Grassley, Ernst failed to stand up to Trump

Leon Lueck

During the past four years, I have been imploring Senators Joni Ernst and Chuck Grassley to muster their courage to oppose the racism, misogyny and xenophobia of Donald Trump. Ernst replied that the voters elected him, thereby absolving her of responsibility. And now we have Trump inciting insurrection because these enablers lacked the courage to say “enough!”
