Letter: Complicit Congress is letting America become a laughingstock

(AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin) Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, left, speaks with Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, during the Senate Judiciary Committee confirmation hearing for Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, on Capitol Hill, Tuesday, Sept. 4, 2018, in Washington.

There is a big to-do in the White House about the recent anonymous op-ed in The New York Times alleging insider knowledge of the workings in the Oval Office.

A long time ago an employer I worked for said: “When you work for a man, be loyal and do your best for him. If he treats you badly, you can quit and vilify him at your heart’s content!” In this instance, however, it is not the first time that things have been told about the miserable conditions of working for President Donald Trump. But in spite of all that and more, our Senate and Congress are sitting idly by and letting our America go to pot.

Our spineless Utah representatives are leading the boot-licking of the congressional branch and stand on the sidelines while our proud nation is made the laughingstock of the world!
