History will judge

Wed., Dec. 13, 2017

I think most Americans have come to understand that history will judge President Trump harshly for his recklessness, bigotry and authoritarianism. I believe that history will judge our representative to Congress, Cathy McMorris Rodgers, harshly as well for her stubborn, politically selfish support of this exceedingly dangerous man. And I believe that history, if only our local history, will judge The Spokesman-Review harshly should you once again choose to endorse CMR in the next election. In case you care.
