Quin Hillyer's Column About Former President Donald Trump Is Seven Years Too Late.

 Mr. Hillyer, a conservative writer for the conservative newspaper the Washington Examiner, in a New Orleans Advocate article dated 1/21/24 titled, "Only one way for GOP opponents to defeat Trump" lists over two dozen reasons why Trump's presidency was a failure.  He uses that failure to write that the only way Trump's GOP opponents can defeat him is to talk about those failures as a past President.

Of course, the GOP as a party and in congress along with the conservative media which Mr. Hillyer is a part of, never talked about Trump's failures while they were taking place or thereafter until now.  The article points out how the GOP under Trump are the record spenders especially in creating debt.  The GOP has always pushed the big lie that the democratic party are the big spenders and the conservative media enabled those lies forever.  This is the first time this writer has heard Mr. Hillyer finally correct the record.

It took Mr. Hillyer seven years to discover the failures of Trump and his presidency, but PolitiDose commentary told the real story from the very beginning about the Trump failure and how democratic administrations govern better for the country and its people.  It was the conservative media who created the fairy tale about Trump with their mis-information, lies, with the idea of dividing the country.  And in another election year it is still the conservative media overall who are still supporting the traitorous actions of the former President.   

The GOP and the conservative media enabled Trump to destroy the republican party by willingly accepting his intimidation and move toward anti-democracy with his attacks on the constitution, our nations institutions and law enforcement.  A complete reversal of what America stands for.  And that really says it all.
