Letter: Trump exaggerates when he speaks, but he has the right ideas to fix America’s problems

It is funny how those who attack his every word are usually the ones who intentionally lie and misrepresent them to gain political advantage.

Whether it is making a multimillion-dollar real estate deal or running for president, Donald Trump has always been a pitchman. That means he does not outright intentionally lie, but he always exaggerates. That will never change, it is in his DNA, and I believe that those who follow him understand.

It is funny how those who attack his every word are usually the ones who intentionally lie and misrepresent them to gain political advantage. The greatest misunderstandings revolve around his economic policies that lower taxes for all, decrease regulations, increases energy supply and uses tariffs to encourage fair trade. Keynesian economists say his policies will lead to a loss of revenues that will lead to increased deficits in the short term.



They are living only in the moment while Trump is living in the future where the benefits of the policies will lower costs, grow the economy which will dramatically increase tax revenue. History is on the side of Trump. Stephen Smith, Eagle Rock.
