Zelenskyy schools Trump and his sycophantic GOP, on how to defend democracy from tyrants.

TAT readers,
Time is precious at the moment but I feel like this very brief piece, is something that must be said out-loud and sooner than later. Trump and Vance ambushed President Zelenskyy in their now infamous White House meeting, this past Friday. Both of them and now, the entire Republican Party, support Putin. Actions are truth, not their words. Putin and his allies, like China, Iran, N. Korea etc. are guilty of the most horrific events of this century. Despotism, genocide, aggression, oppression of their own people, etc., etc., etc. Now, the entire Republican Party has supported Trump’s decision for America to join this heinous club of despots.
Russia’s Foreign Minister has just announced that the Trump administration and Putin’s, are now sharing the same world view. Yes, this is treasonous and far beyond immoral. Throughout the Cold War, the global brand for our nation around the world, was democracy. Now, our brand under Trump and the GOP’s subservience to Putin, is cold, cruel despotism, in service to wealth and power for a few.
With the Republicans now in charge of Congress, their despotism is now officially the US brand, at home and abroad. Zelenskyy’s courageous defense of democracy against the sitting US president and his treasonous, cowardly and sycophantic party, was a moment that I will never forget and always be inspired by. Viva Ukraine and President Zelenskyy.
On a related note, tomorrow, I will be back with Part V, in my “Coup” series. Tomorrow will be my very stark, terse and succinct assessment of what we must do next, and who the targets of our campaign must be. I hope that you will join me for Part V in the series. It comes down to this; we must work together, prioritize our focus and act.
American Democracy will live, so long as those who believe in our founder’s vision, still fight for it. There are more of us, from both major parties and those with independent views, than the Trump, MAGA GOP crowd. It’s time that we show them what real patriots do… just like what President Zelenskyy did last week.
For those interested, I am posting the links to the first Parts of the “Coup” Series.”
Get some rest true patriots, we’re all going to need it, until Trump and every sitting Republican politician from the Trump era, are gone. Democracy doesn’t mean that we all agree on the path forward, but we all must agree on what our values are. Defending our constitutional republic from traitors, is one such non-negotiable value.
Onward,
Paul
