Letter to the editor: We must stop demonizing each other

I am tired of reading letters to the editor from so called “conservatives” who equate worshipping at the altar of Donald Trump as being “real Republicans.” Conservatives come in an array of flavors, including this never-Trumper.

Apparently, if you don’t agree with the far right section of the party that believes in the Trump cult, scorched-earth politics, big government oversight, constant culture wars and zero cooperation with the, evil, un-American liberals, you are “with them” and must be rooted out and what? Destroyed? Jailed? What is the end game?

Get out of your bubble, please. How about a hand across the aisle? You might be surprised to learn that the people you demonize have a lot more in common with you than you think. Do you really think your Biden-voting neighbor hopes to see America go down in flames?

It’s pathetic how we have let our politicians and the media tear us apart. They love it! More votes, more ratings, and the more we hate on each other. We are being played, and most people don’t even realize what they are doing to us.
