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: This world has known only one Adolf Hitler. When one likens an American politician to Hitler — as Timothy W. Ryback does in his April 8 op-ed article noting the similarities in how Hitler and Trump used their trials as soapboxes — no matter how much one dislikes that politician or disapproves of their words, thoughts and actions, much credibility is lost and the evil of Hitler is minimized. Mark Haas, Sherman Oaks .. To the editor: The historical parallels between Hitler and the...
To the editor: Reporter David Lauter misses the point of why billionaires have "moved" into supporting Donald Trump for president. He narrowly focuses on their fear of higher taxes. In fact, the wealthy who support the former president do so for many reasons only indirectly related to taxes. Primarily, they — like Trump — desire to rebuild an economy in service of the working class, allowing those in it to afford life in this country, to own homes, to provide for medical care and to save for...
NY Post readers discuss jurors selected for Donald’s Trump criminal trial involving alleged hush money payments.
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 saying that former President Trump's criminal trial in New York hardly warrants a "meh," UCLA law professor Richard L. Hasen sounds like a sportscaster before any sporting event, touting one team over the other. He opines on how the event will play out and the fan reactions to the perceived outcome. Everybody has an opinion about Trump's criminal trial related to his pre-2016 election payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels, but no one can say for sure what will occur and how...
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...
