Letter to the editor: U.S. had a good run

Joe Biden will be installed as our next president Jan. 20. As the saying goes, “Be careful what you wish for — you may get it.”

Remember this: Biden and Kamala Harris have expressed support for loosening immigration restrictions, free health care for illegals, Medicare for all (watered down) at the expense of private care plans, rejoining the Paris climate accord, reentering the poor nuclear agreement with Iran, going back to the old trade agreements with China and others (maybe Biden owes China?). Let’s not forget the World Health Organization that parroted the Chinese narrative that there was no problem with the coronavirus. Biden wants to send them millions again. He wants to stop fighting the World Trade Organization, which Trump fought for fairness.

Will the Democrats continue to pressure for defunding police and banning fracking?

Our founders are not turning over in their graves any more as their statues are defaced or destroyed, reputations are denigrated, and cities are burned. They are probably saying among themselves, “We started the greatest nation the world has ever experienced and it lasted almost 250 years. Let the implosion begin. It was a good run.”
