No comparison

I read the letter by Karen Goettsche titled, "Apply decency standards to all" and wondered if it was a joke.

Of the two men Donald Trump is supposedly being unfairly compared to, neither had the ill character to brag publicly about their extracurricular activities. Neither of these gentlemen repeatedly demeaned women, men, the disabled, other countries and ultimately himself. Trump has done all of these while demonstrating vast ignorance and a total lack of self restraint.

I know it's fake news but most of what he says are lies. He has made your average politician seem truthful. He is a hero in his own mind but couldn't hold a candle to Kennedy, who went to war, not the deferment board. As for Clinton, as disgusting as he was, he didn't advertise.

Like I said, Was that a joke?
