Trump speaks truth, liberals go on attack

-

Donald Trump’s rising poll numbers are causing the far left to use extreme language. We hear words like racist, hate, the “F” word and other obscene language describing one or the other candidates for president. I hear it from friends and relatives, casual acquaintan­ces and in the newspaper, for example.

Words do mean something. David Collins probably has never met or talked with Trump. He describes Trump’s character in despicable terms. We need specific terms to identify the good and the bad in candidates, but there’s no need to use terms that are obscenely understood and it’s unbecoming to a good columnist like Collins to fall into that trap.

Hillary Clinton called 50 percent of Trump’s supporters “deplorable,” followed by words that indicated that they were badly educated, failing in intelligen­ce and were essentiall­y moronic because of their Trump support.

To all of you, I suggest that Trump’s clear concise descriptio­n of his opponent as “a crook, a liar, and a thief,” is part of the reason for his rising poll numbers. You may not like his ego, his politicall­y incorrect language, or his loud mouth, but you have to accept his talent for management of his businesses. You are hearing his truth about our country and how to save it and untold millions believe in him.
