Letter to the editor: Why Democrats hate Trump

You’re on the 50th floor of a burning building with two choices: be consumed by the fire or jump. At the last minute, a fireman appears; however, you are acquainted with him and rumors say he is a sexist, racist, homophobic womanizer. What to do? Jump into his arms, or jump from the balcony?

The burning building represents the state of our government, the fireman is President Trump and you, a Democrat, despise him. Maybe you don’t know why.

Some Democrats don’t hate Trump because of the stated reasons; they hate him because he is draining the swamp in which they reside. Are you familiar with the corruption in the FBI and Justice Department? Do you think people the likes of James Clapper, John Brennan and James Comey could withstand the scrutiny of a special prosecutor? If your response is “duh,” please don’t vote.

The mainstream media — under control of the swamp? — reports nothing positive about our president. Thus, low-information Democrats (most of them?) couldn’t possibly know that Trump has accomplished more for the good of the nation in three years than any other president before him. Trust his record, not what your party leaders espouse.

Some Democrats look you in the eye and say they will raise your taxes and take away your Second Amendment rights, yet morons will still vote for them. If you are one, you must be driven by all the free stuff to which you think you are entitled.
