We’re ruled by a man unfit for the job. He shows signs of mental illness and instability. His comments often are beyond comprehension. He mocked a heavy-set individual during his rally at the Covelli Centre but seems to forget that he is one of the most obese presidents (see Taft, Cleveland, etc.). How ironic that he pummeled Biden for his mental flaws. The new legislature needs to invoke the 25th Amendment and rid us of the most corrupt and incompetent president we have ever seen.

The election affirmed that it was a Trump-hating exercise. Had a piece of (expletive) been on the ballot, Democrats wouldn’t have hesitated to vote for it. Is your excuse the war vs. Iran? As Trump says, nipping Its production of nuclear weapons in the bud is better than waiting until some pushover president – God help us – assumed the office. Higher fuel prices got you angry? If so, why do Americans continue to pack airline seats? They aren’t cheap. Fallout from tariffs got you fuming? Give them an extended chance to work.

Twelve communities have said no to data centers in their neighborhoods. What part of "no" don’t the community and business leaders understand? Seems all the community and business leaders care about are dollars going into their coffers.

I understand the need to raise the water rates due to EPA regulations and such. That will be a bitter pill for most families in the Valley. When you consider your costs, think of the additional expenses for the area schools where hundreds and thousands of students use water all day long. Support your schools and the need to provide water for their students. Support your LOCAL SCHOOLS' needs.

Lincoln is known to have said, “you can fool all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but you can’t fool all of the people all the time.” DJT’s strength is that he can lie better than any president in history. His weakness is that he invariably begins to believe his own lies. In addition he forces those close to him to repeat his lies. The majority of Americans will no longer be fooled.

On Nov. 5, 2026, the headlines / front page of most every major or minor newspapers in the USA were of their State elections for governors, senators and the House of Representatives.Not our newspaper. Well, at least Trump’s picture was not there. Smile?

This is a new era in our country. Kindness, caring and compassion can return. Throughout our history America had leaders who put our country first, not self. They were well mannered and well spoken, They did not resort to verbiage that was crude and hateful. They did not mock others in nonsensical ways. America should be known for civil leadership, not creating chaos. Our stature among other countries should improve. Let us regain pride in America and come together.
