Editor,

This is in response to Christine Laing’s letter to the editor calling me a racist for describing Kamala Harris as an African American female “idiot.”

Is she not black? She says she is. Is she not female? And, if you had been following her political career and taken note of all the stupid decisions she has made along with the insane platform she is pushing, what else would you call her?

So tell me, what is racist about my remark?

I hope there are not too many other females — is that OK? — with your one-party mentality.
