      Letter: Resisting Trump's Distractions

      • Gary Haslett, SaddleBrooke

      Trump is doing everything possible to attract attention and distract from real problems. Rather than reacting to his outrageous claims and soundbites, voters must focus and keep asking questions like the following:

              The federal government managed to become more fiscally inept during the past fiscal year, running a deficit of $2 trillion. That’s a $218 billion increase from the previous 12 months.

                        France’s crisis keeps getting more extreme, spilling over into broader protests that precipitated hundreds of millions of euros in damage and nearly 2,400 arrests.

                          That Hurricane Isaias didn’t ruin more lives or property is not because Florida got smarter about predicting windstorms. It’s because Florida got lucky.

                            Local opinion: What leaders like John McCain understood about the truth

                            A defining moment from John McCain’s 2008 campaign is being revisited as a reminder of political integrity, highlighting the importance of correcting misinformation — even within one’s own party — in today’s polarized climate.
