Dear Editor:
As November 3 approaches, the invective grows more outrageous. A widely circulated Facebook blog charged that Trump supporters are “traitors” because they support a candidate who once said “I like Putin and Putin likes me.” It makes no difference to the author whether Donald Trump actually harmed or helped Ukrainians, or whether he hindered or facilitated Vladimir Putin’s designs.
So here are the hard facts: Mr. Trump’s rhetoric concerning Mr. Putin and Ukraine is 100 percent contrary to his actions. He has frustrated every Putin move and been tougher on Russia than any president since Ronald Reagan, and far more supportive of Ukraine with military and economic measures than Obama/Biden.
