Re “With bold leadership, San Diego can shape its future” (July 16): Thank goodness for the dreamers, innovators and progressives! John Eger has inspirational ideas. Life was not intended to be lived under the thought police and oppressors. What a wonderful idea he has, to form cross-border economic zones that work together, trade together and develop together in order to form greater progress, better living conditions and growth. San Diego leaders should have the freedom to work directly with the Mexican government to achieve these goals, and improve infrastructure along the border, etc.
Donald Trump is no inspirational leader. Bluntly, he is a meanie: threat after threat, California is bad, I’ll send the Marines, I’ll withdraw education funds, I’ll withdraw federal funds for health care, and loads and loads of blabber undermining our state.
This is not how America flies — we fly the friendly skies of freedom! Here’s to a San Diego-Tijuana economic, cultural and educational development zone! Now there is a great idea, John Eger!
