CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY AUGUST 30, 2022
THERE IS MUCH TO CRITICIZE ABOUT THE WAY THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT, THE FBI AND ATTORNEYS GENERAL IN NEW YORK AND GEORGIA HAVE HANDLED INVESTIGATIONS OF FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP. THE DOUBLE STANDARD IS OBVIOUS, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO PRESIDENT BIDEN AND HIS SON, HUNTER.
BUT MOST OF TRUMP’S PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN BROUGHT ON BY HIMSELF. REGARDING CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS HE TOOK FROM THE WHITE HOUSE, HE, OR HIS LAWYERS, COULD HAVE HAD A CIVIL MEETING WITH PEOPLE FROM THE NATIONAL ARCHIVES AND SORTED OUT WHAT THE LAW ALLOWED HIM TO KEEP AND WHAT HE HAD TO RELINQUISH.
IF HE HAD STUCK TO HIS POLICIES AS PRESIDENT – WHICH WERE WORKING – AND NOT INDULGED IN CHILDISH NAME CALLING AND BULLYING HE MIGHT NOT HAVE MADE SO MANY ENEMIES.
A SOFT ANSWER TURNS AWAY WRATH AS SCRIPTURE REMINDS US.
IT’S LONG PAST TIME TO TURN THE PAGE ON TRUMP. THERE ARE MANY GOOD PEOPLE WHO ARE SUCCEEDING AND SHARE HIS POLICIES, BUT DON’T HAVE HIS BAGGAGE. SOME ARE BELIEVERS WHO ARE ACCOUNTABLE TO GOD FOR THEIR ACTIONS AND CONDUCT THEMSELVES ACCORDINGLY.
I AM OPPOSED TO PROSECUTING FORMER PRESIDENTS, NO MATTER WHO THEY ARE, BECAUSE IT WOULD SET A BAD PRECEDENT AND FURTHER DIVIDE US, IF THAT’S POSSIBLE. TIME TO MOVE ON. I’M CAL THOMAS.
