By James Turnage, author of “A Brother’s Revenge”

For the last four plus years the press held Trump to the lowest possible standard in history. Not one of the 44 previous presidents were given a “free pass” as often as Trump. It is obvious that they will allow him to lie about anything. This sexual deviate is allowed to remain untouched by the written word. If he was black and his last name was ‘Cosby,’ every sexual assault and act of adultery would be front page news every day.

A few days ago, on 9/11, Trump lied again about being at the World Trade Center after the towers fell. He was nowhere near them, and this has been proven time and time again. However, the press allowed him to tell this lie once more.

When Trump altered a weather map with a sharpie, and denied the fact, the press said nothing. The once respected “fourth estate” does not exist in the 21^st century.

Trump lies because no one has the courage to stand up to him. Today, I am ashamed of my country, but I will expose Trump when he lies every time. He keeps me very busy.

Here’s another fact you will never read or hear from the press.

Our government is not only dysfunctional, it’s useless. As long as Moscow Mitch McConnell is in control of the Senate, nothing will ever be accomplished for the American people. He has refused to allow a vote on nearly 220 bills passed in the House since January of this year. This is treason against the American people. He’s getting paid to protect Trump and his failed party.

Trump is a disgrace to humanity, but his party is to blame for allowing him to commit crimes against America. He could be removed from office in several ways; they have the tools. If they won’t remove him, let’s remove them all.

In the last two-and-one-half years Republicans have confirmed their beliefs in racism, sexism, homophobia, and xenophobia. They continue to escalate their wars on the working class and women. Most importantly is the fact that they support Trump without questioning any of his lies and mistakes and that includes the fact that your illegitimate president is the leader of the white nationalism movement in America. Republicans are the enemies of the American people.

Please vote on November 3, 2020; thank you.
