Editor,

I have a low opinion of Democrats, and though I now have some differences with The Donald, my opinion of Mullin is even lower now that I’ve read his letter. The writing is from the mind of a fifth grader.
Mullin really should blame Republicans for their policy on immigration, voter ID and health care, not Trump. What Trump can be blamed for is errors in foreign policy, and I’m breaking from Trump on his decisions on Ukraine, Iran and Greenland.
The war in Ukraine would be over had not Europe insisted on Russia returning land to Ukraine. Trump should have returned to the table and kept pressure on Ukraine to sign a peace deal. What did he do? He captured Nicolas Maduro in Venezuela. That would have been fine had he returned attention back to Ukraine but he didn’t do that. He is now focusing on Iran and a senseless military campaign, in spite of the Monroe Doctrine that he reinstated. Trump wants regime change in Iran, Cuba, Nicaragua, Colombia and, perhaps, Mexico.
Only Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez from the Democrats is raising any fuss about Trump’s foreign policy. If she had written a letter it would have been college-level writing and correctly about Trump’s foreign policy, without ever mentioning that Trump is narcissistic.
