  • Heading to Helsinki, Finland – looking forward to meeting with President Putin tomorrow. Unfortunately, no matter how well I do at the Summit, if I was given the great city of Moscow as retribution for all of the sins and evils committed by Russia…

    …over the years, I would return to criticism that it wasn’t good enough – that I should have gotten Saint Petersburg in addition! Much of our news media is indeed the enemy of the people and all the Dems…

    …know how to do is resist and obstruct! This is why there is such hatred and dissension in our country – but at some point, it will heal!

  • These Russian individuals did their work during the Obama years. Why didn’t Obama do something about it? Because he thought Crooked Hillary Clinton would win, that’s why. Had nothing to do with the Trump Administration, but Fake News doesn’t want to report the truth, as usual!

  • I am still reeling after seeing clips on TV of Donald Trump at a July 5 rally in Montana, which the Post-Gazette made no mention of. He was—as usual—boasting, bragging, bullying, slamming the legitimate news media, twisting the truth into tatters and, worst of all, uttering the meanest of racial, ethnic and sexist remarks. And the crowd was cheering.

    I wonder how many of them or their relatives depend on Social Security, Medicare and/​or welfare? They should worry instead of cheer!

    Here’s a suggestion: Put Mr. Trump’s entire diatribe, unedited, on your front page. I have a theory that many people reading newspapers or watching the nightly news don’t see Mr. Trump in full fury, so they don’t understand how he’s altering our morality as a nation. I find it terrifying.

    And you can maybe win a Pulitzer Prize by reporting on just how many rallies he is doing, what he says at them, who is paying for them and who is running the country while he is out running his mouth.

    Note from KBJ: Poor Helen Wilson! She still doesn't understand Donald Trump or why he won. He will win by an even bigger margin in 2020, by which time Helen will have been institutionalized for derangement.
