Letter to the Editor: Submitted by Lowell Engle

To the Editor:

In his letter to the editor printed February 20, Pat Ward rails against  President Trump and what he and the Republican Party have done for the country. We appreciate Mr. Ward’s service to the country, however, he is totally wrong in his assessment of what President Trump is doing and has accomplished.

Mr. Ward fails to recognize that President Trump was put into office  by more than 77 million American voters, many of whom also served this country. I am not sure what Mr. Ward has against those voters, some of whom choose to fly the American Flag.

The United States is enjoying its highest international standing in many years. That has been brought about by the policies formulated by President Trump. The country is enjoying an economic growth that is helping millions of American families. That is something that was not accomplished by the previous corrupt administration.

Mr. Ward should take a close, hard look at what was done by the previous administration and see how many members of that family became wealthy due to the corruption of that family. I don’t know if Mr. Ward is interested in following that lead.

Our country is headed in the right direction and the policies currently being implemented will help the country grow and prosper to the benefit of all, including Mr. Ward. He need not be offended by the MAGA accomplishments.
