To the editor: I felt a little sorry for the columnist Jonah Goldberg after reading her article (“The economic philosophy of President Trump that only a leftist could love”, “ April 29). In his despair to separate his conservative republican party from President Trump, he in fact tried to link Trump's economic policies to the Democrats! Yes, Trump, the man who granted a reduction in massive tax to societies, whose prices increase the cost of living – which weighs on low and average income families – and whose administration attacks programs for the poor. Beautiful test, Goldberg.

To the editor: Goldberg has linked to nodes blaming the liberals for Trump's policies. Even in democratic administrations, the United States has remained the most capitalist country on the planet. And are not mistaken, the problems we have today with regard to the disparity of income and the cost of housing are the result of frantic free market capitalism. The sky helps us, we again need Franklin D. Roosevelt!

To the publisher: Congratulations to Goldberg. In the midst of Trump's economic schemes, social chaos and election numbers, he has somehow found a way to attack the left for his actions. Supporting himself under his Mont Rushmore of conservative and free economists, he forgets that to avoid statistical analysis due to the “knowledge problem” normally led Republicans to promote those at the top of established and often tired economies – no necessary statistics. On his behalf, however, I would like to remind him how modern democrats have drowned in these same free market approaches.

To the editor: Goldberg blaming the “leftists” for Trump's economic philosophy, it's a bit like Trump blaming the former Biden president for the fall of the stock market.
