What are Trump resisters doing to make the country a better place?

In response to Mark Mellett’s Monday letter criticizing the president: If those “resisting” Donald Trump would expel that much energy and time to improve the pathetic condition of this country (which Mr. Trump inherited), they would be doing much more to promote unity than they are bragging about being “resistance warriors.” That attitude and behavior, not Mr. Trump, harms our country.

Whether or not you like Mr. Trump’s style does not afford you the right to obstruct his agenda. His agenda benefits all Americans. I didn’t care for Barack Obama and his do-nothing diplomacy, but I didn’t act like an idiot and verbally criticize or condemn his every move. The office requires respect, regardless of whether or not you like the occupant.

Mr. Trump didn’t become president by electing himself … he was elected by the people. If you weren’t one of them, put on your big-boy pants and accept things as they stand.

LETTER: The carbon-spewing Biden family

Climate change is an existential threat to mankind, animals and plants. Why doesn’t the Biden family lead the way?

LETTER: The Trump show trial

Remember, Martin Luther King, Mahatma Ghandi and Sir Thomas More — all innocent men — were also declared to be guilty.

LETTER: No conspiracy involving Hunter’s laptop

The R-J should acknowledge that Mr. Trump’s lies, frauds, defamations, criminal indictments and convictions are exponentially worse than Hunter’s laptop being evidence or any of the other alleged Biden missteps.

LETTER: Trump tries to win Nevada

Mr. Trump advocating for tax-free tip income is definitely one approach to winning Nevada. But my tip to Mr. Trump is to pick Marco Rubio and show the diversity of the GOP.

LETTER: Red Rock development ‘compromise’ is depressing

Red Rock Canyon is a fragile natural wonder. To claim that 3,500 homes and the traffic that goes with them, and changing the nature of the watershed, will not negatively impact the area is absurd.

LETTER: Russian warships off the Florida coast

It’s strange that the mainstream media are treating Russian combat ships miles off the Florida coast as nothing to see here.
