New York Times Opinion Page To Publish Letters From Trump Supporters
“ I ’ m thrilled with the progress that President Trump has made in defeating ISIS   cutting taxes for middle - class families and making court appointments  ” Emily Robertson from Austin   Texas   wrote in her letter . “ Thanks to the tax cuts   my husband and I stand to keep a much larger portion of our paychecks .” Not many of Trump ’ s supporters seem to approve of his aggressive   bully - like demeanor   though . I voted against Hillary Clinton more than I voted for  Donald Trump  . That said    President Trump  has exceeded my wildest expectations . Quite a few of the letters admit that  the president  ’ s speeches and tweets are a problem   with one writer calling  him  a “ crude   rude   clueless dude .” Yet there seems to be a consensus among  Trump  supporters that the last year was defined by more than just social media . “ If it takes putting up with Mr . Trump ’ s brash ways to see things get done   that is a deal I ’ m willing to accept  ” Jason Peck of Holtsville   New York   wrote in his letter . “ To be honest   I ’ m not sure he would have accomplished what he has so far without being an unrelenting public bully .” The Times has made an effort in the last year to shed its reputation   deserved or not   for liberal elitism . Giving more voice to  Trump  fans is only the latest effort to restructure  its  opinion page . Bret Stephens   a conservative columnist   was brought aboard even though he has controversial opinions on issues such as climate change and the Middle East .
