Sept. 6 Letters Part 3: Our Readers' Opinions

Best of the worst The convicted felon serving as 'chief excrement officer' ranks with the all-time best of the worst: Adolf Hitler, Josef Stalin, Benito Mussolini, et al. His greatest pleasures in life are screwing others and making them suffer while he destroys everything he touches. After the USS Lincoln had been at sea for nine straight months without a break, conditions on the ship were intolerable: food and supply shortages, mail disruption, plumbing and other equipment failures, causing mental issues among the crew that prompted some to attempt suicide by leaping overboard. One mother of a crewman summed it up with, 'My son signed up to serve his country but his country isn't serving him.' Indeed, Donald Trump dismissed concerns about the men with his usual verbal flatulence, saying, 'The deployment wasn't long enough.' It's interesting that when Trump played 'musical planes' during his recent trip to Turkey, switching planes in a food cart to prevent rumored Iranian assassins from shooting him out of the sky, one of his fellow cart members was a woman by the name of Natalie Harp. Turns out Natalie has been Trump's constant companion 24/7, never leaving his side for the last two years or so, even though she has only had a security clearance for about a year. She writes him gushy love letters that have been published by various sources and it all begs the questions of, where is Melania Trump and what the hell is Natalie doing with the prez all the time?
