To the editor:
Listening to House impeachment manager Rep. Adam Schiff speak about the need to convict President Trump brought me to tears. As he explained why this president, who puts his own personal interest above those of our country, needs to be removed, he made an impassioned plea to all Americans.
Do we honor truth and what is right? If not, we are lost. This is a time when divisiveness and partisan politics must be set aside. Our nation faces the loss of its foundational democratic principles and constitutional system of checks and balances if Trump is not removed from power. The United States is a country based on the rule of law and equal justice for all, and no one, not even the president, is above the law.
Soon we will vote in the 2020 election. May we remember Schiff’s words and consider the legacy we want to leave for future generations.

Note from KBJ: Anyone with a brain can see that Adam Schiff is filled with hatred for Donald Trump, so much so that he has become deranged. He's now the face of the Democrat Party. Good luck this fall, Barbara!
