Please get these cartoon characters running for president off my TV. Enough already.


Donald Trump’s generic apology means nothing. If he apologized to the specific people he has mocked, denigrated or lied about, then I might believe he is sincere.


Has the press been bought and paid for by the Democrat Party? Trump (Sam Brownback, etc.) can do no right, while Hillary Clinton and big government proponents are always portrayed as working for the good.


Anyone else get the impression that running for president was just something on Trump’s bucket list? Actually being president was probably not part of the list.


What I am able to discern from media reporting is that it’s acceptable to lie if you are a Democratic candidate for president but not if you are an Olympic swimmer.


Practice holding your nose and voting for Trump by holding the nose with your left hand and, at the same time, placing your right hand tightly over the mouth. Hold until you see the light. Repeat if necessary.


Democrats, do you remember all those unreasonable right-wing extremists who fought to derail Obamacare before it was implemented and have been trying to get it repealed ever since? Maybe you should have listened.


Make God great again.


Everyone on the delinquent tax list is not a deadbeat. Some are already paid but paid too late to not make the list. Some are having a dispute with the appraisal. There are all kinds of reasons that taxes are not paid.


Women, did you not have a life and people who knew you before you got married and changed your last name? Then why don’t you have your maiden name included in your obituary?


The mental state and abilities of anyone who owns a pit bull should be questioned and investigated.


Does anyone else think is was hilarious that the letter to the editor last about cannabis was written by someone from Potwin?
