To the editor: If, as Republican strategist Scott Jennings writes, former President Trump is in a robust place to win regardless of his debate efficiency, then there’s something fallacious with our nation.
Trump, who has by no means gained the favored vote, is a beneficiary of the unfair, archaic electoral faculty. In his debate with Vice President Kamala Harris, he defended the violent mob that attacked the U.S. Capitol, he stated the 2020 election was stolen from him, he savaged folks he appointed to his administration however now oppose him, and he reiterated the made-up story about Haitian migrants consuming their neighbors’ pets.
Within the debate, he misplaced management, affirming his lack of a grasp on actuality.
Jennings acknowledged that Trump misplaced the talk. He additionally described Trump’s conference speech as disappointing. He has misplaced contact with actuality and doesn’t have respect for this nation.
If Trump wins, America loses.

To the editor: Jennings stated the talk moderators ignored Harris’ “whoppers.” The whoppers she instructed (possibly two?) weren’t something that will lead her supporters to commit acts of violence.
Did Jennings see the identical debate I did? Immigrants consuming pets, infants being killed after they’re born — correcting these lies was a public service by the moderators.
There was one individual on the stage who was secure, clever and competent sufficient to be the chief of our nation. The opposite was racist, narcissistic and simply plain creepy together with his bizarre conspiracy theories.
Trump has no enterprise being wherever close to the Oval Workplace. Jennings ought to cease being such an irresponsible shill for him.

It’s superb they solely fact-checked a number of of his lies.
