Mary Trump - We Can't Unify around Fascism
Like most Americans, I too want the national temperature to be lowered. I want to see the violent rhetoric to stop. And I want to see our nation unified.
But the other side seems to be saying that, in order for that to happen, were not allowed to talk about Donal'ds record of lawlessness, cruelty, and incompetence and we must make concessions to the would-be dictator.
On Monday, while Republicans tried to shame their critics into silence by making false and increasingly incendiary claims that it was Democrats who are responsible for creating the context in which Saturdays shooting took place, we were reminded just how dangerous things will get if Donald wins this election.
Today, Aileen Cannon, Donalds personal pocket judge, took the shocking (but not surprising) and illogical step of dismissing the charges against my uncle. Her behavior since acquiring this case has been abysmal and partisan; she has frequently skated across the line of malpractice. Her repeatedly putting her thumb on the scale in favor of the defense (who am I kidding?she acted like she was lead counsel for the defense) felt even worse, because we know Donald is guilty. We know he stole our national security documents; we know held them in non-secure locations; and we know he refused to return them. We know these things because we witnessed Donald commit the crimesand he confessed to them over and over again.
