Letter: Many Trump supporters don’t deserve sympathy

I consider myself to be a compassionate person, but I am sick and tired of the whining coming from those who voted for our president. These people were treated to a four-year dress rehearsal of things to come and still chose to vote for this man — a pathological liar who made over 30,000 documented false or misleading statements during his first term.

So, how do you like your grocery prices now? How about your neighbors being detained, deported, or disappeared? How about those Epstein files?

You say you “didn’t vote for that,” but that’s exactly what you voted for. Some might think that because they are military, a farmer, or someone with special needs, they deserve more than anyone else or should be exempt from the misery. No. Elections have consequences, and their vote determined all of this suffering.

Their whines are falling on deaf ears.
