Now the Trumpster Takes a Local Hit

 I'm loving this rather local hit and criticism this Republican Party Trump is taking today. From our Kansas City Star:

Trump attack on presidential debate commission ‘paves the way to violence,’ Danforth says

The Star writes:

Danforth said Trump’s attacks undermine "public confidence in the most basic treasure of democracy, the conduct of fair elections."

Former Missouri Republican Sen. John Danforth pushed back at President Donald Trump Tuesday for charging that the Commission on Presidential Debates is partisan and corrupt, warning that such an accusation “paves the way to violence in the streets.”

“It is not the honor of the commission that is at stake here. What is at stake is Americans’ belief in the fairness of our presidential debates and, in turn, the presidential election,” Danforth wrote in a Washington Post op-ed. “When that faith is undermined, the damage to our country is incalculable.”

It doesn't get much better than this coming, as it does, from a, staunch, well-known and lifelong Republican and the fact that it's in the nationally distributed Washington Post.

Let's do this, folks.

The original Washington Post article:

Trump’s attack on the debate commission is an attack on the election itself
