Letter to the Editor

Once again Trump has sunk to a new low, he is comparing himself to our Lord Jesus Christ. To me this is an abomination of the highest order. I know that the Christian Nationalist have his back, God forbid that a woman has a voice or a vote. This morning, his minions are trying to backpedal and play this off. Please, somebody try to wrangle in the spoiled little rich boy before our country is totally ruined.

And any Republicans say different, please fact check me on this if you guts!! Larry Bowen, Candidate for County Commission District 2
