LETTER: Just imagine
It’s a good thing Hillary Clinton is not anywhere near the government these days. Could you imagine if she gave an unelected corporate multi-billionaire access to all of our Social Security numbers and the power to override Congress’ budget? Even worse, this person would probably already have lucrative government contracts and be able to use his new toy (your tax dollars) to make himself even richer while taking contracts away from his competitors. Could you imagine? Sounds like socialism!
She would probably even be irresponsible enough to set up a group chat on an unsecure phone app to plan to bomb terrorists in a foreign country. And probably would include a reporter in the planning. Imagine the potential harm to our national security interests and danger to our military men and women.
Thankfully Hillary isn’t around to appease those famously mean Canadians. Our closest ally? Blah. Who needs maple syrup anyway? Now that eggs are $7 a dozen, we can eat cake. And aren’t we really lucky that we don’t have to hear Kamala Harris laugh?
More locally, imagine if Hillary used $30,000 (plus travel expenses) of federal money intended to reduce blighted properties to pay for a reality TV star to give a short talk. Or, imagine if she set up a secret fund without the knowledge or control of our county controller? Unthinkable.
Good thing we are making America (and Washington County) great again!
