Re “Aide Says Trump Shares Kim’s View of Biden” (news article, May 27):

Sometime in the future, the question will be asked about how, in 2019, Republican officeholders responded when the president of the United States affirmed the insult by a North Korean dictator of a distinguished American politician.

The question will be asked how a particular Republican senator, congressman or woman, or governor responded to Donald Trump’s agreement with Kim Jong-un’s denigration of Joe Biden. The answer — silence — will shame the descendants of all those officeholders until the memories of these craven politicians are forgotten.
