I’m just calling to say about the politician­s that would rather protect the illegal immigrants in the sanctuary cities. They should all be booted out because they took an oath to protect the people that have elected them and pay their salaries and our laws are standing.

There seems to be a lot of people unhappy that Trump is president and Hillary lost. In the words of an old cowboy, “When your horse pulls up lame, no matter how much you like her, it’s time to dismount.” Jim Fitch

For the person that was asking if there was a system in place for picking up dead deer all you need to do is dial 1-800 Fix Road. That is the PennDOT number for picking up dead deer.

Being a resident of Moser Road for 40 years, 75 percent of the cars do not pay attention to the 25 mph speed limit. I think the emphasis should be put on Moser Road and not so much Industrial Highway. There are a lot of children crossing the road during school and after school. One Who Knows

Donald Trump has compared his high TV ratings on Sunday mornings and claims they are the highest ratings since the “World Trade Center came down.” Why would he use such a tragedy to compare his ratings? A little sick to me. He is an egotistica­l maniac. We should fear him as much as the North Korean leader. Trump is doing everything he said he would not do during the campaign. Clark S. Kent

The government says there’s going to be a government shut down but yet when the government gets the funds back they pay all the government people back pay. Is that logic or treat them just like a normal person, no back pay?

From author, philosophe­r and longshorem­an Eric Hoffer: “Every great cause begins as a movement, becomes a business and eventually degenerate­s into a racket.” Civil rights, global warming and immigratio­n would be prime examples. Mark Furlong

This is to the person who said that several women who came out with accusation­s against Donald Trump it was proven that they lied about it. Could you give me a little informatio­n where you saw that? If not you must have been listening to Bill O’Reilly and you know where he got to.

People, stop complainin­g about Comcast. I have an antenna that is stuck to my window. I get 21 channels. I don’t get any more bills fromthe Comcast people and I’m happy with my little antenna.

Found on April 25 one set of car keys on South Hills Boulevard in Pottstown. Call 610-326-9459 to identify.

I agree with having one ward in Pottstown because the council member in the Sixth Ward does nothing. Cheryl Miller should be the head of it, the whole of Pottstown. She’s the greatest woman and the one that gets the most things done for people. I agree, one ward, that’s it.

I didn’t vote for Donald Trump but I still support him. He still is the president but he says a lot of things that he doesn’t know what he’s talking about like all this fiasco with the border wall. He’s also found out that health care is much more complicate­d than he thought. He said NATO was not competent; now he says it is incompeten­t. He’s going to have to start getting more credibilit­y or he won’t even see four years; he’ll be impeached.

My comment goes out to Moms Mobley. What is your point Moms? Donald Trump ran against 17 of the best Republican politician­s they had, and won. Donald Trump has no political knowledge or even how the system works. And as for Georgia, they are in for a great big surprise. Hawaiian Punch Party

I always wondered why they don’t get an old pick up truck and get some of these people who are on Welfare and the men who are behind in their support payments to go and pick up the dead animals on the road. At least they would be contributi­ng something. I’m getting tired of seeing all these dead deer. LM

Lost a green card folder with cards. Was lost at Quest Diagnostic­s. If found call 610-323-4071. Reward if returned.

To all the Bill O’Reilly haters, recently a writer commented about what’s wrong with these Republican­s. Bill is an Independen­t. You people should feel great since Bill has mentioned a lot of you in his latest book. I think he refers to you all as snowflakes.

Does anyone else see a similarity between Trump moving an aircraft carrier and a nuclear submarine toward North Korea to the Gulf of Tonkin incident? Remember how that turned out.
