Letter to the editor: Both Democrats, Republicans need to get to work

How many places employ people at full pay that do not do their job? Well, I don’t know the answer myself, but the U.S. government is one of them. Isn’t it time the politicians, Republican and Democrat, get on with running the country and quit running their mouths?

I love President Trump and I don’t really care what you say about me or him. Just quit showing your own ignorance by stating what all Americans want, think, say, etc. Where exactly would you possibly get that information?

You see, birds of a feather usually do flock together; therefore, according to my acquaintances, everyone loves Trump. But that is a small sampling of “all Americans.” So let’s just use our common sense (that is, if you have any) and insist they do their job and let the next election speak for “all Americans.”

As for these mass murders, I suggest the punishment fit the crime. They invoke the death penalty; let the police do the same. No need for gun control and it saves tax money, too.
