Trump, not Clinton, our only serious choice
Re “Hillary Clinton is the only serious choice we have for president” letter by Michal Hall.
I, and millions of other Americans, strongly disagree with Mr. Hall.
Clinton has, through her entire career, proven herself to be corrupt, manipulative, incompetent and a world-class liar. She was a terrible secretary of state and is largely responsible, along with the Obama administration, for the mess we're in today.
Regarding women's rights, she openly condoned her husband's behaviors and belittled and tried to silence women who had been involved with Bill Clinton through the years. Through their corrupt Clinton Foundation, she openly accepted donations from the very countries she was supposedly negotiating with, countries with dismal human rights and women's rights records. The Foundation is a depository of “pay to play,” political favors and not a charity.
She is still under investigation for her emails which definitely contained classified data. By the way, Hillary, “C” stands for confidential. We thought you knew that!
Regarding rigged elections, Mr. Hall, do you not find it interesting that President Obama did not win in one state that required voter ID? That in some towns there were more voters than residents? Hillary would just be an extension of Obama's failed policies, only worse. She wants to welcome thousands of unvetted Syrians, thereby opening up our country to more terrorism and people who will not assimilate and try to become good citizens. Witness Europe and the chaos over there because of these refugees. With her policies, it could happen here.
She and the Democrats would drag this country down into an abyss of spending and taxes and loss of freedoms.
Donald Trump is the only serious candidate. He is a true American who loves this country and would lead us in the right direction of more jobs, less government and common sense policies. He would make America great again and it is up to us, the “Deplorables” and others, to vote for him and help him succeed. God Bless America!
