To the Editor: I am proud of President Biden, and the accomplishments of his administration. His address to our nation was inspirational, but not to some, especially the former Republican president. He is the one who thinks he should rule like the dictators he fawns over. He is the candidate who makes a habit of mocking others, our President, a reporter with physical disabilities and Senator John McCain for the permanent injuries he sustained serving our country. During his presidency, he asked that wounded veterans not be allowed in military parades, “ nobody wants to see that”, he said. The disappointing response of his followers with cheers, laughter and applause at his rallies is disgusting. It’s like cheering on a mean, spoiled little brat who has no self impulse control. He encourages his followers to be the worst version of themselves. Think of a person you know who may be harassed because this bully says and demonstrates that it is OK to be cruel. This negatively impacts our society, much like hate speech. These are not the actions and reactions of a Christian who follows the teachings of Jesus. It boggles my mind as to how any person in our country would be proud to have Trump as our president. Once was more than enough. Valerie Deur Newaygo, MI.
