Happy to do as Trump says | Letter

President Trump is saying at his rallies to “Just close your eyes and pretend that I’m on the ballot.” I think everyone should do as he says.

Look at where the U.S. stands with an endless war, high gas and grocery prices, heating oil through the roof and a president whose family has generated billions of dollars in income and profits from various business ventures since he returned to the White House.

When one goes to vote, just imagine that every Republican is Trump. Great idea.
