Hal,

Enough of Trump. We know he is an AH. You know that I'm a right winger die-hard, but I know Trump is crazy. Talk about Biden and his nonsense. Seriously, does anyone believe that this guy does not know anything about his son's business? I find it fascinating, that senior claims that he knows nothing of his son's activities, but loves him so much. What father loves his son so much and doesn't engage him about his life and livelihood? I am sure that all of your readers certainly are inquisitive when it comes to their children even though they're not children anymore. I know if my dad, mom grandfather, and uncle saw me flying in private jets and buying luxury cars, and living the high life they would ask me how I was making the money to support all of that cool stuff. Seriously, this guy is as crazy as Trump. The difference is that Trump actually knows what planet he is on.

I'm not a lawyer so cannot pass judgement on the indictments or the ex-President's actions except to say they were inappropriate, unnecessary, and self-defeating. There is no excuse for the behavior of the far right groups that participated in the January 6 riot - OR for those who instigated it and gave support to it. As far as Maro Lago and Georgia are concerned both seem to be self-inflicted errors by Trump .. and to me, the NY case is old and inconclusive. It should not have been brought through our legal system.

I am a No-Labels fan and will work to defeat Biden and Trump if they are the nominees in 2024.

You are right that in the aftermath of the 2020 election, loyal Republicans adhered to the constitution and MAGA Republicans to Trump. At stake now is not just the “stultified” GOP, but our American experiment in representative government. It is necessary to shrink the MAGA wing. But if the traditional —pro-business, individual responsibility, strong foreign policy— Republicans go to a third party in 2024, they risk handing the election to the MAGAs. There will be no turning back. For 2024, moderate Republicans must become emergency Democrats.
