The Republican Party Found Their Man

Yesterday, August 22, a recording was released of Donald Trump's sister, former federal judge Maryanne Trump, saying this:

“All he wants to do is appeal to his base,” Barry said in a conversation secretly recorded by her niece, Mary L. Trump. “He has no principles. None. None. And his base, I mean my God, if you were a religious person, you want to help people. Not do this.”

Barry, 83, was aghast at how her 74-year-old brother operated as president. “His goddamned tweet and lying, oh my God,” she said. “I’m talking too freely, but you know. The change of stories. The lack of preparation. The lying. Holy shit.”

Today the Republican Party, in advance of its 2020 nominating convention, released a platform of sorts.  But it's not a platform in the traditional sense, in that it contains no policy proposals.  Basically, the GOP 'platform' for the next 4 years, verbatim, is:

RESOLVED, That the Republican Party has and will continue to enthusiastically support the President’s America-first agenda

That's it.  Full stop.  Put another way, the GOP is giving Trump a blank check: whatever he wants, he gets.

For a man whose sister firmly believes "has no principles. None."

The Republican party is an empty vessel, promising America nothing more than to cater to the every whim of an empty, corrupt, racist sexual predator.

Do you really want to vote for that?
