In response to Don Wicburgs letter, Imagine a U.S. overrun by hateful leftists (Aug. 23): Imagine a country where the president pushes conspiracy theories rather than proven medical advice.

Imagine a country where people with guns show up at a candlelight vigil. Imagine a country where the current administration has had over 400 people quit because they refuse to be complicit in the destruction of democracy.

Imagine a country where foreign countries are invited to spread lies to tip an election. Imagine a country where the president endorses voter suppression by slowing the mail. Imagine that a once superpower is now pitied by third-world countries and laughed at by its allies.

Sadly, one does not have to imagine any of these things. They are happening before our eyes and being cheered on, Wicburg writes by the alt-right.

Think that over as you decide whether to vote, and for whom to vote this November, he said.
