Donald Trump and the illegal sedition caucus

Letter to the editor published in the Summit Daily, a Colorado newspaper, submitted by Kari Kronborg:  

Shame on those who continue to support Donald Trump!

Trump continued his false assertions that the election was stolen from him and that there was fraud. Sixty courts and judges have ruled that there was no fraud!

Two (seditionist!) Colorado Republicans voted not to certify the election, and Lauren Boebert continues to state that the election was stolen.

The Republican Party states that they are the party of law and order and family values. But, I say, they are, instead, the party of obstruction and sedition. What happened on Capitol Hill was terrorism; it was not a rally. 

People that participated brought with them guns and pipe bombs. People are still being encouraged to go to D.C. on the Inauguration Day and to come armed.

Trump encouraged this behavior on the day it occurred, and it took him two-plus hours to ask people to stop. Had Trump not incited this riot, had he tweeted for people to stop sooner, maybe the officer would not have been murdered by these terrorists and a maybe the second officer a few days later would not have died by suicide.

Republicans will bring up Black Lives Matter and blame them for the violence that occurred this past summer. 

We know that the Black Lives Matter rallies were remarkably nonviolent. 

When there was violence, police or counter-protesters were very often directing it at the protesters. After years of peaceful marches and attempts to work through the legal process, Blacks are still shut out by Republicans suppressing the vote and shutting out people of color.

Trump continues to falsely state that the election was stolen from him. But, full stop...."He lost", period! 

Moreover, Trump should not be allowed to reap the retirement benefits afforded to past presidents. Shame on all supporters for not saying enough is enough. Trump must be held accountable.
