I would like to respond to James Frazier and his June 5 “Dangerous Donald” letter.

Hillary Clinton wants to open up the flood gates on the southern border and let everyone in. Donald Trump wants to build a much needed wall to protect the citizens of America.

Clinton wants to bring in thousands of refugees, with terrorists sneaking in with them. Donald wants to stop the influx of refugees until we can figure out who is who.

Clinton wants to continue the destruction of our military and Donald wants to build it up and make it stronger than ever.

Clinton wants to kiss the backsides of our Muslim enemies and Donald wants to destroy them.

Clinton wants to destroy the coal and mining industries and maintain the current 23 percent unemployment rate with 94 million people out of work. Donald wants to create more opportunity for the clean coal industry and bring jobs back to America.

You just don’t like Trump. I don’t particularly like him either, but Donald will put conservative Supreme Court judges in place to protect the Constitution.

Clinton, while Secretary of State, helped cause the Middle East to self destruct. She aided in keeping Iran strong and unafraid of America and she, along with her husband, created a fraudulent Clinton Foundation and made millions off of it.

Donald Trump might be the next Reagan and have good, smart, strong men and women around him to help run this country the right way. Why does 80 percent of the military want Donald Trump? Why are the despots of the world afraid of Donald Trump, and why does the Border Patrol want Donald Trump? Why does the law enforcement want Donald Trump? No, Mr. Frazier, you are wrong on Trump and you might as well get used to saying “President Trump.”
