My letter to the editor

(Name's) letter of (date) lamented that every single body is not working "in unison with this president for the good of 'We the People,' and not for the good of the party."  This would be funny if it weren't disastrous that no other president has demonstrated less concern for this country and for We the People, only single minded interest in what is good for him.

It used to be said that "it can't happen here," but we are faced with the real possibility of rule by one man, who believes in Mafia power for himself, everything being about personal loyalty to him, and thinking that he owns the government, the military, and us.

I was accosted in a parking lot by a fellow to thank me for my service because I wear my veteran's cap. He was wearing a Trump 2020 red cap and I said, "No Trump for me."  He withdrew his handshake and yelled, "No AMERICA for you!"  I realized how far gone his supporters are that they accept the idea that this country is the same thing as one man.  And they don't know or care that by accepting that idea they are betraying the country.

Great letter, UTUSN. You are absolutely correct: Trump is not America.

looks embarrassed and perplexed. MACRON is spot on; his wife resembles the PELOSI hand-clapping look. Thanks.

That the traitor conservafilth were willing to work with Obama.

Until then, they can piss off.
