“You’re Too Honest” The Quote That Says It All

Republicans, it’s over. Stop backing this man.

I’m not going to be polite about it this morning. As an American citizen and voter, I am fed up. When Vice President Pence was told by President Trump to decertify the legitimate election, and he declined, Trump told him, “you’re too honest”.

There is no ‘too honest’.

There are no degrees of honesty.

Call me naive. I am not. But he asked a man to betray his country, no questions, just do it.

What kind of a man, much less the leader of the free world, can say, ‘you’re too honest’ to a man standing up for what he swore to do?

Republican Party and Trump voters, wake up. This man is evil, weak, and a liar. What can you possibly admire about a scumbag like this? How many major indictments does it take to cut through the wall of bullshit erected by the Republican Party in a desperate attempt to stay in power?

The entire enterprise is beyond pitiful.

It’s over and it has to stop. Now. Wake up. You’ve been conned. It’s hard to admit but it’s time to man up and eat crow (pardon the sexist implication).

This is a disgraceful thing for our country and every one of us as human beings.

Well said! It been embarrassing to admit U.S. citizenship since 2016. Will the dignity of the U.S. ever be restored?

His supporters will never wake up. He’s like the second coming of Jesus to them. They believe his lies and don’t believe the truth. They live in a different “reality.”
