General Discussion

If Only! But would it matter? Even if she's thrown under the bus, as Trump is always wont to do, he'd just pick another "brown nose" to replace her. Therefore, new face, no change.

What I'd like to suggest, is that we go after the Enablers; the people who are in positions to make it possible for Trump to get away with the destruction of our democracy.

Start, perhaps, with Speaker Mike Johnson, but don't stop there. Call him/them out for enabling, in my opinion, the insanity he is perpetrating.

An Open Letter to the Trump Enabler, Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson

Feb, 2026
An Open Letter To The Speaker of the US House of Representatives
Dear Speaker Johnson,
I am writing to you as someone who is deeply troubled by the way you use your expressed religious faith to handle your job. You have often told the American people that if we want to know what you believe, we should just "read the Bible." But as I watch how you lead the House of Representatives today, I see a massive gap between the teachings of the Bible and the way you act as the primary enabler for Donald Trump.
It is one thing for a President to do wrong; it is another thing entirely for a man who claims to follow the teachings of the Bible, to be the person who makes that wrongdoing possible. You aren't just a bystander; you are the enabler, the one holding the door open for him. You use your position to make sure the President never has to answer for his actions, and you use your claimed faith as a shield to protect him from the truth. Without your help, his worst impulses would be stopped, but instead, you act as the bridge that allows them to become possible.
I am asking you to be honest about how you enable these behaviors:
1. You Make the Lies Possible. You often play "ignorant" when the President says things that aren't true or treats people with cruelty. When he calls his political rivals "vermin," or when he spreads conspiracy theories, you tell reporters you "haven't seen the news" or "don't know the details." But we all know that as Speaker, you see everything. By pretending not to know, you are enabling his lies to spread without any push back. The Bible teaches that "the truth will set you free," but you seem to be working very hard to keep the truth from coming out.
2. You Give a "Spiritual Pass" to Vices and Lawbreaking. You claim to stand for "family values," yet you are the main defender of a man who has spent his life doing the opposite. You stood outside a courthouse to defend him during his trial for paying off an adult film star—a case that involved cheating, lying, and faking business records. You stayed silent when he demanded millions of dollars from the Justice Department to pay for his own legal troubles. In plain language, you are acting like a "character witness" for someone who has shown he has no character at all. By doing this, you are telling the country that it’s okay to lie and cheat as long as you have power.
3. You Use God as an Excuse for Power. You often say that "God is the one who raises up leaders." But it seems like you only believe this when it’s someone you want to have this power. In 2020, you were one of the main lawyers trying to throw out the legal votes of millions of Americans to keep Donald Trump in office after he lost. It is hard to believe you care about "God’s will" when you were willing to ignore the will of the people to help his attempt to illegally stay in office. You are the enabler who tried to give him a second term that he didn't win, and you used the Bible to justify it.
4. You Enable Vengeance Instead of Mercy. While God tells us to "love our enemies," you are helping the President carry out what looks like a "revenge tour." You are helping pass budgets that hurt the poor, while supporting the President’s threats to use the government to "punish" anyone who disagrees with him. You aren't just watching him do this; you are the one passing the laws that give him the power to do it.
Mr. Speaker, if you were truly a man of honesty, a man of truth, a man of decency—a man of God, as you claim—you would not be Trump's Enabler. And, if I may paraphrase what Joseph Welch said to Joseph McCarthy during the McCarthy hearings—"Mr. Speaker, have you no shame?”
Mr. Speaker, stop pretending, stop lying, stop enabling, or, Mr. Speaker, I simply can’t imagine how God could possibly have any mercy on your Soul.
Sincerely,
A (very saddened)-American-Citizen

I hope some (many) of you will agree & re-post this as broadly as possible; & write your own open letters to Speaker Johnson and all the other Enablers that are helping to destroy our country.

Truely- A Very Sad Citizen
