Claims made in letter last week were ‘ridiculous’ and ‘incorrect’

Editor:

I see Jon Matuszczak had another letter in last week’s paper in which he again attempts to justify the outrageous excesses of the Trump administration by using innuendo, ridiculous statements, and incorrect facts. For me, his hyperbole does nothing but further erode his credibility. 

As just two examples, he asks how “military men in dresses can inspire and lead warriors into battle”. What does that even mean? What is the basis for such a silly statement? He goes on to make the specious claim that democrats will make the “killing of one’s unborn child for any reason up until birth a Constitutional right.” Not only is the statement an absolute fabrication but is also repugnant. I would challenge him to cite one example of such a thing having even been suggested.
