Dick Grayson: Democrats will do, say anything to get into office

I don’t understand what has happened to the Democrat Party. Hillary Clinton is trying to get into the highest office by catering to people that come to our country by just walking over the borders. They criticize companies that hire large numbers of people. They tax these big companies and many move to other countries – just look at cities like Detroit; it’s in shambles because automakers can get cheaper labor by going to other countries.

It would help both sides if unions would work with the other side. This current president has run the national debt into figures that may never be brought down even as low as when he took over. Saying no to the pipeline from Canada and not allowing oil drilling because of global warming is nonsense, but just an example of what Democrats will do for votes by pleasing radical environmentalist rather than what is best for the USA.

Dick Grayson, Manteca
