Shame on pols supporting Trump’s attempted coup (letter to the editor)

It saddened me and every American that we have suffered from the worst pandemic in the history of our nation. Is this not enough that we lost family members, friends and neighbors to this contagious disease? The economic losses are unbearable.

It is unfortunate that we have a leader who is more worried about how he can manipulate this just and fair election, and turn it into his corner two weeks before the inauguration of a duly-elected president. It is shameful that some of the elected officials are taking part in this coup. What happened to their conscious?

The forefathers worked very hard more than two centuries ago to make sure that our democratic republic will remain forever. What we are witnessing today we could never have imagined would have happened in America. We always send election observers to other countries to monitor their elections, as their elections were never fair.

I will say to those who are destroying our democracy, that if you don’t want to fulfill the oath of your office, then you should resign and let the American Constitution prevail. God Bless our great republic, the United States of America.
