Voters should keep Trump from re-election

Thomas Sorenson of Sultan wrote a sincere and honest letter recently. Please look it up if you haven’t read it yet.

I was raised totally Republican until my late husband and I came to Marysville to teach in 1967. We immediately said goodbye to the Republican Party. I have written oodles of letters to the editor regarding to vote yes for the kids of the Marysville School District.

Sorenson now has motivated me to write about Trump. Hends his letter with this sentence: “We all must do whatever we legally can to stop the anti-democratic MAGA movement from once again assuming power in Washingon, D.C.”

My wonderful dad would say: Think about it, but not too long. My parents and all of my dad’s siblings are in Heaven and they would all be horrified with this Trump guy. Stop a repeat of Trump’s presidency!
