“I am angry and disturbed at Donald Trump’s comments about women because all people – men and women, the old and the young need to be treated respectfully and supported. Think of a political campaign where that was the standard.”

Great thoughts.
Mr. Jon Katz has made other great comments concerning Mr. Trump’s fitness for the office he seeks in previous issues of Bedlam Farm Journal. I highly recommend them to readers. Inf fact, I highly recommend readers to receive Bedlam Farm Journal daily. Just go to the sight and enter your email address. It’s free and far better reading than what the national press tries to shove down our throats.
