Trump is despicable

Yes, there are despicable people in the United States.

Those who disrespect our military heroes like Arizona Sen. John McCain are despicable. People who are sexist, racist and bigoted are despicable. A person who disrespects a Gold Star family whose son was killed fighting for the United States is despicable. One who mocks a handicapped person is despicable. One who refers to women as sluts and pigs is despicable.

I could go on and on pointing out the despicable words and actions of Donald Trump, but why? It seems like Trump supporters ignore all the facts, just like he does. Recently, USA Today labeled Trump a “serial liar,” and declared him to be unfit for the presidency.

Another recent letter to the editor in the Observer-Reporter stated Trump is proud of the United States.

Is that why he pays no federal income tax, stiffs his construction workers by declaring bankruptcy and encouraging Russia to hack into our computers? That sounds like a great American citizen, doesn’t it?

Hillary Clinton is not the ideal person to be president, but she is light years better than Trump.
