Once again, America and the world are watching with horror as a Republican candidate for president ā just to win an election ā manipulates world affairs in a way that will cause widespread death and destruction while damaging the interests and reputation of America.
Thereās a long tradition of Republicans running for president committing what can best called treason, or at least criminal manipulation of international affairs, to advantage themselves and hurt incumbent Democratic presidents.
Yesterday, Mitch McConnell
let the proverbial cat out of the bag. A bipartisan group of senators had been working on a bill to provide funding to Ukraine and Israel, with money for the southern border, and when it looked like they were going to produce something that would actually pass the House and Senate, Donald Trump inserted himself, telling the Republicans they should kill the bill.
Trump apparently wants to run on chaos at the border, and solving the problem as this legislation is intended to do would take that issue away from him. But heās also explicitly opposed to any further US aid to Ukraine. This is a treasonous twofer, putting Trumpās election above the interests of the United States and world peace.
