In his recent letter (“Let the voters decide Trump’s fate,” Dec. 10), Gary VanderBent writes: “Let the voters of this county decide his fate” to argue against the House impeachment articles accusing President Donald Trump of abusing his office and obstructing Congress.
VanderBent then asks: “What are the Democrats afraid of?” This is the wrong question. The right question must be: “What is Trump so afraid of that he needs to extort foreign governments to cheat to win the 2020 election?" Let’s agree that our democracy is based on honest and fair elections free of Russian, Ukrainian, Chinese or any foreign intrigue.
