Leonard Pitts is another of the liberal cry babies who are totally unable to deal with the reality that Hillary Clinton, thankfully, will not be the first female president (“Time to take OUR country back,” Nov. 16). Like so many others, he desperately needs either a safe zone or a sanctuary city to protect him from the reality that Donald Trump actually won the election.

While I understand very well the reservations about Trump, when one contrasts the two candidates, it is astounding that anyone could vote for Hillary Clinton.
