Trump is victim of Democrats’ resistance

I must take issue with your lead article for March 13. The headline reads “Trump’s lack of action leaves key offices vacant.”

But that is not the whole story. When are you going to report the obstructionism carried out by the Senate and House Democrats? The Dems in the Senate have dragged their feet in confirming Trump’s cabinet picks. It took over a month before Jeff Sessions was confirmed as the attorney general.

Other nominations have taken an extraordinary amount of time also. And, the Dems in both the House and Senate have vowed to fight President Trump on every issue. Never have I seen such hatred!

When are you going to report on that?
