Say what you want Kat, and I cannot speak for Scott, but I am not in love with Trump. I do, however, admire and support many, but not all, of his policies. Let's see, you believe that some ardent Democrats and now even the Catholic bishops and the Pope are credible in terms of geopolitics? These are the same grifters who through fraudulent practices, kickbacks, and Catholic Charities bilked our government to supposedly support illegal immigration? Kat, as a sudden convert embracing Catholics, you have always shown adherence to group thinking when convenient and you confirmed that again today. The Pope should stay in his wheelhouse along with his sycophant bishops. Like most of us, I lament the death of our servicemen and woman but to focus on those most recent fallen, you totally ignored the irresponsible deaths that Biden caused by pulling out of Afghanistan and funding the monstrous regime in Iran. So, we finally have a President who is out to clean up the mess caused by his predecessors. And you criticize him? It is like blaming the cleaning lady for straightening out your house after a raucous party that you threw.
Thanks for your letter, Ms. Berger, and your rehashing of ineffective Democrat talking points. It’s interesting you worry about the lives of six soldiers yet you completely ignore the soldiers who have lost their lives due to Iranian treachery (https://www.whitehouse.gov/articles/2026/03/the-iranian-regimes-decades-of-terrorism-against-american-citizens/). And let’s not forget the 50,000 Iranians killed by their leaders.
You say we’ve heard from many former military personnel who are opposed but how about the multi-millions who are in support? And you’d need to list your “respected” world leaders because my guess is they’re only “respected” by leftists and those with Trump Derangement Syndrome. But then, we have folks supporting Dems who put the welfare of criminals and terrorists over the American people. The bigger question is why anyone blindly follows and votes for Dems who don’t respect law and order. Meanwhile, more power to the USA and Israel for continuing to demolish the terrorist Iranian regime.
Kat: You forget some of Trump’s major faults, like convicted rapist and multi-bankruptcy “businessman”, in addition to all his lying and cheating. How dumb does someone have to be to believe such a low-life failure?
