Letter to the editor: Trump is a traitor to the US

Posted

Since 1788, America’s first election for president of the United States, we have had peaceful and successful transfer of power from one president to the next. The election of 2020 was the first election of a president that did not have a peaceful transfer of power. Trump is to blame. I would propose that Trump is un-American. Trump is a traitor to the United States. Trump has violated his oath of office. Trump preaches sedition and insurrection. Trump, to this day, continues to say that he did not lose the election and that the election was somehow fraudulent. Trump does not hold true the values all Americans should hold true. Honesty. Fairness. Equality. Truth. Justice. Freedom. Trump has violated and ignores all of these values. Trump is a cancer in America. His cancer is contagious and it is spreading. His cancer is dangerous to America. I do not know if America has the will power and the strength to overcome this disease. This disease is very virulent and enticing to the autocrats and dictators in America. Thomas Jefferson wrote, “...all men are created equal.” In Trump’s America, is that true?
