A message for Republican politicians
I have no idea whether you support democracy or fascism/autocracy which is the current crisis issue in this country. I realize it would be very frightening to stand up against mobsters who have governmental power ( or even persons who are just mobsters ).
HOWEVER, this is a moment in history that will define you and all citizens of this country forever.
I doubt you signed up to be a fighter, of sorts, helping to defend democracy and the American way of life organized as a democratic republic under a historic document called the US Constitution. ( I assume you did take the oath of office after you were elected.)
So, it would be totally understandable if you chose to step aside, to resign (immediately) rather than stand up and fight. You and your family could hide out in a remote mountain area, or some other country. You could be safe. You would have done something that might help preserve democracy and the American way of life.
Supporting or cooperating with someone who frequently tells vicious, harmful, damaging, and dangerous lies is your other option. Make no mistake about it, telling harmful, damaging, and dangerous lies is a feature of pure unmitigated evil.
