No evidence of Trump-Russia collusion

Sir, - I feel that I have to reply to Bob Taylor’s letter alluding that President Trump is heading for his own Watergate.

Firstly, Mr Trump is not a career politician, so is not experience in the art of deceiving the public at large, rather he speaks his own mind, as a successful businessman. The two jobs do not always have the same ethics, or honesty.

The Democrats and some Republicans do not want Mr Trump as President because he is sworn to “drain the Washington swamp” of all its politicians who make millions off the backs of the ordinary citizen.

Before the November election, Barack Obama, laughingly said that noone could “hack” an American election, when Mr Trump appeared to say that it was being rigged by the Democrats.

Of course, when Hillary Clinton bombed, the Democrats had to find a reason to explain for their defeat, hence the Russian collusion with Trump was born.

When James Comey “interfered” with the election with just a week to go before polling, the Democrats were screaming for his dismissal. But when President Trump fired the FBI director, the Democrats suddenly decided that Mr Comey was a saint and had been treated despicably.

There is no evidence of collusion. This is just a vicious, unsubstantiated attack by a vindictive party in opposition against an American patriot who wants to make his country respected at home and abroad. Mike Gardner. 13 Manor Street, Forfar.
