Marc Thiessen in his recent column, “Trump is my president and he will soon be yours, too” (Star-Advertiser, Nov. 8), complained that he was “disgusted” by the leftists’ cry of “not my president.” This is puzzling considering he just helped to elect Donald Trump, who to this day has not recognized Joe Biden as our president.
With his first column covering Trump, Thiessen has not followed his own vow to “treat [Mr. Trump] fairly by calling balls and strikes,” or he would have mentioned Trump’s election-denying in the column. The hypocrisy is clear.
