Letter: It is Rep. Stewart who should resign

Rep. Chris Stewart,

Seriously, you are calling for Rep. Adam Schiff to resign his committee chairmanship? You are calling for our political leaders to apologize for putting this country in a political crisis?!?

Maybe you should start with President Trump issuing an apology to this country for running a campaign that took meetings with the Russians! If President Obama had done that (or, God forbid, Hillary Clinton) you would have been calling for public hangings. What is wrong with you that you are so blinded by partisan politics?

The Mueller report (from what we hear) could not find enough evidence to charge Trump with collusion. Fair enough, the president isn’t charged with a crime. But let’s look at what his campaign did, the campaign he was ultimately responsible for leading. Look at those individuals involved in his campaign and their actions.

Don Jr. takes a meeting with a foreign foe who promises “dirt” on Trump’s political opponent. Does that not cause you concern? Russia? The Mueller investigation produced criminal charges against 34 individuals, seven guilty pleas (one conviction at trial) and showed that the Trump campaign was at best unethical and unpatriotic.

I call on you to resign, as you clearly are not objective enough to protect our constitution. Rep. Stewart, you do understand that the Russians interfered in our 2016 election with the intent to elect Donald Trump as president? If you don’t accept that after all the evidence that has been presented, then you should resign.

When history records this sad chapter of American politics you will be a footnote as one of the individuals who betrayed our country’s ideals. Shame on you.

Ryan Hinkins, Salt Lake City
