Every elected Democrat should be calling for Donald Trump to drop out of the race. Including you, Mr President. Trump was convicted by a jury of his peers for paying off a porn star to hide an affair that could damage his campaign and he conspired with the leading tabloid in the country to kill negative stories that could hurt his presidential bid. Americans should be outraged and it’s Democrats’ job to make sure they are.
If every Democrat from city hall to the White House stood up and called on Donald Trump to drop out of the race we would be probably arguing over whether a convicted felon is fit to serve, not whether the conviction was political. In other words, Democrats would be controlling the debate. That’s smart politics.
Republicans have a unified national response that is being covered in every media outlet in the United States and being parroted ad nauseam throughout the right-wing media ecosystem. In contrast, Democratic strategists are waiting for the polls to come in to determine how to respond and which witty ad to make. They look weak, uncertain, and incompetent. Please do not look weak, uncertain and incompetent.
Donald Trump needs to drop out of the race!
