The Monster

Every once in awhile, we pause from sports coverage to comment on what's going on in the real world. Today is one of those days.

We all knew Donald Trump was dishonest, racist, and ignorant.

We knew he didn't like women—especially strong women—and that he cheated on his wives. We knew he was anti-science. We knew he put children in cages. We knew he was a bully.

But we didn't know he was a monster.

Trump's betrayal of our Kurdish allies is one of the most sickening, inhumane acts ever perpetrated by a government leader.

Innocent Kurdish civilians are being slaughtered because of Trump's love affair with the Turkish dictator. Because he has a hotel in Istanbul.

After a phone call from the corrupt, murderous Erdogan, Trump withdrew American troops from Syria and basically green-lighted and helped coordinate the Turkish invasion. Two days later, the slaughter began.

One wonders if any American ally will ever trust our country again.

It’s hard to fathom how anyone can still support this obviously demented, amoral madman.

But one thing is pretty clear now.

Impeachment is too good for Donald Trump.
