Hypocrisy on display

Mon., April 8, 2019

Sherry Koers (“Both parties guilty,” March 29) is a “liberal Democrat” who is concerned that other Democrats have spread lies to “further anger” toward President Trump and his supporters. Then, ironically, she claims the president “lies every time he opens his mouth.” This statement is itself a lie spread by Democrats to further anger toward Trump.

The point of Ms. Koers’ letter is that “both parties are guilty in believing what’s worst about the other” after she herself went on a diatribe about Trump. Give me a break!
