Congress's Bystander Complicity — Letters that should have been in the new york times

4.9.25

To the editor:

Republican members of Congress are abdicating their constitutional responsibility to represent their constituents interests by functioning as a legitimate branch of the federal government. They are more like bystanders who witness a wrongdoing but choose to turn a blind eye. In so doing, they become accomplices in undoing the world order causing immeasurable pain and suffering at home and across the globe. Donald Trump is an unapologetic bully, albeit with a lot of power, who needs to be dealt with forcefully rather than submissively.

Respectfully,
