To the editor: Robin Abcarian submits another vituperative column in opposition to President Trump. It’s maybe cathartic for her however clearly not efficient. He gained.
Her assaults can solely proceed to create the identical acrimony our nation has endured since Trump was first elected in 2016. However are we nonetheless listening?
A wiser tactic could be for her to acknowledge and settle for defeat and attempt to conceptualize the why.

To the editor: After studying Abcarian’s column on the cruelty of Trump’s inauguration, I as soon as once more ask myself why it’s so tough for respectable folks to consider what they see.
Listed below are feedback to ponder from one other time: He can’t actually imply what he says. Good folks is not going to let this occur. We have to go together with him as a result of it can all blow over quickly. Our neighbors will defend us. When different nations see what is going on, they gained’t let this occur.
An notorious chief, dropped at energy via democratic means within the Thirties, believed inner enemies needed to be eradicated. He additionally believed in ethical purification, which took the type of guide banning and stifling the press.
Historical past typically gives us with solutions to our questions. At Trump’s inauguration rally on Monday, did Elon Musk actually imply to offer the Nazi salute? No matter his personal response to this query, we are able to ask ourselves: What did we see?
