King tries to defend the indefensible

In response to Mike King’s letter to the editor of May 15, it is readily apparent by the tone of his diatribe that Mr. King suffers from a severe case of Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Mr. King is still fighting the battle to substantiate the validity of the 2020 election that left us with a dunce for president in Joe Biden. Instead of discussing the issues of: mishandling and destroying the economy with massive budget deficits and raging inflation, weakness shown toward the dictators Putin of Russia and Xi Jinpeng of China, and unleashing the Justice Department on your political opponent, Mr. King focuses on voter fraud in the 2020 election.

Of course, were it left up to me to defend the atrocious record of our Bungler in Chief, Mr. Biden, I too would be tilting at windmills like Mr. King rather than focusing on the vexing issues facing our Republic today. These issues I have outlined strike at the very foundations of our democracy and Mr. King would better serve his cause if he addressed these issues facing our Republic in 2024 instead of the shenanigans surrounding the election of 2020.

Quit trying to defend the indefensible Mr. King and devote your energies to solving the myriad of problems facing our Republic today.
