Letters: Proud of Trump? Too soon to say

Many factors go into deciding who to vote for: Where does “proud” stack up against a person’s accomplishments, agenda, charisma, values, incisiveness, intelligence, candor and comparison to the other candidate?

Not so high, but somewhere in there, so yes, I am proud of my vote for President Trump when all of those factors are considered. Four weeks into his presidency, I am pleased with the accomplishments of President Trump despite the total opposition of Democrats.

Eight years ago, I was proud America elected a black man as president, a skilled and charismatic orator who lacked any serious accomplishments and for whom I did not vote. Eight years later, I am not proud of the regression of America under former President Obama.

Withhold judgment, America, at least for four years, before deciding your pride or lack thereof in President Trump.
