What those who fear danger from Trump see

In a recent letter defending Donald Trump, the writer said, "Trump haters see only accusations of so-called bad behavior."

Those of us who see Trump as a danger to our democracy don't just see bad behavior. We see a traitor who tried to overturn an election through violence. We see a criminal who has been indicted four times.

And just to correct a few other statements made in the letter: There was a war with Afghanistan going on while Trump was in office. While Trump reduced legal immigration, illegal immigration actually rose during Trump's administration.

And there are not two systems of justice when it comes to the mishandling of classified documents. Biden cooperated in the investigation and a special prosecutor is not bringing any charges. Donald Trump refused to return hundreds of documents he kept at Mar-A-Lago to the National Archives and then ignored subpoenas and obstructed justice to cover his crimes and is awaiting trial.

Trump divided this country more than any single person has done. He must not be elected again or our Republic will be destroyed. (He's actually said as much.)
