Dear Editor

Re: He’s no joke for the U.S. or Canada, Burnaby NOW, June 8.

Donald Trump may, at times, come across as a bit of a “joker,” but at least it can be said that he is a self-made joker!

The Clinton woman, on the other hand, has financed her campaign from (other than her and her husband’s very questionable charities) by giving “undisclosed” speeches to corporate bankers, stock market elites, and other hustlers, assuring them that the ‘status quo’ will continue – at several thousand dollars per hour!

The reason that Mr. Trump is succeeding thus far is because he refuses to play the “game” as it has been played by both parties, for years. Eight years of Obama tricks has convinced Americans that there is a need for real change.

Canadians should also realize that there are increasing numbers of Mexicans and others from points south, recently showing up in this land in anticipation of a Trump presidency. 

To suggest that anyone who disagrees with editorials such as yours are reptilian for agreeing (to some extent, with some of Trump’s policies) are apparently not aware that our laws and ideals are based on our Judeo-Christian values. 

That said, Mr. Trump would not have been my first choice, but Mrs. Clinton would have been the absolute last choice of this vast right-wing conspiracist.
