Trump haters, take a deep breath

It is comical to read some of the letters from the Trump critics with the disgust and hatred expressed. Especially when you consider their point of reference.

They only need to look over their shoulder to see that they are standing knee deep in the sewage that is the Clinton/Obama legacy. It is no moral high ground and certainly no place from which to sling mud at others.

While they are playing “Swat the Trump” like they are on the pickle ball court, our president is going about the task of revitalizing America. He is there because he is not Clinton.

The election is over and the people who elected Trump had a choice and, just like Trump, couldn’t care less about their hatred. Relax and think about something else! We tolerated Obama for eight years and survived. We have elections every four years, so get a viable candidate. Maybe we will vote for that person, if he or she is a better choice.

By the way, if you want the real Russian collusion story, look up “Uranium One.” Then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, in a convoluted transaction, brokered 20 percent of U.S. uranium reserves to Russia for millions in donations to the Clinton Foundation and a $500,000 speaking fee for Bill.
