Cummings letter: Trump is not Patton

Regarding Duane Coates’ letter comparing Trump to Patton. It’s probably safe to assume the letter was submitted prior to Gen. Trump naming his Cabinet, proving how much of a “man of the people” he truly is. I’m sure the chosen will be quick to reveal their military service records along with their tax returns while at the same time pressuring Gen. Trump to do the same.

By the way, there are three “n’s” in the word “cannon.”

John Cummings, Nampa
