Responding to the NYT OpEd

The op-ed that's going to cause His Lardship's head to explode.

And I couldn't agree more with this David Rothkopf Twitter thread:


If the president is unfit & amoral then they should be going public en masse & bringing an end to this, demanding action from the Congress, exposing the facts behind the risks, even providing evidence of those risks. Quietly saying "we've got this" is not enough nor is it right.
They swore an oath to the Constitution and to the US, anonymous complaints and assuming responsibilities to undermine the president does not honor either of those promises. It is confessing to a kind of "patriotic coup." This is not how our government of laws should serve us.

UPDATE 9/6:  Mehdi Hasan is even more pointed.
