Letter to the Editor (Graphic Illustration/MetroCreative)

Let’s go over my critic’s comments one by one. He has to mention more names to support his position than I do. First of all, Trump is a narcissist. Ms. Stiehm in column three of her essay above letters to the editor and my friends agree on this point. If you’re a Trump sycophant, getting a job or promotion means you flatter him — a la Putin — and you don’t criticize his ideas no matter how stupid they are. For less than complimentary comments about Trump, google Trump, moron, secretary of state. Look for the Politico list under that file. My critic will say these comments are from people with a grudge because they were fired. Let me tie this together referring everyone to an earlier letter to the editor comparing Biden and Trump’s cognitive ability, which consists of recall and innate intelligence. Biden’s recall during the debate was a problem, but Trump’s innate intelligence is far worse than Biden’s. I base this on a four-minute interview by a Politico journalist asking Trump about America’s poor performance during the COVID-19 pandemic, which aired on NBC, “fake news.” My critic, watching Fox, “real news,” would not have seen it because Fox airs only clips that flatter Trump. Trump was on the losing side of the interview, and his pathetic responses indicated he did not know about pie charts and the difference between counting and long division. At the end of sixth grade I knew about pie charts, the difference between counting and long division and which you use when. This places Trump’s innate intelligence less than a sixth grader.

I know what I saw and Trump did not fire me!

Defense Secretary Mattis’s comments from the Politico list rate Trump’s innate intelligence between a fifth and sixth grader. From someone that worked with him for six-plus months, this agreement is more than a coincidence. In my opinion Tillerson’s reference to Trump as a profane adjective moron has credence. By analogy, the negative comments by other writers have credence. My critic clearly needs to present more names.

My critic is wrong about the Arlington Cemetery picture. NBC “fake news,” had two pictures, the second one showed the thumbs up and smirk. I know what I saw. Fox “real news,” would not have aired that unflattering picture. Trump, the narcissist, tries to win the hearts of Gold Star Mothers during their difficult time when he really does not care.

Word count precludes exposing critics’ claims about the Dominion voting machines issue. For uncommitted voters, using the mail/early voting, don’t vote for Trump, the moron; he will really mess up the economy, health care, foreign policy to name just a few things.
