Opinion Line Extra (Aug. 10)

The USA’s first gold medal was in the women’s 10-meter air rifle competition. Way to go. The shooting team probably will be outlawed if Hillary gets in.

Donald Trump’s tax plan sounds just like Sam Brownback and Susan Wagle’s – everything for the rich and nothing for the middle class. If you live in Kansas, you know how well it has worked out.

If you like what Brownback has done for Kansas, you’ll love what Trump will do to the United States.

By illegally using a private e-mail server while secretary of state, Clinton potentially exposed top-secret information to hostile countries. Even though she had no criminal intent, she cannot qualify for government employment. She will need security clearance if elected president.

If you want to know how Trump as president would treat our allies around the world, just look at how he treats fellow members of the GOP such as House Speaker Paul Ryan and Sen. John McCain.

Trump states that he will get rid of the Washington insiders if elected. Then he will replace them with his insiders.

Warren Buffett is way richer than Donald Trump. When Buffett makes his tax returns public and Trump refuses, it makes me believe Trump is hiding something.

When I see evangelicals praising Trump, I wonder how they can possibly justify that in light of Christ’s life and teachings.

At these Hillary rallies she is screaming she is raising taxes on the middle class, and everyone is clapping and yelling wildly. Guess what? You are the middle class. The middle-class people are all the workers who can’t make ends meet, and you want your taxes raised?

Obama is being the most productive he’s been in quite some time. You do know he’s on another vacation, don’t you?

I want to see sanctions against Iran, Mr. President, not a payday of $400 million for ransom.

It would be nice if the U.S. cared as much about its own citizens as it does about illegals and refugees.

I received several mailings, three telephone calls and two house calls from Jeremy Alessi’s campaign. I received no mailings from Roger Elliott’s campaign, but Elliott won the Statehouse bid for District 87. This proves that you cannot buy an election.
