I had to laugh at the letter “Liberals demonstrate hypocrisy,” published April 19 in The Columbian. Focusing on the past antics of some prominent Democrats obfuscates or ignores the real issue with President Trump’s activity. That is, whether or not the payment of $130,000 amounted to an illegal campaign contribution. No one, outside the thrill-seeking populace and his own family, really cares who Trump is schtupping.
