About Trump's Impeachment Trial!
2/9/2021

Hello, Everyone!

Like many of you, I am curious
as to how the current Trump Impeachment trial by the Senate goes;
but yesterday, I did submit a letter to the editor about it.
For what it's worth, I will share that letter below.
As always, it will be up to the Laramie Boomerang to feature it or not.

Hey, Let us all have a nice Winter as we prepare for Spring.
Like so many of you, I am looking forward to Spring,
but I must admit I am enjoying Winter too.
So far, Laramie has had no measurable snow this year.
In a way, then, our Winter has been pretty much like a Spring.

Nancy and I did get our first COVID vaccine shot last Friday
and are scheduled for our booster shot March 5th.
We wish that all be vaccinated as soon as it can happen for you.
Good Luck!

Love You All!

Gently,

Francis William Bessler and
supportive wife, Nancy Shaw
Laramie, Wyoming

SUBJECT:ON INSURRECTION TRIAL OF TRUMP

Lots of my Republican friends believe that Donald Trump should not be held accountable for what some of his followers did; and accordingly, he should not be held accountable for the recent assault on our national capitol by some of his followers. I disagree.

If I ask someone to follow you with only an intention of intimidating you – and instead that fellow that I ask to stalk you to only scare you kills you for whatever reason – I should be held accountable for your murder – even though I did not intend it.

And that, my Republican friends, is how I view the current Impeachment Trial of our former President, Donald Trump. Allowing a benefit of the doubt argument that Mr. Trump did not intend for some his followers to kill anybody by marching onto capitol grounds, that, in fact, occurred. In my opinion, because Mr. Trump incited his followers to act on behalf of some common belief, he should be held accountable for what some followers did. The Senate should decide what that accountability should be.

That is how I see the current Impeachment Trial in the Senate of Donald J. Trump. Thanks!
