LETTER: I’m not holding my breath

Rick Stiebel should look at a few more ‘bad apples,’ says letter-writer

Re: Trump’s train wreck express (Rickter Scale, May 17)

It makes one feel downright “at home” to see the News Mirror give Rick Stiebel prime editorial space to bash President Trump, and by inference, our American neighbours who voted for him.

I wonder if that would have been so if Hillary Clinton had been elected?

And I think that the next time “bad apples” are to be admonished, maybe Rick could tackle a dictator like Nicolas Maduro of Venezuela where the people are rioting in the streets and don’t even have toilet paper? Or how about Kim Jong-un of North Korea where millions are starving and he is striving to place atomic weapons on intercontinental missiles?

Or how about right here at home where our “selfie king” prime minister doesn’t have the guts to fire his National Defense minister for embellishing his war record in Afghanistan?

I’m not holding my breath.
