In response to “Responsible opposition” published on Sept. 20.
I referred to Trump’s political views as “extremist” in my short letter to The Malibu Times (Sept. 13 ). Rueben Gordon (Sept. 20) considered the use of this word to be a personal attack on Trump and responded with a lengthy explosion of invective.
Among other things, Gordon accused Democrats of “deliberate misinterpretations and lies,” as well as mocking Mrs. Trump’s accent and insulting his daughter, using a word I have never seen before in the respectable media.
Gordon claims that “Democrats … treat all disagreements as vicious personal attacks.” The camel doesn’t see his own hump.
