Misguided editorial

I am incensed by your Jan. 20 editorial, “Give Trump a chance — we mean it.” I was with you all the way until you referred to “microagressions by Trump supporters as being on a par with hate crimes toward racial and religious minorities, non-English speakers, and women.” You lost it. Completely.

These are not microagressions by schoolyard bullies! How you said it betrayed what (I hope!) you wanted to say.

Rebeca Ramos, Pinecrest
