LETTER TO THE EDITOR:

Sadly, we’re now a laughingstock

We are supposed to laugh at clowns and stand-up comedians. But all citizens of the United States should be sad when the leader of the most powerful country, with the best economy and most effective military, has made this country look like a clown act on the world stage.

Amazing as it seems, many Americans believe the president has “made America great again” and are doing a great job leading the Western world. It’s a wonder that millions of people are still strong supporters of the most narcissistic person ever to be given so much power.

When the leaders of the free countries have distanced themselves and have lost respect for our leader, it is time to be serious, because it isn’t funny. Comedians have voters to thank for giving them their greatest source for jokes, skits and stand-up material. But this is not funny, it is sad.
