Columnist anti-ethics

August 25, 2022 9:09 am • Last Updated: August 25, 2022 9:09 am

I guess we know now where Joe Battenfeld from the Boston Herald stands on ethics. He blasts Elizabeth Cheney for standing against Trump and in so doing lost her re-election to Congress. Joe believes she should have listened to her constituents, gone against common sense, betray what she knows is right and supported Trump.

This is because he believes you do not do what is best for the country. You do whatever it takes to stay in office. I guess she should have followed in Sarah Palin’s footsteps and lowered herself to the lowest possible standard just to keep her job.
