To the editor:

Well, the third presidential debate is finally history and the only thing I can give Donald J. Trump is the fact that he showed up for all three debates. It started out a little shaky though when Hillary Clinton got pneumonia at a most inconvenient time but she's not the first person to ever have pneumonia and she won't be the last. Donald Trump really pounced on her, saying she couldn't physically handle the job but after some good doctoring and a little rest, she was able to take on Donald J. Trump and did she ever.

Donald Trump, the man that destroyed the Republican Party by ridiculing 16 other candidates in the Republican primary and a lot of them, not on facts but insults. I blame the Republican Party itself and Reince Preibus, the Republican National Chair for not checking out Donald Trump's past record.

One of the worst things being Donald going bankrupt so many times. For the longest time, it stated he went bankrupt four times until the first debate and Hillary challenged him that he went bankrupt six times, which he didn't deny. He even bragged about it.

I can easy see why he doesn't want to show his federal income tax returns. Up to this time, the presidential candidates always showed their federal income tax returns. Anyone, whether running for president or not, should be proud of the fact that they can pay federal income tax, which first means you've got a job and you're making money, which is essential if you're going to work your way up the ladder and establish the fact that you did it the American way. If the IRS asks for your returns, to see if you are cheating or not, that you follow through like they have done on many, many people like they even did on me. Everything checked out O.K.

So, it pretty well proves Donald can't handle money and he definitely degrades women. He was actually caught bragging on tape getting off a bus with Billy Bush that happened quite a number of years ago. Everybody then knew just how bad it was. Now, a number of the women have come forward and told their stories and Donald Trump said he was going to sue the newspaper but it's his own words that are convicting him.
