'former officials'
... it isn't courageous and won't mean anything until CURRENT officials do the same, en masse. They're mostly too scared of losing their cushy positions. Cowards.
Liz Cheney was the 3rd ranking House Republican when she starting warning about Treason Trump.
Fair point -- she had the courage and 100% deserves credit for that! I wish more had her strength.
This is why I feel compelled to defend Republicans and conservatives who do the right thing. In part because there are not enough of them doing the right thing in a clear manner.
It’s gotta start somewhere.
True. I hope it bubbles up to those who have 'more to lose' and they put country over career and party.
