Re: “Fact Check: Truth vs exaggeration in GOP presidential debate,” Aug. 7 news story.
Fox’s Megyn Kelly was anything but “Fair & Balanced” when it came to throwing difficult questions at Donald Trump. The Donald did not waver, although it was very apparent that Kelly had it out for him from the beginning.
Trump is Trump, and, in my opinion, he will never be trumped. A Trump-Carly Fiorina team would place two CEOs at the helm of this nation, steering it to prosperity and respect on the world stage.

This letter was published in the Aug. 8 edition.I’m watching the GOP debate and all the nominees are stating they would abolish Obamacare, yet none of them has outlined a plan to replace it. Can we get a comprehensive plan from any of them?

The start of the presidential debates is like watching “The Woody Woodpecker Show” or the start of “Looney Tunes.” You have crazy mad Donald Duck Trump leading the Republicans, and boring Elmer Fudd Hillary Clinton leading the Democrats.
It truly shows what politics has become: a spectacle that Americans and the world laughs at while these bozos toss out barbs for public consumption.
