Letter to the editor by John Pilecki, Dem Environmental Caucus leader and Indivisible member

Thank you John!

‘Missed opportunity’ misses the point

EDITOR: “Missed opportunity” is the Republican talking point used by, among others, Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Rep. John Rutherford of Florida to describe President Trump’s failure to confront Vladimir Putin with Russia’s meddling in our electoral process. While adequate to describe a missed putt during a round of golf or a missed job interview, those two words fall short when applied to a commander in chief’s abdication of responsibility to defend our nation’s security and democratic traditions.
