I vote for ‘none of the above’

I hope all your readers got a chance to see the editorial cartoon in the Oct. 17 Fresno Bee. The cartoon is entitled “WikiLeaks,” and it shows Vladimir Putin under the Hillary Clinton boat drilling holes. This is an excellent example of the liberal press trying to unfairly influence the election.

I find it amusing that the press is trying to take damaging WikiLeaks information on Clinton, tie it to the Russians (we have no proof of that). Please remember the spin that Benghazi was caused by a video; then tie it to Putin’s supposed fear of a Clinton presidency, then tie that all neatly around Trump’s neck. It’s as if it’s Trumps fault that Hillary got caught. Really?

A similar analogy would be the burglar who sued the homeowner because he got hurt while in their home. Folks, it’s her emails and her bad! Keep your eyes on the ball.

Having said that, I’m not supporting either of these losers. I urge everyone to vote “none of the above.” I wish we could do that. Since we can’t my slogan is “Dump Trump, Impeach Hillary.” That way neither of them is in office.

John Waayers, Fresno
