LETTER: You get the respect you deserve

Updated June 19, 2019 - 9:16 am

I almost spit out my coffee when I read Linda Lakin’s Monday letter to the editor.

She stated that nobody should use derogatory names when referring to the president.

Perhaps if Donald Trump himself didn’t refer to his opponents with disrespectful, juvenile nicknames (Pocahontas, Sleepy Joe, Lyin’ Ted, etc.), the media, academia, Hollywood and everyday Americans wouldn’t call him names either.

If he acted in a more dignified manner, he would engender more respect.

Donald Trump and Sam Brown are extremists. These are two men who would sooner throw your vote away if it’s not for them.
