Letters to the Editor: Re: “Pasadena Ph.D. Candidate Files Suit Against Trump Regarding DACA” (Sept. 21 issue)
Amnesty International, of which I am a member, sent me a bumper sticker which now graces my car. It reads: “Human rights have no borders.”
Our president was born into privilege. He has never suffered deprivation, and his lack of compassion for anyone other than Anglo-Americans is amply proven.
How absurd, therefore, that in one of his frequent delusional rantings he compared himself to Abraham Lincoln!
Every common pedestrian knows that besides Lincoln’s high Intelligent Quotient, his even higher Emotional Quotient is what made him a great man. Yes, Lincoln’s empathy for those who suffer has never been bested by any of our presidents.
Oh, how I wish Trump were indeed like Lincoln! Then those “dreamers” would have a friend in our president.
