and conservatives who have enabled Trump and in the process have become ditto heads who look the other way. Republican and conservative journalists who continue to support the President's every day lies and traitorous acts, remain silent and give voice to the most extreme voices out there are not journalists.
But this writer and I feel sure Mr. Gerson will continue to report on what really matters and make a difference for our country and its people.
