To the editor: Characterizing Donald Trump’s incapability to tell apart former L.A. Metropolis Councilmember Nate Holden from former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown as racist appears very unfair to Trump. (“Willie Brown wasn’t on that frightening helicopter ride with Trump. Here’s who was,” Aug. 10)
Possibly it’s nothing greater than when the previous president couldn’t keep in mind the distinction between Social Safety and Medicare, or when he blanked out on the June 28 debate.
Oh, wait, that was President Biden, not Trump, and Trump portrayed it as an indication of disabling senility. My mistake! All outdated white males look alike to me.
(P.S.: I’m an outdated white man.)

To the editor: I just lately celebrated my eightieth birthday. My linear reminiscence isn’t what it was, and I generally misremember the occasions of my previous.
I can perceive Trump remembering an incident from 1990 involving a helicopter that just about crashed, and that there was a Black politician on board. I’m undecided why he remembered the person as a former San Francisco mayor, however I’m positive that he has proof together with “logs, upkeep information, and witnesses” to show that it occurred, as he wrote on-line.
That doesn’t imply that it concerned Brown or has any relevance to his marketing campaign in opposition to the Democratic nominee, Vice President Kamala Harris.
I recall the previous president telling us that he sleeps solely 4 to 5 hours per night time. I feel he ought to attempt to get extra relaxation earlier than working for reelection.
