69% : Dorothy Lyons Manhattan: I am writing to congratulate the Right Rev. Mariann Budde for her perfect homily and her courage for standing up to Trump and his hateful, thoroughly un-Christian policies (it does take a woman to do that, doesn't it?).
61% : Then on Jan. 20, when there are so many events honoring Martin Luther King Jr. in NYC, Adams was at the inauguration of Trump, genuflecting to his king.
59% : Trump won in a landslide in all swing states and the popular vote.

29% : In "Consequences for Trump" (editorial, Jan. 23), you say, "Trump needs to get back to reality."
29% : Liberal, woke, socialist politicians and citizens are up in arms about Trump sending troops to the border.

24% : Unfortunately, President Trump has no similar sense of honor or shame.
20% : Trump was totally disrespectful to Kamala Harris regarding her Indian and Jamaican heritage.
19% : Calling Trump supporters Nazis and Hitler lost you the election, yet you and your media are doubling down.
18% : Joie Anderson Howard Beach: Voicer Josh Greenberger wants to drive late-night talk show hosts out of business because of their jokes regarding Trump.
16% : Along with doing away with talk show hosts who ridicule Trump, maybe we should also get rid of TV hosts who have lied to their audiences.
