Only division is of nation from those who seek its end

By Sid Schwab / Herald columnist

Though everything President Joe Biden said last week in “The Speech” was true, he could have put it better. “Fascists. They are fascists. Not all of them … but we are getting closer. We have to win this election” (Cox Media: tinyurl.com/2speak4u).

Oops, sorry. That was Trump, speaking of Democrats, two years ago (Twitter: tinyurl.com/hesaiditfirst).

So let’s not feel sorry for MAGA Republicans. They threaten democracy exactly as President Biden described. Their hurt comes from hearing truth from a presidential podium, rather than the lies they’ve lapped for years. What Trump campaigned and “governed” on was purposefully divisive. He’s still at it.

Oh, but Joe said he wouldn’t. Right. Before seeing MAGA Republicans dismantle, brick by brick, the walls protecting voting rights, constitutional rights, public education, elections; while they build one around their lawless leader.
