Impeachment can be a lesson to youth

Dear Editor,

When I was listening to the impeachment of Donald J. Trump, something just crossed my mind: I hope that every American university,  college and high school student in the United States had an assembly in the auditorium to watch it on a big screen.

I know this will live in part of our lives forever.

Some day young people will be the future leaders of our country.

This is history that doesn’t need to be repeated and lessons could and should be learned at a young age to prevent it from reoccurring.

Sanford Rouse,

Brandon

Dear Editor, In his Aug. 28, 2024, Mountain Times letter “Response to Republican choice,” Mr. George de Luna states rather oddly that “Most of his [Trump’s] ‘lies’ are exaggerations but are in the same direction of the truth.”  Actual journalists disagree.  In their Jan. 24, 2021, Washington Post article “Trump’s false or misleading claims total…
