To the Editor:
I don’t understand Hillary Clinton’s infatuation with Donald Trump’s tax returns. Of course Mr. Trump pays little or nothing in taxes. He’s a brilliant businessman whose job is to maximize the bottom line for both his company and himself.
Moreover, what businessman in his right mind who detests waste, fraud and abuse would willingly give more money than absolutely necessary to the bloated United States government?
And if Mr. Trump is, indeed, not paying his “fair share,” according to Mrs. Clinton’s arbitrary standards, what does this say about President Obama’s lack of leadership the last eight years? Wasn’t his hope and change campaign supposed to fix all these inequities?

Note from KBJ: This is the only letter (of many) in which the writer did not support Hillary Clinton. What does that say about the readership of the New York Times? Can you say "insular"?
