Trump is bonkers, our congressional reps remain silent

By Hugh Espey, Des Moines 1 min read

Celebrated historian Heather Cox Richardson says Donald Trump's demand for Greenland is bizarre. She also called it bonkers. I agree.

Trump has demonstrated bonkers behavior many times in recent years, especially the past twelve months. But Iowa's congressional representatives have remained silent. Crickets.

When will Ashley Hinson, Mariannette Miller-Meeks, Zach Nunn, Randy Feenstra and Senators Grassley and Ernst stand up to Trump and challenge his excesses? This is not a time for cowardice.

I'm looking forward to the mid-term elections this November. Maybe early voting could start next week?

Starting at /week.
