Letter: Trump does what public wants

Donald Trump convincingly won the Electoral College and the popular vote. Trump communicated his agenda and he is delivering on it in record time. What a concept. A representative republic electing a candidate who actually does what they promised.

He doesn’t have to worry about reelection. Wiser and more focused, he is delivering what America wants. America is tired of the left imposing their values on everyone else.

Musk and Trump collect no salary. Musk can work his efficiency magic on government waste. Every dollar found can help reduce our staggering deficit. And jaw-dropping waste is being uncovered. It’s amusing to see Trump haters divide their attention to smear Elon Musk. And the Musk hate is just starting.

Bold prediction: The media will fight Trump and oppose him on everything. At least they are curious again. Not ignoring Biden’s dementia.

Closer to home, we have a government focused on more taxes. Test scores and enrollment in government schools are dropping, yet they want more money. Lastly, the local street-planning tyrants told the voters to stuff their initiative. They know best. By the way, Old Evergreen Highway doesn’t have sidewalks or bike lanes. Hmmm.
