Editor,
Just reading a letter in Thursday’s Daily Journal, a letter writer in Belmont is asking what exactly has Donald Trump done to deserve the wrath of this country?
He says that Trump closed the border, brought inflation under control, established enterprise zones in several inner cities, eliminated hundreds of regulations, made our nation energy independent, reduced our taxation, establish dialogue with Chinese, Russian and North Korean leaders and made NATO members pay their agreed share. All of those claims are false.
The only people he reduced taxes for were his wealthy friends. He did not close the border and he did not bring inflation under control. The only superfluous regulations he did away with were ones that protected our air, water and endangered species. And I sure would like to know more about the dialogue he established with the Russian president. We all would. And the final claim that he commanded respect in the world is the biggest falsehood of all. Our allies detested him.
They wouldn’t sit at the same table with him. Hell, neither would I.
The only time I ever heard my mother use foul language was when she talked about Trump. That takes a lot. The right wing lives on another planet.

Steve - I am the one who wrote that letter. Sorry, buddy, but you don't know what you are talking about. Please do your homework before you come up with your unsubstantiated retorts that have been spoon fed by the the Democrats. You remind me of a little boy who stole from the candy jar and then denied it.
Watching anything but the FOX Lie Channel, Dirk? No? That figures.
Jorg is back with his “wishful, emotional, fake and false statements”. Oddly enough, Jorg did not provide even one example of a lie that came from Fox News which is really weird. But now that you brought it up, please inform us all about the lies that come from Fox News. You don’t have to name them all, maybe just five. And if you don’t provide a reply and you do your typical ghost act, it means you are lying.
Mr. van Ulden - Thank you!!
So I guess our great President Trump Making America Great Again once before isn’t good enough for you, Mr. Ortiz, and instead you prefer treasonous Biden/Dems and their America Last policies? Since you have issues with, and interpreting facts, I get the feeling that it’s more likely your mother was using profanity in a complimentary way towards Trump, implying he was better than good. I think it’s called semantic elevation. It’s a thing. Instead of focusing on what you want to hear, focus on reality and what’s happening around you. Please take your emotions out of the equation and do what’s right for America. Vote for Trump to Make America Great Once Again.
