Trump’s Detractors

To the Editor:

As I read the letters to the Editor in last Friday’s FC Record, I was reminded of a line from Victor David Hanson’s commentary in the Daily Signal, Jan. 24, 2025, “Donald Trump won the 2024 election in part because the Left’s hysterical style of attacking him no longer worked.” It still doesn’t. The authors of these “hysterical” letters offer no “reasoned counterarguments.” He goes on to say, “the exhausted public finally concluded that the hysterics increased in direct proportion to the poverty of the charges,” and asked the question, “what did 10 years of such derangement achieve for the Left?”

Forgive me for quoting but I can’t say it any better than Mr. Hanson, “the Left wants no debate because they know voters have rejected what they saw and suffered during the past four years of the Biden administration.

Forgetting nothing, learning nothing, like zombies, leftists keep screaming banalities. But like addicts and their feel-good fixes, their hysterics only further turn off the public as they destroy themselves.”

The cure for “Trump derangement syndrome,” which seems to be a real thing, begins with an objective assessment of American values. Many of us have similar values that require accuracy and honesty about American history, accountability regarding individual and corporate action as well as responsibility—all of which must be restored.

I think Trump’s objectives are independence and safety for the American citizen versus the dependency to the administrative state and neglect and abuse of America’s God given assets.
