Men of dishonor

Members of the GOP elite who’ve come out against Donald Trump see themselves as above the fray. Men of honor and dignity. Statesmen who are better than the likes of a Donald Trump. But their actions and inactions as political (non)leaders have failed the American people so profoundly, they’ve lost all claim to whatever notions they have of themselves as honorable men.

Is it honorable to lie to the American public (and do so over and over again)? Is it honorable to align with the opponent on matters of grave import? Is it honorable to dish out a steady stream of pathetic excuses as to why they haven’t accomplished anything they promised as if we’re a bunch of idiots just waiting to eat up whatever stupidity is thrown our way?

Is it honorable to put our lives at increased risk? Is it honorable to behave as if the left does not mean to destroy this nation?

Is it honorable to contribute to the decline of America?

No it is not. It is dishonorable. And no amount of polite, gracious, sophisticated words that flow out of the mouths of GOP elites can change that. As Trump said about Hillary in the last debate: “It’s just words, folks. It’s just words.”

A war is going on and it’s not just Islam vs the West (which is bad enough). There’s a war for the heart and soul of America. Name me even one anti-Trump elite who genuinely grasps that terrifying fact and who has an appropriate sense of urgency?

I can’t think of one.

As Mike Huckabee stated on Monday during an interview with Megyn Kelly:

Here’s a little secret Megyn, a lot of these bed-wetting, hand wringing Republicans, they’re not afraid Donald Trump is going to lose. They’re scared to death he’s going to win. And if he wins he is going to mess up the neat little package of fun they have because they all play to the donor class and Donald Trump is coming to make big changes in the way that these institutions go.

To watch the entire 4 minute clip, see here. It’s worth a listen. Huckabee is right on the mark.
