Smith: We Will Respect Trump When Trump Respects Us
QR’s Liberal Columnist Glenn W. Smith argues that Trump’s disdain for many Americans is reason enough to undercut his policies
On
the morning of Donald Trump’s
inaugural (shudder), MSNBC’s Chris Matthews tweeted, “I love what @alfranken
said about the role of democratic opposition this AM. It’s to challenge Trump –
not undercut him.”
I
didn’t hear Sen. Al Franken say
that, but I assume he must have. But whatever in the world could Franken and
Matthews mean?
Isn’t
it the righteous work of the Democratic opposition to undercut policies we view
as anti-human and anti-democratic? Isn’t undercutting Trump the most patriotic
service we can provide to our nation?
