TRUMP: He’s no Renaissance man

| November 13, 2024 1:00 AM

Oh boy. The Nov. 8 Coeur d’Alene Press published some eye opening post election stuff.

First, George Silva’s letter to the editor. “I saw this election as the 'sole' of America versus evil.” Words and meaning matter Mr. Silva. That sentence is truly ironic.  

Second, Brent Regan gaslighting truth and reality in his Opinion column. Elwood P. Dowd’s quote from the play Harvey comes to mind, “well, I’ve wrestled with reality for 35 years, doctor, and I’m happy to state I finally won out over it.” Regan’s conclusion about Trump’s election win, “we are potentially at the threshold of a golden age.” Donald Trump as the Renaissance man? (That might be an oxymoron.) Those who worked for him think not Mr. Regan.
