This letter is in response to Edward Bell’s letter to the editor published on April 21 titled “Time for liberals living in elitist bubbles to intellectually confront reality”.

Interesting rhetoric that seems to have come mostly from the President’s campaign script. As campaigns go it was more ideological than fact, and at times blatantly misleading, with little regard for the truth.

Here are some indisputable facts about this man who is far from ideal material:

He has many more bankruptcies, than wives, past and present.

He has never paid the owed salaries to 1,300 employees in his bankrupt Trump Casino in Atlantic City. Ironically he says he wants to bring jobs back to America, for whose benefit I wonder. It would be a good start if he paid these people. These jobs he’s talking about was there mention of proper wages, benefits, etc.

He is unwilling to submit his latest tax return. Why ?

And the real clincher… He has paid a $25 million fine for fraudulent activity regarding his bogus Trump University. Unprecedented.

I don’t think I would buy a car off this guy, would you? Ha, ha, ha.

I would like to finish with some civility, without insults, and let you know that I am a very keen admirer of President Eisenhower, who has contributed more to this country, with grace and honor, than any other Republican president since. What has happened to this once great party of Lincoln and Eisenhower?
