Statements comparing Trump, Obama don’t make sense

A letter by Johanna Howard (“Obama officials working against President Trump,” June 2, The Herald) does not make sense to me. She states that Obama still thinks he is president and that Trump has done more in his few months in office than Obama did in eight years. Doesn’t it make better sense to say that Trump is still in the process of undoing instead?

And Hillary Clinton is responsible for billion of dollars missing from the Justice Department? And that she also sold 20 percent of our uranium to the Russians?

I get news from The Herald, the Smithsonian, National Review, Time and the Atlantic. I don’t watch TV Have I missed something? I don’t watch CNN, MSNBC or Fox, and I read books on government policy and current events.

P.S. I’m not a Democrat or a Republican. I vote my conscience.
