Letters to the Editor

Trump’s a thug, Hillary’s sleazy

In letters to the editor this summer, I have called Donald Trump a Caligulan thug, a potty-mouthed, uncouth, unhinged, arrogant blowhard and a grifter with a narcissistic personality disorder. I haven’t changed my mind. But I must admit there is someone worse than Trump – Hillary! I don’t know yet who I will vote for, but I do know who I won’t vote for – Hillary.

Trump is simply wrong; Hillary, aided and abetted by the slavering Goebbels-like media and its pretense of objectivity, is an evil force, a power-hungry threat to our constitutional republic.

Are you ready for Hillaryland; a vast network of bagmen, fixers, partisan party hacks and lackeys, left-wing celebrity pals, men-hating feminists, and mobbed-up union goons and enforcers that surround the Clintons?

Are you ready for sleazy, seedy, sanctimonious and slick? Hillary’s 2016 campaign message seems to be: “I’m lying, so what!” Or as Hillary once said, “What difference, at this point, does it make?”

Hillary’s recent admission that something in her “short-circuited” may be her only truthful statement in recent memory.
