Fear: It’s curious what frightens some people

Re: “Trump’s tax record refusal is frightening,” (TNT letter, 7/22).

Coronavirus is created and spread by China, kills hundreds of thousands of people worldwide. Freedom is lost. People are forced to wear masks or stay home. Are you troubled?

Groups comprised of rioters, thieves and murderers run rampant in America’s cities. Young children are killed in the crossfire. Are you uneasy?

The brave people of law enforcement who risk their lives every day to keep us safe from rioters, thieves and murderers are being pelted with rocks, bricks, frozen water bottles – blinded, seriously injured, even killed. If you ever need help, who will be left to call? Are you worried?

Democrat Joe Biden suffers from a progressive worsening state of memory loss. But America needs a president who can recognize what is going on in his country at all times. Are you nervous?

If none of the above frightens you more than President Trump’s unreleased tax returns,then I have something to tell you that is really terrifying:

Boo!
