Letters to the Editor: Trump's pettiness ‘disrespects and dishonors the American presidency'

To the editor: President Trump's crude letter to Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, threatening tariffs over Brazil's prosecution of its former president (Trump's personal friend), reduces the storied American diplomatic tradition to amateur hour ('Brazil vows retaliatory tariffs against U.S. if Trump follows through on 50% import taxes,' July 10). Overall, Trump's tariff activity seems more tied to his self-image as a 'dealmaker' than to sound economic policy. Similarly, Trump's threat to revoke Rosie O'Donnell's citizenship following a long public spat with her illustrates how he has personalized the presidency in the worst way ('Trump says he's considering 'taking away' Rosie O'Donnell's U.S. citizenship,' July 12). Though elderly in years, Trump seems to be stuck in some adolescent phase, reenacting the intolerance and terror of high school cliques. He uses his office to punish those he dislikes, and especially those who dislike him, in effect turning his pathological rejection/evasion of criticism almost into an arm of the law. Trump's 'personalization,' i.e. making the office all about himself, his biases and petty grievances, disrespects and dishonors the American presidency. D. Keith Naylor, South Pasadena

EU says it still wants US trade deal, will defend interests The European Union said on July 12 it was ready to retaliate to defend its interests if the United States pressed ahead with imposing a 30 per cent tariff on European goods from Aug 1.

Dr Ursula von der Leyen, head of the EU executive which handles trade policy for the 27 member states, said the bloc was ready to keep working towards an agreement before Aug 1, but was willing to stand firm. EU ambassadors will discuss next steps on July 13, before trade ministers meet in Brussels on July 14 for an extraordinary meeting.

'Because of the fact that Rosie O'Donnell is not in the best interests of our Great Country, I am giving serious consideration to taking away her Citizenship,' Mr Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform, invoking a deportation rationale the administration has used in attempts to remove foreign-born protesters from the country. 'She is a Threat to Humanity, and should remain in the wonderful Country of Ireland, if they want her. GOD BLESS AMERICA!' he added.
