To the editor: It’s troublesome to say which of President Trump’s actions within the final month has been probably the most offensive. Permitting Elon Musk entry to residents’ personal info was stunning, however the saddest and most offensive deed of all must be his assertion that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky started the war with Russia when the whole world knows otherwise.
For 3 years, we’ve been following the tragic losses of life and property in Ukraine, praying that the carnage and Russian aggression would cease.
Ukraine is a rustic that dared to behave independently, endeavoring to enter into Western alliances — a purpose that introduced with it untold sacrifice and tragedy. That Trump would fabricate a unique narrative, even going to this point to say that Zelensky’s approval ranking was at 4% (when in actuality it’s above 50%, larger than Trump’s), is an insult to the intelligence of Individuals in addition to the watchful allies of Ukraine in Europe.

To the editor: Trump blaming the beginning of the Ukrainian-Russian conflict on Zelensky is quite a bit like blaming slaves for slavery or possibly saying rape victims should be higher behaved.
It’s so silly that it’s past laughable, and it demonstrates for the umpteenth time that the person within the White Home will say absolutely anything (aside from “I’m sorry” or “I used to be mistaken”).
Much more weird? There are individuals so unsophisticated that they’ll imagine something that comes out of the mouth of a pathological liar.
Subsequent, Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin will blame the conflict on DEI.

To the editor: We’re lacking what stands out as the vital causal aspect of Trump’s animosity towards Ukraine — Zelensky’s refusal in 2019 to dig up filth on Hunter Biden.
That, together with Trump’s well-documented thirst for revenge towards any private slight or refusal to do his bidding, is fully enough to elucidate why he’s now desirous to see Ukraine disappear down the maw of the Russian bear.
Trump’s bromance with fellow autocrat Putin is mere icing on the cake.
