Sun Herald readers weigh in on local and national topics.

So much hate

It’s quite funny to see the haters in action. They show their hate by calling President Trump a war criminal if he takes out Iran infrastructure. Then Trump negotiates a two-week ceasefire and the hate continues because he didn’t follow through with the infrastructure bombing. Calling him TACO just another way of showing their hate. So why don’t the haters just come out and say in these posts that you are going criticize Trump no matter what he does

Space travel hype

Tell me why we are in space circling the moon. I’m all for science, but what is its purpose, satellites? We’ve got enough debris in space already. And I’m sure the souls in heaven are upset from the interruptions to their blissful living.

Funny timing

Fired Attorney General Pam Bondi was set to testify under oak about the Epstein files. Now that she has been fired, she no longer has to. These guys just refuse to testify under oath, because they know lying under oath is a felony.

Just ignore him

I think we’ve reached the point in the Trump presidency where it’s just time to ignore every single thing he says. Because all he has done in Term 2 so far is serve up TACOs.

Big win

Iran still has a leader that hates us. The Strait of Hormuz is still closed to us. Iran is still firing rockets. Tell me again about this amazing ceasefire President Art of the Deal has served up.

Congratulations

There has been a lot of crowing about how the Democrats performed in the election to replace U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. Well, last time I looked, it was a Republican who won. So congratulations on keeping it closer than you thought it would be.

Danger

A question for the right wing: If we were under an imminent threat from Iran, which is still debatable, how big of a threat do you think we are under now? It might not be nuclear but, make no mistake, retribution is coming. At least we have Markwayne Mullin flying by the seat of his pants to protect us.
