Donald J. Trump is a patholigical liar. Vote Blue! Vote for truth!

Echo opinion letter published in the Evansville Indiana Courier Press newspaper.


Most Trump supporters I talk to readily acknowledge that Donald J. Trump is a pathological liar.

Why, then, do they they continue to back him? Their most common answer is abortion. They somehow, incredibly, believe that Trump shares their religious beliefs. These wrong minded Trumpzis are fixated on abortion, to the exclusion of other political issues. 

Incedibly, a cousin of mine says she would happily flush our entire nation down the toilet if that would prevent one abortion.

That's not logical. It's not even sane. It frightens and alienates moderate pro-abortion people, who might otherwise be willing to talk and make some compromises. There are some sane, intelligent reasonable people who oppose abortion, but their voices are drowned out by the clamor of the extremist Trumpists, like my cousin.

America can survive having legal abortion, which the Supreme Court has upheld, by working out our differences within the system. But what America can't survive is abandoning truthfulness as a first principle. Our democratic republic and our liberty have no worse enemy than chronic, brazen, in your face lying from the White House. Our founders wrote over and over and over again, that they had created a system of government that required virtue to survive and function.

Truthfulness is the primary virtue. Without protecting and preserving truthfulness, we're goners as a free republic. Please vote for truth, honor and national dignity.
