(#5550) Another predictable feint from the republicans in the House

      Sadly the republicans in the House are more like the boy who cried wolf than anything else. They go on recess for weeks and then when they come back they say they will address Ukrainian aid. Yet each time they do that they don't address Ukrainian aid. They put it off for some other reason known only to them. Well the rest of us see them and are calling out that they are stalling by lying to us. They have no intention of passing Ukrainian aid while they have the majority because the decrepit trump doesn't want to harm his patron putin. That trump will put his loyalty to putin over his loyalty to democracy is unquestionable. Yet his followers don't see that as a deal breaker.
     So his followers are as well anti democracy if it helps trump. Just think about that for a moment. The pied piper trump is like a cult leader who has hypnotized his followers into going off a cliff with him. He will drive our democracy to the ground if it helps him win power. He, trump, has no allegiance to our nation unless he can get something from it. This is the person who is under constant civil and criminal scrutiny for his blatant business practices, abhorrent personal behavior, and his attempted overthrow of our constitution. It is amazing to me that so many Americans are blinded by his rhetoric nor cannot admit his behavior and actions. They do not correlate the hypocrisy of his acts from his bombastic words.
     To me it isn't a failure of democracy that has brought us to this, it is a failure of decency and respect that has enveloped the minds of stubborn republican voters. If I am having a hard time convincing folks that being an upright decent human being is what we should be striving to become then what is the value of our society when it is neither fair nor equal. I always felt that we the America dream were the best of what the world could become. But it seems now that I was dreaming instead of being awake and seeing who we really are and what that really means. Ukraine will languish without the months ago promised aid and republicans are the ones who will be responsible for their likely defeat because they admire the conman trump more than they fear the loss of democracy.
