Don’s Sitdown With Piers: A Showdown Over 2020
THE ISSUE: Piers Morgan’s interview with former President Donald Trump gets testy on the 2020 election.
It is a pity that former President Donald Trump still does not know how to conduct himself when under attack (“Trump is all the rage — at me!” Piers Morgan, April 22). All his accomplishments fall by the wayside.
People are inclined to remember the negatives, not the positives. Trump knew Piers Morgan’s position on most controversial topics, but his ego had to manifest itself.
It’s not too late, Donald. Control your emotions and if you run again for president, it will be a landslide.

What I found most disconcerting about Morgan’s piece about his interview with Trump was when he said, “I told him I believe he lost the supposedly ‘rigged, stolen’ election. I repeatedly pointed out his failure to produce any evidence of the widespread voter fraud he insists occurred to rob him of his presidency.”
To me, the onus of proving the election was rigged was never on Trump to begin with.
Since the election, we’ve definitively found out that the Democrats spied on Trump’s campaign and the Russian Collusion hoax was an orchestrated smear campaign designed to damage his candidacy and presidency.
The deck was never so stacked against a sitting American president by a conspiracy of political opponents, the DC bureaucracy and the media that together would lie, cheat and steal every chance they got to damage the man and his administration.

I have a lot of respect for Morgan, and feel he is an honest and fair reporter. But saying that Trump lost the 2020
election fair and square is simply untrue.
For four years, Trump put America first and worked harder than any president to keep his promises to the American people. The Democrats lied and attacked Trump at every turn, while mainstream media never reported on any of the president’s policies and accomplishments.
Had the media reported on the Hunter Biden laptop story, which they now admit is true, Trump would be president today.

Trump and President Biden suffer from the same malady: Both are self-centered and arrogant.
Trump can’t accept the fact that he lost the 2020 election, and Biden believes that he should run for president in 2024.
How sad that their hubris makes them seem like petulant children who are an embarrassment to themselves and the country.
