I swore to myself I wasnt going to write another letter to The Forum, because, whats the use? Its not going to change anybodys mind. But, no use waiting until Jan. 2 to break my resolution.

Some North Dakota Democrat has to speak up about President Trumps impeachment, so why not me?

Im a former state Democratic chair not claiming to speak for the party any longer.

But somebody has to answer the constant drumbeat of propaganda coming from Sens. Hoeven and Cramer, Rep. Armstrong and Gov. Burgum about Trumps impeachment, because otherwise voters will believe it.

First, Trump has been impeached by the U.S. House of Representatives pursuant to the Constitution and precedent applied to the impeachment of only two other presidents in our history.

Second, Republicans in the Senate led by Mitch McConnell and supported by Hoeven and Cramer, are plainly violating their oath to protect and defend the Constitution, and will do so again when they take the oath to essentially be impartial jurors in Trumps Senate trial because they have already declared Trump innocent.

And, finally, they are doing so despite substantial evidence Trump doesnt really care about the security of the country, standing up to our adversaries or supporting our allies if it doesnt benefit him and his family.
