You must be from SC too, where we have to put up with that lousy POS named Lindsey Graham. I am sickened by Trump, Vance, Musk, Graham , Rubio and countless other republicans who obviously have no souls, since they’ve long since sold them to Satan. On the other hand, Mr Pavlovitz has written the most compelling statement that reflects my feelings precisely. I hope and pray that Zelensky knows that The current Washington leadership does NOT represent the feelings of the vast majority of Americans.
Ditto. Senator Graham seems to have a withered soul, a withered spine, a withered short term memory and a withered heart. His brain appears to be reduced to the reptilian parts concerned primarily with survival.
Lindsay Graham is one of the many disgusting hypocrites who have condemned Trump in the past and behind closed doors, but started praising him when he realized that Trump could bring him down. Trump is like a mob boss, and these spineless cowards let him scare them into obeisance.
I remember reading that after McCain 's death that Graham slithered over to Trump because he just had to be close to power. SC politics seem to have a tendency to throw up less than stellar candidates.
Rubio is like Esau, who sold his birthright dor a mess of pottage. So many GOP figures have thrown away whatever shreds of integrity they might have had. I hope the payments they received were worth thr price of their reputations.
Oops….i misread your post. You have a senator who STOOD UP to Trump. So you obviously are not from South Carolina. Lucky you, and apologies for my misread.
OMG, you must have gotten his email about his visit to Bucha too! Because I responded and said - if you SAW this, if you KNOW what's going on there, then HOW are you supporting this administration? WHY are you not voting to impeach? WHY did you vote for his cabinet picks? Walk the damn walk!
Wow!! I was born and raised in Asheville, NC and follow NC pretty closely, but couldn’t figure out which of your senators actually stood up to Trump. I’m excited that maybe there is a flicker of hope for him!
Trump and Vance don't represent our country. They represent Putin and the rest of the dictators, and fascism. As Pavlovitz says, there are many of us who. respect and revere Zelensky and are deeply embarrassed by Trump's disrespectful, deluded, and childish behavior.
Ashamed, yes, but of the ugly face of it and those who voted for it. I'd like to know their thoughts today, whether they support this along with all his other treacheries.
Thank you for writing this. I just went online to find a place to say the same thing to him. I hope Zelensky knows that most of us are not like the dumpster fire and his minions, and support him and Ukraine completely.
If there is a way to convey to President Zelenky, please add my name. I literally shed angry tears when I saw and heard the disgrace from the White House. The shame I feel is deep and real.
I would like to add my name in support of President Zelensky and Ukraine - I still can't believe the humiliation and disrespect by Trump and Vance to Zelensky in that meeting. Sure looked like an ambush to me! Trump looked like a child having a tantrum! Zelensky definitely concerned about not getting guarantees and rightly so since Trump has been on Putin's side for a long time! I hope Zelensky knows how many Americans are with him!
John, thank you for putting into words what so many of us are feeling; shame, embarrassment, and shock for the depraved man who sits in the Oval Office. I have so much respect for President Zelensky; his courage and strength for how he represents his country that was so unfairly attacked by the monster Putin. I hope President Zelensky is aware of how many Americans stand for and respect him.
I have no words for the disdain I feel at this moment for the un-Americans who have usurped OUR WHITE HOUSE. They do not represent MILLIONS of us! Thank you John! I hope that the Honorable President Zelensky reads your letter, you are speaking for ALL OF US! I will share it widely on my BlueSky and LinkedIn feeds.
I just called my reps to ask whose side they are on right now. I am so distressed. This was shameful. And watching the disgusting berating of our (one time) ally while appeasing his tormentor was horrifying. I thought back to the 2017 Oval Office meeting with the fELON and Russians Kislyak and Lavrov, all smiles...and then, this. We must not let this stand.
As usual, John spoke eloquently the words that were scrambled in my heart and brain after today’s shit show in the White House! I so appreciate you John! You help keep me centered and focused on what’s important. Most Americans will find today’s events appalling. I know that my friends in Europe already do as my messenger box has been blowing up!
Another 100! I just wrote my senator who amazingly stood up to Trump in defense of Ukraine. Please let us sign the letter along with you!!

He's just terrified that someone is going to out him as gay. Which anyone with half a brain already knows.

North Carolina, but I get it!!
Yes, we have our own group who have sold their soul
Rubio is like Esau, who sold his birthright dor a mess of pottage. So many GOP figures have thrown away whatever shreds of integrity they might have had. I hope the payments they received were worth thr price of their reputations.
Not just their reputations but also their souls.

Believe me it was a shock when Thomas Tillis spoke up -otherwise he’s been approving disturbing Cabinet nominees etc.

I am so ashamed of this country today. 😔

Thank you!! I hope there is someway for him to see this letter and for 1/2 of the country to sign it with you

As usual you say with eloquence what I know and feel. Thank you for expressing our solidarity with the people of Ukraine

Thank you!!! I completely agree and share your sentiment!!!
Thank you for saying all my thoughts and feelings, John, just saying them in a less angry and more coherent way.
Agreed!!! 😥😡
