LETTER: Don’t impeach Trump, cut him a deal

President Donald Trump clearly needs to go. In that it is unlikely the 25th Amendment will be used, a Democratic Congress is once again calling for impeachment. One has to question whether this will make much difference in actually removing Mr. Trump before Jan. 20.

I would propose a third choice be considered, which is a negotiated deal whereby President Trump agrees to resign with the stipulation that he and his family will not be prosecuted for any federal crimes and that he agrees to never run again for public office.

President Trump can see the handwriting on the wall. His only negotiating card is his ability to determine his departure date. He should cut a deal now realizing that his time will shortly be up.

Mr. Katsilometes is apparently such a slave to celebrity that he is blinded to the character flaws of the violent felon who he remembers in fawning and adoring terms.

LETTER: Justice is not always served

Two Friday articles remind us that our “justice system” does not work well. It works better as an “injustice” system.

I suggest that our politicians spend less time attacking each other and more time developing a plan to reduce inflation.

LETTER: Jacky Rosen runs from her Democrat-ness

As a lifelong Democrat, I agree with Cobey Du’bravo’s Wednesday letter in which he criticized Sen. Jacky Rosen’s campaign ad for implying she is a maverick Democrat.
