Letter: Who understands Trump’s actions?

Published 8:56 pm Wednesday, April 19, 2017

Have you heard the latest slogan those Trump supporters have come up with? It is there is a new sheriff in town. They forget to tell you his name is Barney Fife.

Does anyone understand his last demonstration? Bombing another country  that has shown no aggression against the U.S. There is no country talking about doing anything to the U.S., but Trump has us preparing for wars against three different countries. How can we afford to do this? We haven’t paid for that Vietnam War yet. That is still on the books. I think Putin is playing his cards smartly by helping putting this buffoon in charge of this country to bankrupt it. That is the only way we can lose our superiority status in the world. Putin is playing Trump like a fine-tuned violin. Either this is the truth, or all Trump is doing is trying to divert the attention off the investigation into all of his ties to Russia. It sounds like there were several people in his administration who had some dealings with Russia. Why won’t he show his tax records like every other politician  who has run for president if he doesn’t have something to hide?   

It is so obvious now about the people who voted for Trump.   Half of them would vote for a pig if you put a sign Republican in front of it. The other 50 percent just voted for him because of all his entertaining ability by saying all those one-liners. The media picked that up because those one-liners were news, and the public enjoyed reading them. If it weren’t for the media, Trump would not have gotten the attention he received.   Then later, Trump blamed the media because he thought they twisted his words around, but all they did was repeat what he had said. It just didn’t sound as good as when it came out of his mouth. Those Trump supporters keep saying we should give Trump a chance. My question then is where were they when the Republicans wouldn’t give Obama a chance?
