Letter: We would be lucky to get Trump back

By Judith Anderson, Vancouver

Donald Trump did two great things. He closed the Southern border to illegal immigrants and stopped the “forever wars” Washington, D.C., mentality. The Biden administration opened the border and provided support to those 6 million to 8 million who accepted the invitation. President Joe Biden has at least four potential wars he is walking into as if war is the only option.

We would be lucky to get Trump back in 2025. He would close the border, round up the illegals and send them back to take their turn and come in legally. He would resume his style of resolving conflict with potential enemies by getting to know them as he did with Putin and North Korea. He would employ tariffs and deal-making tactically to restore a healthy respect for the USA from our enemies.
