Dear Editor: President Trump spoke eloquently and sincerely about horrific facts of the Holocaust. He made profound statements, some of which should become integral parts of our humanity and conscience. Although he was discussing Nazi attempts to “extinguish human life,” by murdering six million Jews, Trump’s words apply to all genocide and the abortion of millions of American babies since Roe v. Wade. He emphasized that “we must confront the face of evil,” “never shrink from telling the truth,” and should “emphasize dignity of human life.”

It’s ironic that the Democratic Party now denounces and calls for exclusion of pro-life Democrats (who probably would heed Trump’s admonitions).

But perhaps the time has come for the exodus of pro-life Democrats from the party. The Constitution and the Bible, that were so important to the original Democratic Party, are virtually ignored by the present left-leaning party, that denies the God-given right to life guaranteed by the Constitution.

Since “all that is necessary for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing,” isn’t it time to get the Democratic Party back to basics before it implodes.
