17. How Do You Explain An Orrin Hatch, Hope Hicks, Gen. Kelly And Others....

Fri Feb 2, 2018, 03:36 PM

Feb 2018

Hatch a long time Senator, nearing the end of his career - but really saying that Trump is the Greatest President ever?

Or Hope Hicks - a young girl, with what could be a promising career, with her life ahead of her - saying that she'll take care of those e-mails.

Or General Kelly - a decorated soldier that fought for this country - lying for Trump.

These are just some examples - but go down the list of his cabinet. Go down the list of the Repugs in Congress - that - whether you agree with their stances on issues - worked hard to get elected and stay elected.

Where's their integrity? Don't they have any concern about their good names and reputation?

Why do they want to be associated with a traitorous criminal that might very well go down in history as the worst president ever?

Are we missing something? I hesitate to ask this - but could we all be wrong about Trump? Or have we experienced a coup d'tat in this country?
