I take great offense at the arrogance of Richard Strickland’s letter regarding the elections (Thursday Review-Journal). Who died and made him the overlord over President Donald Trump’s supporters? They owe Mr. Strickland — or, as he couches his demand, “the people of the United States” — an explanation? Really? Mr. Trump doesn’t have the right to declare his position, and his supporters must answer to Mr. Strickland? Are not freedom of speech and assembly still in the Constitution?

No, Trump supporters do not have to answer to Mr. Strickland or his ilk. This is still a free country and people have the right to support whomever they chose.

Trump officials claim they’re deporting the “worst of the worst.” If so, why not prove it? Bring them before judges and juries.

Trump thinks winning the election means doing whatever he wants. He and the GOP are purposely exacerbating this, like he always does.

Every time I read an article about Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford, it’s about him suing the Trump administration.

Will the United States fall into a totalitarian government that exerts total control, or be a representative democracy that listens to the voices of “we, the people”?
