Letter to the editor: Watching our freedoms erode
First, I am not a Trump supporter. I am a retired serviceman who has fought for our freedom. A freedom that I have been seeing erode every day. I watched with everyone as they tore down our statures and rewrote our history. I watched as the playing of our national anthem was downplayed. I have seen several of our so-called “rights” taken away. I see daily how our own citizens are forced to live in shame while migrants are given high class hotel rooms to trash. I know people who have been trying for years to enter the country legally but are still waiting even though they have a verified source of income.
Our rights of freedom and democracy are being challenged. First, the Colorado Supreme Court removed a candidate from the primary ballot. Whatever happen to being innocent until proven guilty? Now, one person in Maine decides that she alone had the power to take away our right to vote for the candidate of our choice.
I hear the term “MAGA” tossed around like a four-letter word. Look at our great nation today. Our military overseas attacked over 100 times without a major response. Yes, we need to MAGA! Regardless if you are a Democrat or a Republican, we need to turn our country around and Make America Great Again.
