This post originally appeared at Truthdig. Republican New Yorkers signed up for Trump's plans of repealing the First and Eighth Amendments -- rights that shape American beliefs Let us remember what they voted for:

Massive US invasion of Syria"A little over a month ago, Trump said that defeating Daesh might require “20,000 to 30,000” US troops. He said, “We don’t fight like we used to fight . . . We used to fight to win. Now we fight for no reason whatsoever. We don’t even know what we’re doing.”"Well, someone doesn’t know what he is doing. Shame on the Republicans of New York. Shame."

(There are hardly any Republicans in New York City, so it can be spared the shame).
