Dear editor;
You say you don’t like what Donald Trump says, but you like his policies. I’ve never liked lying charlatans who are after your money for their gain, and then to give it to billionaires with another huge tax break, while increasing our costs with tariffs and continued price gouging for our groceries and gas.
I’m just wondering which of Trump’s policies appeal to you the most? The separation of babies and young children from their asylum-seeking-parents at the border never to be reunited? Appeal after appeal to keep his convicted self out of prison? Promises to free January 6 rioters on his first day back in the White House? A radical reorientation in which Washington, D.C. takes a backseat to Europe and NATO, and cuts a deal with Vladimir Putin over Ukraine?
Continue to deny the human risk of Climate Change and just throw rolls of paper towels to hurricane survivors, or sweep the ground to prevent forest fires? Deport masses of immigrants who are not murderers or rapists, but are picking our crops and preparing our meals at restaurants? Allow his son-in-law Jared Kushner who was in charge of a peace plan for the Middle East instead realize the potential of waterfront property in Gaza while cleaning up the Palestinians who live there?
Promote restrictions on abortion regardless of injury to the mother’s health often leading to her death from sepsis, inability to conceive again, or carrying a dying baby to term to watch it die minutes after birth?
More policies to come with Project 2025….
