We must reestablish the boundary between right and wrong. It is wrong to lie, it is wrong to express cruel statements after tragedies (as we saw in President Trump‘s post after the death of Rob Reiner); it is wrong to mock the disabled, it is wrong to call people names, it is wrong to abuse one’s power. I appreciate Governor Stein’s moral leadership in NC, but in the republican halls of Congress, you are failing us. I urge you to speak out against Donald Trump‘s reprehensible, rhetoric. We are in danger of normalizing hateful speech and behavior. Moral leadership matters. I urge you to condemn words and behaviors that are simply wrong. In these times, we must strive to remind the world of our better angels. We can and we must be better than what we see coming out of the Trump administration.
