LETTER: The transportation bureaucracy

I am pleading with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis to announce his run for the presidency as soon as possible. I am also asking the rest of the GOP field to back away and unite behind this candidate. I say this as a former voter for Donald Trump. Regardless of the chaos that Mr. Trump causes, and despite his relatively strong economic policies, it is time for generational change.

A united party behind a strong candidate such as Gov. DeSantis will knock Mr. Trump out before his loyal base gets him through the primaries. Although I am well into my 60s and a fierce independent, I believe it is time to move away from the octogenarians running the country. Sorry, everybody, but it is time for the upcoming generations to reset the direction of our country.

Calvin Brown St. Andrews, Manitoba

I’m a Canadian who, like many others, has thoroughly enjoyed past visits to your state. For months, however, we have endured your president’s insults, his unprovoked trade war and his threats to Canada’s sovereignty.
