Hypocrisy regarding the historic second impeachment of President Donald Trump is nothing if not comical.
I laughed out loud at a photo printed Sunday of Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., and the Republican minority leader in the House, as he attempted to look serious while claiming that impeaching Trump again would only serve to divide our country more. I had to wonder why he felt, a couple of days earlier, that disenfranchising over 81 million people wouldn’t also do the same thing.
There is a large group of both Republican and Democrat leaders in the House and Senate who need to go away for the good of our country. We are at a pivotal point in our history and it demands new blood, new ideas and a renewal of American exceptionalism from our leadership.
President John F. Kennedy talked of passing the torch to a new generation in 1961. If that torch is still burning, its time for passing has come again. Here’s to better choices in the years to come.
