Ashamed To Be A Republican

 "I want you to use my words against me. If there's a Republican president in 2016 and a vacancy occurs in the last year of the first term, you can say  let's let the next president, whoever it might be, make that nomination, and you could use my words against me and you'd be absolutely right."-Sen, Lindsey Graham in 2016 shortly after the death of Justice Antonin Scalia

      Vile. Vile is how I would describe the majority of the Republican party that is active in Washington at present . Vile is how I would also describe the majority of Republicans at present, period. While I supported the president in 2016 I am the first to admit that the party has become vile from the day Donald J. Trump was elected president. The party has lost their class, their respect, their empathy for others, and their values. Not even an hour had passed since the death of  Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg, and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell announced that he would support Trump's nominee to replace the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg. Also dancing on the grave not even dug for the late Justice RBG were several conservative pundits, FOX News, the president, and Sen. Lindsey Graham who had in 2016 stated that if a vacancy were to transpire during an election year, the nomination for the vacant seat on the supreme court should take place after the next president was elected. 

      Disgusting! The Republican party can only be described as such. When the party and all those who echo the party's leaders fail to respect the passing of a national icon and hero to many by waiting to discuss her vacancy, the party has lost their way. The party has lost their way in that they've lost just having basic human decency. A woman has just died. Not only has a woman died, but a great woman has died. A national icon has died. While the late Justice Ruth Ginsberg may not have shared the same views as conservatives , she was a human being . She was a human being that was loved, respected, and admired by millions. She was a  woman that broke across  barriers that were placed in front of her as a woman in her rise to become a justice of the Supreme Court. She was a woman who paved the way for women across the nation.  However not only was she a national icon more importantly, the late Ruth Bader Ginsberg had a family, and that family deserves the right to mourn in peace. 

   Sadly, the family of the late Ruth Bader Ginsberg has been subjected to many Republicans in office not respecting their time of loss, and for that I am sickened and ashamed. I am ashamed to be a Republican as I have no respect for those that have no compassion for the family and friends of the late Justice RBG. While empathy and compassion should have been seen from my party, simple respect would have been a nice consolation. Instead, the reaction from Republicans in Washington was quite the opposite. Republicans in Washington were practically dancing on the woman's grave. The Republican party has fallen from grace. The Republican party of which I was once proud to be a part is no more. This is not the party I joined as an 18 year old. This is not the Republican Party of those that preceded President Donald J. Trump. This is a party of it's own, or shall I say it's the party owned by Donald Trump, and it's a party of which I am ashamed. When a president and his party who claim to believe in God fail to respect the passing of a great American Icon and woman , that party is lost. The family of the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg deserved more. The late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg deserved more. Rest in peace Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg, You will not be forgotten.

Well said Sean! I applaud you in speaking out and recognizing the truth regarding this President. It was just a matter of time when those like yourself realized how detrimental this administration has been in representing our great country. I could go on and on, but you’ve covered it! Ruth Bader Ginsburg was a champion for women’s and minority rights and had overcome a lot of obstacles to make those voices heard and didn’t stop there. She was a strong, gracious woman, and had more courage and integrity than those presently “in charge”. The reality is that those like her are about actually serving the people...not themselves.
