Thanks to Jonathan Klate (“Witch hunts then and now,” Dec. 27) for pointing out the absurdity-beyond-irony that the ultimate representative of the plutocratic power structure should cry out that he is the victim of the sort of “witch hunt” whose 1 million victims over the millennia have overwhelming been representative of those powerless masses who have suffered under the brutality of the likes of him.
Interestingly, however, is that the gentleman writer failed to sufficiently emphasize and bring front and center the most obvious and supremely dastardly hypocrisy — that the victims of the “witch hunt” over the millennia have been universally women — such as those great and not so great who have been routinely abused and maligned under this little emotionally needy, sorrily complaining, poor excuse for a president, and even poorer excuse for “a man.”
