For all of the damage that Trump has inflicted on America, we need to thank the President for one thing. He has stripped away the pretense that the GOP is not a white supremacist, racist organization.
Trump has made it absolutely clear that ANY politician running under the “R” banner is complicit in advancing and supporting a white supremacist, racist organization. That includes Ken Simpler and any otherwise “nice” republican still trying to pretend that GOP of 2018 is he GOP of 1990 or even the GOP of 2010.
Is it fair to single out Ken Simpler in a headline as a racist? I mean Simpler is probably outwardly nice to the minorities he comes in contact with, but this is much bigger than individual relationships. And if I am wrong, all Simpler would have to do to prove me wrong is renounce his affiliation with the white supremacist, racist organization that is the GOP in the age of Trump. One year after the President aligned the GOP with the white supremacist, racist attacks in Charlottesville, it is not too late for Simpler to do the right thing.
