I’ll take Trump

Finally some letters to the editor not hailing Queen Hillary. I can’t believe it. I’m in shock.

After being in the political arena all my life, 60 years, it has been discouraging and depressing to observe how deceptive are the Clintons and how fooled have been the American people, especially the media like yourselves.

In the 1960s, Marshall McLuhan wrote a book titled “The Medium is the Message.” We now have to say this has now come true. The media no longer report the “news,” they make up the “news.” I could say God help us all if Hillary becomes president but who cares about God anymore?

This country is involved in an election unlike no other in our 240-year history. My generation, along with all previous generations, have paved the path to this point. We as a nation are at a definite crossroads. Clinton or Trump? I’ll take Trump.
