A few days ago I read a letter from one of Kona’s perpetual whiners, a Frank Dickinson, titled “Give Trump a chance.” Now why would any thinking individual even consider this after the way our president of the last eight years was treated?

Some of the right-wing extremists in Congress (McConnell, as an example), vowed, on the day after Mr. Obama was elected, that they intended to make him a “one-term president,” and continued to show him how they felt about him occupying the office he held instead of trying to work with him for the benefit of the nation. They would not give him a chance.
This guy, Frank Dickinson, tells about being “ashamed” that we (in Hawaii) are viewed as a “Third-World Country” and that we’ve “reached the bottom of the pit.” He claims that Obama was only elected because he was black although his mother was white and his maternal grandfather was a World War II combat veteran.
Mr. Dickinson has written many whining letters over the past several years expressing his dislike of “kanakas, locals, Democrats, liberals, union members,” etc. He sounds very similar to many of the immigrants who have moved to Hawaii from America (that continent 2,300 miles to the northeast of us) in the past few years, and those opinions seem not to have changed from when I was attending high school on Oahu in the late 1950s.
Those immigrants and even their teenage offspring were constantly wishing that Hawaii could be more like back home. In those days, and often even today, I would answer those folks’ wishes by telling them they should go back home.
You, Mr. Dickinson, and your fellow right-wing extremists living here would fit perfectly in the Deep South, i.e. Mississippi, South Carolina or Alabama, and even some Northern states, like Wisconsin and Idaho. All we hear from the likes of you is second-hand drivel repeated from the propaganda wing of the GOP, Fox News.
