Congratulations to “Boardman” for chastising “Canfield” for his disgraceful rhetoric concerning our president. I am one of many who find “Canfield” disgusting and I wonder why he deserves so much weekly space in The Vindicator. Only in America!

The thing that bothers me the most about the radical left is how they refuse to believe Trump is our one true God. He knows more than all of the experts combined. He ran many businesses and he is very, very rich. And why do we need allies if He can stop all wars in 1 day? We don’t need to worry about the Supreme Court because he will pick them. No need to balance budgets or observe the constitutional balance of powers for elections. In Don We Trust! Habeas corpus? Habeas schmabeas!

A writer from Youngstown said they were amused at the President’s supporters who feel he cares for them. During President Trump’s first term my retirement fund made $48000. Under Joe Biden I lost $20000. In the last 18 months under President Trump my account earned $15000. This is because of the President’s policies. I don’t know about you but I think that’s caring for us.

I respond to the Canfield writer declaring Democrats whining. I, and most Democrats, try to keep open minds. We listen and can agree to disagree. We are not all made from the same mold. We back the blue and don’t attack the Capitol Police force. Most of us have never voted against a police levy. I don’t support fraud such as the reflecting pool no-bid contracts. We don’t believe in election fraud. We don’t believe in different rules for Americans. We don’t believe in the inequality in income taxes and most support public schools.

A reply to the ridiculously humorous Sound Off last week. Democrats love their country, the American flag, the police and are proud to be American. They don’t like a President who is so narcissistic that everything is about him, not the country. They don’t like rioters who attack our Capitol. They don’t like a President who is too insecure to accept that he LOST the election, and who always lies. And they don’t like people who are afraid of anyone that doesn’t look or act like them.

Trump keeps undermining elections to scare citizens from voting. Get out and vote. it is your right as a US citizen. Your vote is super important to the future of your city and your nation.

Let’s talk about what’s obvious and what’s obviously BS: To be a Democratic Socialist is not the same as being a Communist. That’s what MAGA liars want you to believe; the same boogeyman propaganda disgraced demagogue Joe McCarthy spouted in the 1950s. Just like another Gary Varvel MAGA political cartoon in The Vindicator showing a donkey’s mirror-image being Karl Marx. Democratic means people have a vote. MAGA means people have a king — no vote — just dictatorship, like Communism.

What happened to this Supreme Court? Apparently, SCOTUS conservatives are now anti-black/brown and anti-immigrant. Sad because America’s a country of immigrants! Yet 6/25/26 majority ruling stripped Haitians of their TPS due to lawless status in Haiti that exists today. Sending to Haiti would be a death sentence. VP Vance contrived the conspiracy about eating pets in Springfield, Ohio AND 47 repeated the LIES. Here Haitians are honest, productive, tax-payers WELCOME HERE! RBG would be APPALLED as AM I.

I would wish that meteorologists would report only the facts about the weather. Not adding adjectives such as “gloomy” or “comfortable.” Perhaps this is their personal opinion in the newsroom. However, I LOVE a rainy day, and 80-plus is in no way comfortable to me or my husband with our breathing and functioning. “Just the facts, Maam, only the facts.”

6/25/2026: Today we have witnessed the most white supremacist corrupt Supreme Court rulings since the 1857 Dred Scott decision in which it was declared that black people are not citizens (humans). America is not made up of animals who hate others indiscriminately. But it seems the high court’s majority is! God help us all, OMG!

47 insisted the Pool renovation be colored blue and completed by 7/4. A previously contracted company refused. The no-bid contract was awarded to 47 donor’s company. The contract was signed by an unidentified person from US Dept. Interior, National Park Service. Public record indicated WARRANTY was NOT included. [Note: 47’s motorcade DROVE through the pool, COST $14.7 million.] Within days, the algae reappeared and the blue material pieces floated to the top. Immediately, 47 reported that vandals were responsible for the failure! BLAME projected!
