Saluda broad

Don’t you love it when newspaper readers speak their minds? This thank you note appeared in a local (not this one) newspaper about one of its liberal columnists.

It was too precious to go unnoticed so your pal Saluda Broad is sharing it with you.

I would like to thank Leonard Pitts Jr. for his recent column offering such an informed opinion and judgment on all of us Republican “deplorables.” If we didn’t have Pitts, how would all of us knuckle-dragging, mouth-breathing illiterates ever know just how he and his comrades feel about us?

Unfortunately, Pitts is an example of the many Hillary Clinton sycophants who are everywhere in the media.

I am relieved that Pitts took time to point out that Clinton was merely being honest when she labeled people like me as “deplorables” who are worthless, brainless zombie-like followers of President Donald Trump.

I also appreciate Pitts’ touch of creativity when he suggested that all of us who support Trump live in some delusional “Trump World” – a world in which America is enjoying ever-increasing employment figures, rising incomes, successful global trade deals and a skyrocketing stock market.

I have never been prouder to call myself a Republican — and to call myself a Trump voter and supporter.
