Dear Editor:
I happened to open your paper of December 1, 2016 (a painting project) and came across a Letter to the Editor titled "Why I voted for Trump". The author, a lady from Mineral Point, argued passionately that she couldn't vote for Hillary because she lied. I wonder what the author thinks now that the Washington Post fact checker has found that since Trump was sworn in, he has lied or made misleading statements over 20,000 times.
Sincerely,
Mel Boldt
