To the editor:
Last week, a letter was published putting the Democratic Party in a casket. This is so wrong in so many ways, First, Hillary won by almost three million votes. Are 65 million people deluded? The Electoral College was a devastating compromise for the sake of the slave states, and has now haunted us twice in 20 years.
The reason Trump “won” was because our national election was compromised by the Russians, as Trump urged them to do, because of gerrymandering (look it up), and voter suppression. But the real reason he took the states he did was because of racism and fear of dark skinned people of another faith. He told outrageous lies to achieve this. He is and always will be a con man.
He is now flirting with nuclear war and alienating all who have any common sense. The last president who ignored intelligence briefings cost us 9/11.
This is a mentally unbalanced clown scamming a gullible populace, and we will all sadly pay for it.
But not for long. We are strong and angry, and will fight to keep our country as it should be, and not as a few rich people want it. We will celebrate diversity and human rights and civil rights, and we will prevail. Do not think 65 million voters are dead.
