Gardner. This is what your party represents in 2017. This is who you are. Just embrace your political identity, and then repent your sins against liberty and equality. Coming out against racism won't erase your implicit endorsement of the nuclear fascistic military-industrial complex deep state malaise. We watched you in Asia promoting the sale of US weapons to illiberal anti-democratic authoritarian regimes, and, friend, your lip service against one here does nothing to erase your actual engagement with them abroad. You must really underestimate your constituents and the state of Colorado more generally to think your political grandstanding here reads as anything more than cynically farcical.
