Letter by Dr. Jeff Breen of Sun City

How can anyone support Donald Trump after he praises Vladimir Putin as “savvy” and “smart” when he has just invaded a sovereign country?

This is a statement that I would consider as un-American. What would the former POTUS have said if he was the president?

And of course he still rambles on saying the 2020 election was stolen from him. His cronies still state their support.

If Trump runs again, maybe he should grant citizenship to Putin and make him his running mate — Make America great again!

The end doesn’t seem to justify the means for an individual.
