To the editor: Look, up within the sky! It’s a chicken, it’s a aircraft — however it certain ain’t the heroic imaginative and prescient of Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Lengthy Seaside), upon whom columnist Anita Chabria lavished reward in her latest article (“What this previously undocumented congressman understands about patriotism that Trump doesn’t,” July 7).
The place’s the true Robert Garcia? On political speak reveals, doing what he does finest: speaking. When requested in regards to the authorities’s harassment of immigrants, he pronounces such perceptive insights as “we now have to do one thing” and “all people ought to oppose it” whereas effecting no motion, celebrating his ardour for the apparent.
As one in every of Garcia’s constituents, I and my Lengthy Seaside small enterprise suffered tremendously underneath his unresponsive mayorship. Like President Trump, Garcia — founding father of the Lengthy Seaside Younger Republicans — switches events seemingly when it’s politically advantageous. And like Trump, his sound and fury signify nothing.
Merry Colvin, Lengthy Seaside
