Tribune Editorial: Start standing up for America
(Rick Egan | The Salt Lake Tribune) Mitt Romney answers questions at a town hall meeting in the Provo City Hall Council Chambers, Friday, June 21, 2019.Everything that America stands for is under constant and withering assault by, of all people, its own chief magistrate. And the threat to our society that is posed by his racist taunts, his xenophobic policies, his sexist cracks, his hateful aura, will not go away even when he does.
It falls to every other person who holds or seeks a position of trust under the United States of America to stand against this assault, to do what they can to work around it, ignore it when possible, confront it when necessary.
