‘Go to that cellar’ and re-read your letter

I was impressed with Loran Hugh Parker’s letter (Nov. 13). He got it right. Politicians tell lies; the press backs them up. People were fed up and needed a real change. Now the Hillary Clinton supporters cannot accept the loss and are espousing the same hate of which they accused Donald Trump.

Sylvia Woodburne’s letter (Nov. 13) also spews hate to those who voted for Trump. Maybe she should go to that cellar and re-read her letter. As a recent Mackay’s Moral said, “Control your attitude before it controls you.”

We are the United States of America. Let’s act like it. United we stand, divided we fall.

Janet Harvey, Porterville
