Should the leadership of the Republican Party withdraw their endorsements of Donald Trump? It has been argued that Trump is rude, crude, without morals, without conscience, utilizes bigoted, misogynistic, and demeaning rhetoric. How can the Republican Party leadership say they disagree with him when he acts out but still endorse him? Others have argued that Trump is a special threat to the American Republic, thus the leadership needs to disavow Trump’s proto-fascist attitude, if they wish to have any moral ground to criticize him and reform the Republican Party. Aren’t people like Paul Ryan just talking from two sides of their mouth? By endorsing Trump are they lacking in moral character, political courage, and every quality and virtue we demand in our leaders?
