Letter: How has Trump put ‘God’ back in America?

The president's actions while in office, and before, are not godly.

How has Trump put
‘God’ back in America?

Re: “Trump talks about issues that most concern us” (Letter to the editor, Eastbaytimes.com, June 12):

I have been puzzled as to why some people approve of Donald Trump. I thank the letter-writer for providing a piece of the puzzle.

I do agree with her that he talks a lot. However, since he doesn’t accomplish much, I can’t see how he qualifies as a true leader. I guess talking is enough for some folks.

There is not space for me to address all her points so I will just take a couple.

Trump may have talked about balancing the budget, but what he has actually done is to greatly increase the deficit by cutting taxes for corporations and the rich.

And how has he put “God” back in America? In his personal life he grabs women and pays off porn stars, and bilks students at his “university.” As president, he separates children from parents, putting them in miserable detention centers, and denies rights to LGBTQ. That’s not godly.
