To the editor: Thanks to the letter writer who explained billionaires' support of former President Trump for the enlightenment and levity. He wrote that the very wealthy support Trump not for the tax cuts, but for their altruism and Trump’s policies to build the economy, increase homeownership and provide medical care. Increasing home ownership must have been why Trump appointed Steve Mnuchin as Treasury secretary — because when Mnuchin and his partners acquired the failing bank IndyMac and...
Tulsi Gabbard is the smartest and bravest potential vice presidential candidate in America right now, in my opinion, because she speaks the truth.
There is a fundamental flaw in Everett Piper’s argument in “The heart of Donald Trump and the immutable truth” (web, April 13).
Former President Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social on April 19: “We are under political attack from Biden’s D.C. thugs, working closely with the D.A.’s office, in order to help re-elect Crooked Joe Biden, the worst president in history.”
I was disappointed by Tom Howell Jr.’s reporting on the first day of the trial of former President Donald Trump (“Potential jurors stunned as they file into New York courtroom and see Trump on trial,” web, April 15).
To the editor: Our voting choices may be "bleak" for some who feel the candidates do not fully represent or excite them. But what is more bleak is voter apathy, especially now in our current state of political upheaval? ("Biden and Trump’s main challenge? The apathetic voters who could decide the election," April 4) The ship of state is on fire, and we have people refusing to be part of the bucket brigade. Lives are at stake. But they don't like the captain, they complain that there are no fire...
To the editor: The letter writer who defended evangelical Christians' support of former President Trump was at least partially correct — God does accomplish great things through imperfect people. However, his reference to the biblical story of King David doesn't support the notion that God was pleased with how he did things. For the most part, the kings of Israel were such a bad bunch that they led their people into idolatry and ultimately into utter destruction. In the case of David, unlike our...
NY Post readers discuss jurors selected for Donald’s Trump criminal trial involving alleged hush money payments.
Pennsylvania can achieve adequate and equitable school funding, and it’s time for the legislature to take action to produce a sustainable plan to do just that.
To the editor: Buried more than 20 paragraphs into your article on the presidential candidates' instances of dishonesty and mistakes, there is a statement by Joe Biden that is propped up as a lie that justifies this comparison to Donald Trump. President Biden's "lie"? That he visited ground zero in New York the day after 9/11, when he actually went nine days later. Contrasting this misstatement with the torrent of lies and malicious fabrications that flow nonstop from former President Trump, and...
To the editor: In a remarkable moment of clarity, Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) seemed to realize his choice was between dooming GOP control of the House in the 2024 elections by maintaining legislative paralysis, or dooming Donald Trump's candidacy by resolving the issues on which Trump has claimed the big problems can't be solved until he is back in office. ("The House passes billions in aid for Ukraine and Israel after months of struggle," April 20) Johnson did this with a courageous and...
