Insulted the military

You’ve finally done it, Donnie. I thought your pretending to be the law-and-order president was nuts when you yourself have made such a mockery of “the rule of law,” having apparently broken at least three major laws in the past few weeks (emoluments; Hatch act; encouraging your base to vote twice, etc.). But there is really no hope for you now.

You have denigrated my Navy husband (Cuban missile crisis); my highly decorated Marine favorite uncle (Pacific theater; deceased); my first boyfriend (West Point, Vietnam); our best man (Korea; deceased); my lieutenant colonel cousin (Vietnam) and scores of others. And the ladies who were nurses, encryptionists, clerks, and military training pilots (our own Louise Thaden); not to mention the legendary Tuskegee airmen, Navaho code talkers and an endless list of “losers and suckers.” Really, Donnie???

You pretend to sing their praises when the cameras are on, but now we have big-time proof of your hypocrisy as “commander-in-chief.” You praise the police, too, but are you aware that most police departments search for job candidates among the retired military? And how many of your loyal base made the same sacrifices and served with honor and distinction as well? I hope they’re not still supporting you after your vile insults.

If I were you, I wouldn’t go near a military parade-ground, a cemetery, a military base, a funeral home, a military hospital or a VA installation. Those “losers and suckers” paid for all of them, plus the public housing you’re inhabiting right now. But don’t worry; we’ll all help you pack. LINDA A. FARRELL Bella Vista
