Letter to the editor: Lessons in 'classless' from Trump

Such a shame that the leader of our country (not the free world — I say that’s Angela Merkel; among our allies Xi and Putin are more trusted!) got booed at Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s funeral. Seems that the Dems aren’t very good at classless.

For the best classless, the greatest classless, we need to take lessons from President Trump: So far, more than 20,000 lies while in office, according to some sources; disparaged Joe Biden’s son for having an addiction; allowed peaceful protesters to be teargassed and shot with rubber bullets for a photo op; paid $750 in federal income tax; publicly incited violence for political gain; “I don’t take responsibility at all” (covid-19 response); mocking war heroes; knowingly exposed people to covid-19; and the list goes on.

When Trump is out of office — and possibly in jail for treason, tax fraud or obstruction of justice — we can look back and wish the Dems had thrown rotten eggs instead of boos. Classless indeed.
