At what point are you finally going to do your job and hold Donald Trump accountable? He’s not just a “former president.” He’s a twice-impeached authoritarian who attempted to overturn an election, incited a violent attack on the U.S. Capitol, and now apparently has the power to erase historical records from public institutions like the Smithsonian because they hurt his fragile ego. That’s not leadership. That’s dictatorship. And your silence is betrayal. Let’s stop pretending this is business as usual. Donald Trump is a traitor to this country. He stood against the Constitution, encouraged political violence, and has made it crystal clear that he will burn every institution to the ground if it benefits him. And yet the GOP follows him like he’s a messiah—blind, cowardly, and proudly ignorant. Your party has lost the plot, and the rest of us are sick of watching you play dumb while democracy bleeds out. If reports are true that Trump or his allies pressured the Smithsonian to remove references to his impeachments, that’s not just petty—it’s authoritarian censorship. It’s government-sanctioned historical revisionism, and it reeks of the same fascism we’ve spent generations warning others about. That you’re letting it happen makes you complicit. To the staffers reading this: You’re not off the hook. You see what’s happening, and you’re helping it happen. If you’re still drafting talking points, answering phones, or scheduling press appearances for someone too gutless to defend democracy, then you’re not serving the people—you’re serving a cult. If you have any spine, any moral compass, resign now. Otherwise, own what you are: an enabler of a traitor, helping cover his tracks and poison the institutions you claim to work for. What does Donald Trump have to do before you finally draw a line? Shred the Constitution on live TV? Execute political enemies? Dismantle the Smithsonian brick by brick? Your refusal to act is cowardice—nothing more. Do your damn job. Defend democracy. Or step aside for someone who will. Enough.
