When you have to hide your face at a demonstrat­ion you are a terrorist. Antifa should be considered a terrorist group. Also there is a video of Donald Trump going back 30 years or more of him saying consistent­ly that he is against the KKK and terrorist groups. So everything you’re hearing in the news today is fake about him being for David Duke.

Aleksandr Solzhenits­yn said the principal trait of the entire 20th Century has forgotten God. Spiritual renewal is the foundation of national renewal. When minorities become the rulers of society we lose freedom and democracy. The Democrats like the Hungarian communist George Soros, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are destroying us. They are the enemies within our shores.

This guy ruined it for everybody. An older man was begging for money to catch the bus in Allentown. He looked physically disabled so I gave him some money to catch the bus. Fifteen minutes later I found him in the store about a half-a-mile down the road buying cigarettes with the money I gave him. Never again buddy.

President Trump has really been hammering Mitch McConnell lately and I have to totally agree. McConnell is the congressio­nal majority leader. He got nothing done when Obama was president and now he’s getting nothing done now. He’s the poster boy for gridlock. They need to get him out and put somebody else in. McConnell just does not do his job about anything.

The other day I was driving on Industrial Avenue to avoid the traffic lights on High Street and a bicyclist was also riding there. He was riding on the wrong side of the road. I guess now the taxpayers will have to spend a couple hundred dollars on a sign to tell the bicyclists what side of the road to use. Taxpayer

To the person saying he hopes that Democrats are proud of themselves for tearing down the president since he was inaugurate­d and that you didn’t hear all this so-called carrying on when Mr. Obama was in office, you’re correct. At that time it was the Republican­s doing all the bashing. What goes around comes around. Fact

Would really like to know how can any of you people out there support a man who lies, cheats, steals and then lies again and blames everybody else? Tell me, are you deaf, blind or are you on drugs? It doesn’t make sense. The man is a liar.

This has to do with the transgende­rs and the NFL. Why doesn’t the NFL have transgende­r cheerleade­rs and as a matter of fact why don’t they have transgende­rs playing football? Also, why don’t they stop keeping score and make everybody a winner? This world’s crazy.

There’s one major flaw in Mr. Hylton’s commentary about a colleague spending more than 100 hours painstakin­gly counting each parking space. Most residents in this town would rather have their vehicle parked right in front of their house where they have at least some type of chance of catching somebody doing some type of vandalism or theft from their vehicle. So why doesn’t he take that into account for walking two blocks to park your car somewhere?

Donald Trump campaigned that he would build a wall and Mexico would pay for it. I can still hear the chants “who’s going to pay for it?” And the crowd would scream back “Mexico.” Now he has threatened that if the money is not in the federal budget for his wall he will shut the U.S. government down. Why doesn’t Donald pay for it? Is this the way the president of the United States should act? I rest my case.

This is to the person who says about Donald Trump not being in the service but was Barack Obama in the service? No neither one was in the service but Donald Trump had a five-time deferment from the bone spurs on his foot but that doesn’t stop him from playing golf three times a week and walking out there. So tell me about that.

I am proud of how much our president has accomplish­ed regardless of the constant attacks by the media and groups trying to destroy him. It’s quite obvious the losers have a totally different agenda. They are tearing our country apart how they talk about Trump while being themselves some of the most hateful, intolerant, ignorant people being paid to present total lies. Wake up America. Lady Di

In 1949 George Orwell wrote in his book “1984,” that “Every record has been destroyed, every book rewritten, every statue and building renamed, every date has been altered. History has stopped. Nothing exists but an endless present in which the party is always right.” Sounds like today in the USA.
