How ironic that Donald Trump said during his first term that he wouldn’t sign anything to add to the debt by more than a dollar. But by the end, he added $8 trillion. Now, in his second term, he wants to add $4 trillion more. And cut taxes.

I also see in the Review-Journal that Eric Trump will sign a deal worth $1.5 billion for a golf course in Vietnam — the same country in which I spent two years fighting so he can have his golf course. What’s wrong with America first?

And what happened to the $4 billion in taxpayer money used on the now-defunct Foxconn factory in Wisconsin? No jobs to show for it.

It’s not America first, it’s Trump first.

In his May 21 column, Victor Joecks wrote that we should “stop stressing out about climate change.” On June 3, the Review-Journal featured a story about a survey by UNLV which found that heat is a hot topic.

LETTER: Tinkering with mail-in voting
Jerry Sturdivant Las Vegas

I agree it’s reasonable to call for tighter oversight of mail-in ballot counting (June 6 Review-Journal editorial), but such scrutiny must apply across the board, not just in select areas.

LETTER: Another sad Nevada animal cruelty story
Patricia Reid Las Vegas

We are grateful for the passage of “Reba’s Law” recently at the Nevada Legislature, but heavier fines and penalties are necessary.
