They not only are members of the first major political party in America to nominate a convicted criminal to be the party's Presidential nominee, in doing so, they approved the concept of a corrupted President and a corrupted government. The media in Louisiana has spoken about corruption in Louisiana politics many times in the past but never to the level of this magnitude.
Donald Trump is a convicted criminal on 34 felony counts, a sexual abuser, a fraudster, and as a former President, while sitting in the Oval Office attempted to overturn the 2020 Presidential election with his violent mob who stormed the nation's capitol. He is also a serial liar whose rhetoric is toxic and violent.
Trump and his GOP cannot walk the talk concerning Moral values, on law and order, on democratic values or governing, on our veteran's sacrifice, on the constitution, on defending our country and standing with America's allies, on respecting our people. Nor can he walk the talk of honor, duty and country. Yet, this is the person the party nominated for President and intends to support and vote for in the November elections. Their shame has no bounds.
Those Louisiana representatives in congress who support and or vote for Donald Trump, display their lack of respect for the office they hold and a lack of respect to governing the nation. It also represents a future where UNFIT political candidates are the new NORM in our political history. How sad the GOP allowed this to take place. And how sad the media never followed the real story of this pitiful chapter in American politics.
With only two short months left until election day, the media finally needs to speak up to the real issue of Donald Trump and his party's nomination of such an UNFIT candidate and what it means for future nominations for the nation's highest office.
