Sound Off: June 26, 2026

Sun Herald readers weigh in on local and national topics.

World Cup

Why do Democrats hate America so much that their liberal media told the visitors to beware of the U.S.? Turns out, America is much better than anyone imagined. Fans from around the world are lovin’ them some America. I love me some America too, and I’m proud. Are you?

Incorrect information

I have been a Democrat for over 50 years I do not want to abolish ICE, defund law enforcement, pack the Supreme Court, get rid of our voting system, eliminate voter ID, stop deportation of illegals or give free government handouts to anyone, including illegals. What I do want is the Constitution to be the law of the land and everyone to follow it.

Trump’s projects

President Trump’s fans seem to think people complaining about Trump’s renovation projects are doing so because they hate Trump. The projects are hideous and damaging our national monuments, plus costing taxpayers enormous amounts of money.

Not good

Cookie-cutter modernization is bad for our health.

America first?

We are sending aid to Venezuela after their earthquake, but no help for us after massive flooding. What happened to America first and less taking care of the world?

Gas prices

President Trump is looking into gas gouging by gas stations. That’s like arresting the people selling drugs on the corner instead of the dealer. Also, weren’t high gas prices caused by President Biden?

Too much MAGA

Today’s Sound Off posts read like a marathon of MAGA supporters trying to defend the chaos we are enduring. Nobody is buying what you are selling. Nobody is wishing that the country fails. We just want a normal government run by competent, patriotic, morally sound statesmen.
