Writer should try more specifics, not generalizations in criticizing Harris
Editor:
As a former high school history teacher, I would have given Ms. Mager’s Letter to the Editor of Aug. 1, an “Incomplete” for two reasons.
First, she criticized VP Harris with generalizations. Teachers always ask their students to “be specific.” She was not.
Secondly, how is it possible to write about the 2024 Presidential Election and mention only one candidate. Perhaps she declined to include Trump because there is so little to praise as a President, and so much failure as a person.
On July 31, Mr. Fine of Brockport wrote an excellent Letter to the Editor that was specific, persuasive, and included detail on Trump’s criminal situation.
Perhaps Ms. Mager should write another letter to the Hub. This time using Mr. Fine’s letter as an example, she could discuss in detail Trump’s presidency, and explain how he came to be charged as criminal in New York, Washington DC, Atlanta and Florida.
