Mr. Gulen lives in Saylorsburg, Pennsylvania, about 20 miles from my house. He is a cleric whom Turkish dictator Edogan blames for a coup attempt. Mr. Gulen has denied all knowledge of this.
The U.S. has had a history of providing asylum to political opponents of dictatorial regimes. Until now. Rudy Giuliani pushed Trump to send Gulen back to a sure death, and Trump was receptive to the idea. His aides told him this might hurt him politically as well as being illegal, so he hesitated.
I already knew that Trump was despicable. I didn’t know until the last few weeks that Rudy Giuliani was equally despicable. Mob bosses are more ethical than the creeps now running our government.
