To the editor:<\/p>\n
It is a lie that Iran poses an imminent nuclear threat just like Bush\u2019s lie that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction.<\/p>\n
Trump wants to divert Americans\u2019 attention from his and the Republicans\u2019 failures.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Failures include the economy, ICE\u2019s cruel raids and murders, the crisis in public health as shown by the measles epidemic, our loss of friends and allies around the world, his boundless corruption, and his increasing unpopularity as shown in plummeting polls.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s not forget the Epstein files, rapidly closing in on Trump whose history of sexual assaults make his complicity highly likely.<\/p>\n
He calls hoaxes whenever he mentions climate change, widening inequality, monopolies driving up prices, and declining real income.<\/p>\n
Trump continues to give the very rich tax breaks while cutting back Medicaid and food stamps.<\/p>\n
Trump tries to divert attention to fake problems such as non-Americans voting (Not true), Greenland and Venezuela (No threat), \u201cdisloyal\u201d Americans who criticize him (Keep it up).<\/p>\n
Republicans at the federal, state and local level support his lies.<\/p>\n
