Letter to the editor: Republicans' revenge impeachment

I doubt that anyone is surprised that Republican U.S. House members have voted unanimously to continue and deepen the revenge impeachment proceedings against President Joe Biden. Biden’s self-appointed mortal enemy, Donald Trump, is surely delighted.

The House GOP is a bunch, after all, which cast their votes in unison for one of the most hypocritical, dangerous, election-denying religious frauds in history, Mike Johnson. The fact that Johnson would be placed in a position in which he is second in line to the presidency is chilling, causing me to even more fervently pray for the good health and longevity of Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.

The Republicans seem to have no plan to aid the American people. They embroil themselves in culture wars and now, fulfilling the wishes of the base, to “get” the president at all costs.

The quote I heard from a commentator says it best: “The Republicans have made a compelling case for the impeachment of Hunter Biden.” They have provided a frightening preview of what we could expect from them if, God forbid, Donald Trump should return to the White House despite the 91 criminal charges against him.
