Letter to the editor: Next presidential pick will be easy

Boy, I’m glad the next presidential election is still far away because it’s going to be a very difficult decision for me.

On one hand, we have President Trump: booming economy; 4 million jobs added; record low unemployment, lowest ever for blacks and Hispanics; renegotiation of lopsided, detrimental trade agreements negotiated by wonderful, refined, gentlemanly and “presidential” past presidents; hostages returned without ransom; the end to nuclear weapon and missile testing by North Korea; the rebuilding of Obama’s weakened military; improved health care for veterans; happiness, optimism and love of country.

On the other hand, we have 30 or 40 Democrat clones: abortion on demand; socialism; gun control; opening borders with little effort to protect our citizens from disease and crime; education, health care, housing and welfare for immigrants but denied to many who pay for it; disdain for God, patriotism and Judeo-Christian people of faith; seething anger, pessimism, bitterness and criticism of our country.

Yeah, this is going to be a real difficult decision.
