A different take on Obama

Posted November 06, 2018 12:00 am

Response to Stefanie O'Reilly's Oct. 11 letter: I take issue with your article stating Trump is a better President than President Obama. President Obama inherited an 800,000-a-month jobs loss, which he turned into 200,000 jobs added each month. He tripled the market from 6,500 to over 18,500, killed bin Laden, provided health insurance to over 43 million people.

The Benghazi controversy wasted $5 million dollars and seven Congressional hearings to prove Hillary was guilty of nothing. Trump has increased our national debt by 73 percent with his tax cuts to the top one percent. Many in his administration have been indicted or have plead guilty. Trump has alienated the U.S. from our allies and friends throughout the world. Trump praises Putin over our FBI.

Trump promised a wall that Mexico will pay for. Never happened. No health care plan. Many on his staff have wasted taxpayers' money. Trump has decimated the EPA. We don't need clean air and water. Trump has dodged his share of taxes for many years. His Trump University was a fraud. His Trump Foundation is under investigation for fraud. He is breaking the enrichment rules in many ways.

Trump preaches hate.
