Subject: Re: David F*ing Brooks, Of All People
Conservative republican columnist and journalist David F*ing Brooks is sounding the alarm and calling for a united, coordinated uprising against Mad King Donald and his administration.
About damn time.
All law-abiding and constitution-loving Americans need to work together to prevent the complete loss of our country to an authoritarian. Those of us who have opposed Trump from the beginning will need to swallow our anger and work with those who are just converting away from Trumpism to stop him before he becomes unstoppable.
We're going to have to look beyond the errors that many have made in the past in their support of Trump and embrace their conversion and seeing the light. That's not to say that there won't be a price to pay for those past errors, but this is not the time to deal with that issue. The house is on fire and we all have to work together to put it out. For now, it doesn't matter than some of those working to put out the fire helped start it. If they're helping to put it out, they are our friends and not the enemy.
I have my problems with Brooks, but he is finally on the right side of history. He's got the right idea and I'll support him in this quest.
