I was all set to write a letter saying “Take that, Democrats” after the election, but alas, the outcome was very shocking and contrary to what I expected.

As a supporter of President Trump, I realize he did it to himself; his big mouth and ego couldn’t be toned down, and people who voted for him in 2016 had enough of his bragging and obviously treating the pandemic as a minor problem. He sabotaged his own reelection with his huge ego and wouldn’t listen to advice.

But I remind all who voted for Joe Biden: “Be careful what you wish for,” because I see him and Kamala Harris as very radical, and I think the outcome will be a big mess, although I hope not. Questionable things happened during the election, but not enough to change the results. I’m sincerely frightened about what is to come with Biden and Harris ruling.

On another subject — the headline “Big Ben on reserve/covid-19 list” in the Nov. 11 print edition: I’m not against Ben Roethlisberger, and wish him and his family good health, but how does he deserve the headline when there is so much more important news to report? That’s what the Sports pages are for.
