To the Editor:
Today the Scoop, Senator Grassley’s email to his constituents, had the headline “America Stands with the People of Ukraine,” describing Putin as “inhumane to benefit his own ego.
He has no respect for agreements Russia signed to respect the sovereignty of Ukraine. He’s killing innocent people like Stalin did in the1930s.”
Not too surprising as Stalin is the leader that Putin most admires. Putin, a former KGB [the Soviet secret police] operative has Stalin’s vision of Russia controlling nearby independent countries that were part of or controlled by the old Soviet Union.
My response to the Scoop is this, “Hey Chuck, shouldn’t you check with the leader of the Republican party who has proclaimed Putin, a genius and his move into the Ukraine, ‘very savvy’ before you support the people of the Ukraine.
Trump has always looked up to Putin–but the only way Trump at 6 foot 3 inches can look up to Putin at 5 foot 7 inches is on his knees.
And America should never get down on her knees to a tyrant. Think about it.
I would remind Senator Grassley of his servile acceptance of Trump at the October, 2021 rally.
Both Grassley and Reynolds embraced Trump on his return to Iowa as he repeated his false claims of voter fraud and a stolen election.
On the invasion of Ukraine, Trump told Fox News “it all happened because of a rigged election.”

Mary Kay Gepner should get over her Trump phobia and come to today’s world. The honorable Chuck Grassley has served Iowa and our country very well and deserves better than Mary Kay gives him in her letter. Lives of innocent people are being lost. Trump has condemned Putin’s actions None of this would have happened if Trump were in office. The pipeline between Germany and Russia would not have happened . The money from the sale of oil would not be funding Russia’s aggression . And the U SA would not be importing oil. We would be energy independent. There would be lower fuel prices. The price of fuel directly impacts every segment of our lives. Every thing goes up food , building supplies, transportation, energy prices , oil is used in manufacturing almost everything. So anyone who still believes in Biden’s policies should go live with him in la la land. I would advise MaryKay to read more current events listen to news and get her head out if Biden’s uh hum and stop harping on republicans. Most Americans know we had life a lot better with Trump in office. He may have hurt your feelings with bluster and bravado but at least he was looking out for us and not the Chinese. But then he wasn’t in anyone’s debt or pocket. Stop drinking the Kool aid and look realistically at the world situation Mary Kay.
