Letter to the editor: Democratic insanity
I did not vote for candidate Trump in 2016, but I will vote for President Trump in 2020. I will do it because America needs a strong two-party system.
The Democratic Party has been hijacked by wackos and radicals. The moderate members and “leadership” — Pelosi and Schumer — have lost control. I believe the only chance to restore sanity in the Democratic Party is to send a message in the 2020 election that is so strong it will enable the moderates to regain control.
I will vote for Trump because a president from a party that has veered so far from the center scares me. For three years, many Democrats have called the president and his family members everything but human, continuously made uncorroborated accusations and claimed they had definitive proof of criminal wrongdoing, and stated that Trump would be indicted and sent to prison. Then, when the Mueller report failed to support their claims, they irrationally began to attack the integrity of Attorney General William Barr.
I will vote for Trump because I believe the media is the biggest culprit in this travesty. They have rarely challenged those who make accusations or claim to have evidence of wrongdoing. Rather, they have degenerated into a propaganda arm of the Democratic Party.
Perhaps a strong message in 2020 will wake them up and remind them of the responsibility that comes with the protection defined in the First Amendment: Keep Americans informed with facts, not with lies, hearsay and biased opinions.
