Sir, I could not agree more with the observations and opinions you express about our current president. Only my reading of American history gives me any comfort; Trump may be the worst president since Andrew Jackson, but America has survived bad presidents before. May Divine Providence protect and preserve us.

You're not alone on the lawn. Many of us are horrified. If it were up to us, I'd put you on the lawn for $10.00....

On Augusta... "everyone wants to be there"... I agree... It also applys to Baseball's Spring Training games, but perhaps those have one thing over Augusta... no one cares if there is a win or loss...

You are correct when you lament the manner in which the President speaks. He is unfit to lead such a splendid people, and a magnificent Nation. His significant character defects are an affront to American Exceptionalism.

It is intriguing to think that if Americans had elected the most qualified candidate in 2012, Mr. Trump would still be a game show host hocking steak knives on late night TV.

President Trump is not heralded in Canada to any degree. I often suggest to my Countrymen that President Trump is not a conservative, and he is barely a Republican. He is an illiberal, nationalist populist. Conservatism may be a big tent ideology, but there is no tent in the world with fabric capable of stretching to fit over this fellow. If enough principled conservatives man the barricades, we can hold them off until 2028.

Marco Rubio may have donned a deceptive cloak, but he is close enough to the real deal for me.

I don't understand the flirtation and fixation with bloodthirsty tyrants, or the refusal to enthusiastically support Ukraine. We shall see whose IQ shines brightest.

A saying from Maurice Switzer's humorous book, Mrs. Goose, Her Book, copyrighted in 1906, published in 1907: "It is better to remain silent at the risk of being thought a fool, than to talk and remove all doubt of it."

The talkative 47th U.S. president, I’m sorry to say, has removed all doubt of it.

You'd be a steal at 59 cents, Jay. I'd start you at ninety-nine, minimum.

If nothing else, we all should be demanding decency. Simple,common decency.

I know I should take the medicine of awareness ofTrump’s insane rantings but it tastes so bad. I feel a little ill now.
