Nicole Galloway must take a
stand on impeachment
It seems the only thing the news media or anyone is talking about is the impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump. Everyone, that is, except Democratic gubernatorial candidate Nicole Galloway. While leaders around the country and the state are asked their views on the impeachment, Ms. Galloway remains silent on the issue.
It makes a lot of sense that she would choose to keep her views to herself. Why risk angering the people of this state who overwhelmingly support the President? She knows that Missouri still stands behind Donald Trump and opposes the political games being played against him. She is hoping that she can skirt under the radar and avoid having to take a stand.
It is one thing for a political candidate to bow out of a public discussion, but the fact that news outlets are complicit in giving Ms. Galloway a pass shows just who the media is rooting for. It is the job of a free press to objectively report the news and inform the people on what their leaders are doing. Media outlets are more than willing to hold Republican candidates’ feet to the fire and make them take a stand on tough issues, but once again the media refuses to apply the same journalistic integrity when it comes to investigating Democrats.
We are tired of sneaky political candidates and a lazy press that enables them. We ask that the press ask tough questions fairly to both political parties or, in the absence of that, for Nicole Galloway to finally stop hiding and to come clean. We the people should be told exactly what she thinks about our President.
