Letter to the editor: Media, Trump & double standards

Tribune-Review
| Friday, July 19, 2019 10:00 a.m.

Talk about a double standard! How come it’s OK for some Democratic congresswomen to say whatever derogatory things about the president they wish, but it’s not OK for the president to get angry and call them out for it?

I understand the bitterness of current political discourse, but the readiness of the media, including the Associated Press, to add the claim that the president is picking on women and “playing the race card” only adds fuel to that conflagration. Sometimes things are what they are and need to be reported without the addition of inflammatory comments.
