Daines – do what’s right

February 19, 2021 by Editor

An open letter to Senator Steve Daines: I believe in your heart of hearts that you know that Donald Trump gravely violated his presidential oath of office. This resulted in devastating pain, suffering, loss and death. I urge you to vote for conviction. To not do so shows complicity to this harmful high crime and misdemeanor.

In grade school I learned of the checks and balances of the three branches of government. I had a trust in this structure – that surely the United States and its people would thus be protected from violent and harmful action that could be perpetrated by the executive branch. To not convict also sends a message to all who breached the Capitol on January 6th, and to those who threatened the lives of many and injured and killed people –  that what they did is OK as their leader, Donald Trump, is innocent and did nothing wrong when he stoked violence and did nothing to stop it.

    Sue, where were you and all your Democrat life savers for the past 8 months? The pain suffering and loss to SEVERAL Cities in our country went silent in all Democrat ruled towns. Defund the Police? Go cry on Bullocks doorstep.
