All of us decent people, all the Dem candidates, anyone of sound mind who is repulsed by Donald Trump's racism need to put the question to the Republican sycophants and opportunists who have no problem with what he's saying: do you care what it says about your character and your values when you see nothing wrong with what he's saying, and continue supporting him?
It's just astoundingly sad what people are tolerating right now, what they're enabling and what they're emboldening.
I like to think there are American values that are non-partisan and are bedrock principles and traits that are integral to this country that people can rally around regardless of party, to stand up and defend and shut this chaos down. I like to think those exist, but day by day by day I lose a little faith that they still exist to a degree that they're powerful enough to impact positive change.
it's just painfully sad to watch and know people I'd typically consider to be good people be so tragically silent about the president's racism, and the divisiveness it generates. Thus, asking people if they care what it says about their character and values. They probably won't understand, but it's a shot.
