OK, take away my affordable health insurance, build a wall instead of repairing our infrastructure and tank my retirement investments with your trade war. But please, President Donald Trump, don’t take way my “Saturday Night Live.”

I have watched it from its beginning years. I brought up my son watching it. It has parodied every president during its lifetime — granted, not with the (deserved) high-level of energy and sophistication with which it goes after Mr. Trump.

If you are offended by “SNL’s” portrayal of Mr. Trump and his staff, don’t watch it. It’s not news, fake or otherwise. It’s award-winning entertainment.

Could Mr Joecks explain how many split-second decisions had to be made by the shooters between shots three and four, or five and six, or six and seven, or seven and eight, or eight and nine?

Elections determine who governs. They do not eliminate the need for limits on executive power.
