Opinion Line Extra (July 24)

I don’t see how any grandparent could support President Obama or Hillary Clinton. Obama has added $9 trillion to our national debt. Clinton’s campaign promises will add another $10 trillion. This is irreparable damage to our grandchildren.

The Republican Party has changed. I remember when Reagan’s campaign theme was: “It’s morning in America.” Trump’s campaign theme seems to be: “You’re all going to die.”

I am a registered Republican who will soon change my affiliation. This party of fearmongering, cruelty to “other” and disregard for facts is not the party I joined 40 years ago.

So you support Clinton, who helped negotiate a nuclear treaty with the Iranians that, if they honor it – which they’ve not done to date – will allow them to build nuclear weapons in 11 years? You can thank her in the last second you have after seeing the bright flash of light.

Ted Cruz is the most thin-skinned person I have ever seen.

I guarantee that if you comb through Trump’s business dealings as closely as Clinton has had her life picked over for the past 20 years, you will find much more dirt in his past than hers. Start digging.

Isn’t the Donald wonderful? When he sees a Mack Truck barreling down the road in order to kill hundreds of people, he’s going to jump out in front of it to stop it since he’s going to be the “safety” president. He gets my vote (when hell freezes over).

“It’s time to ban assault trucks” is the cry from the right in an attempt to prove a point about gun control. I’m still guessing that you want to have a gun to defend yourself, not a truck.

Politics today is not just voting for the lesser of two evils. In this year when truth has disappeared, the most accurate thing to say is, voters will vote about what they are willing to believe about a candidate, and what they are willing to ignore about a candidate.

North Carolina is right. The NBA is wrong. Boys should use the boys’ bathroom and girls should use the girls’ bathroom.

No, you are not the only one to think the Trivago guy is creepy. He needs to shower, shave and put on clean clothes before making a commercial. He looks like he just woke up on his buddy’s couch after partying all night.

“M.A.S.H.” was a great show until Mike Farrell (B.J. Hunnicutt) came along.
