To the editor: The notion that California would possibly think about electing Republican Mayor Kevin Faulconer of San Diego as our subsequent governor went up in smoke when columnist George Skelton quoted him as saying, “I voted for the president. I believed he was going to be the perfect for the financial system.”
I can forgive somebody who wished to provide Donald Trump one likelihood and voted for him in 2016. However how, after 4 years of the worst and most corrupt administration within the historical past of this nation, may an elected official in California admit to voting for this catastrophe?
“Social gathering over nation” doesn’t strike me as an efficient marketing campaign slogan.

To the editor: I discover it attention-grabbing when politicians like Faulconer criticize their would-be opponents and ignore their very own celebration’s incompetence.
Governors in all 50 states are pressured to cope with the pandemic largely due to poorly coordinated motion on the federal degree. Some governors have achieved nothing, some might have overreached.
Faulconer condemning Gov. Gavin Newsom’s dealing with of the pandemic as “out of contact with on a regular basis Californians” is solely a partisan assault with out him additionally charging Trump and his administration with ineptitude and likewise being “out of contact” with nearly all of People.

To the editor: The Democrats nationally ran in opposition to President Herbert Hoover for nearly 50 years.
The solutions to 2 questions, “did you vote for from Trump,” and “did he lose the election,” may preclude a statewide win in California for any Republican for the subsequent a number of many years.
Dream on certainly, Mayor Faulconer.
