How Donald Trump brought colour, religion and gender to the US presidential election
It’s hilarious to see how delusional Nick Smith is (MetroTalk, Thu) in his claims that Kamala Harris was the one who brought colour, religion and gender into the US presidential election.
Those of us with a greater attention span than a goldfish have watched Donald Trump and his party regularly stand side by side with religious groups.
And they have made colour and gender their primary targets, as they threaten to remove anyone they deem ‘illegal’, which was something Trump couldn’t define when challenged.
His party has made clear its stance on women as it continues to make it more difficult for them to get abortions, with some even joking about removing women’s right to vote.
It’s extremely telling of Nick’s lack of character that he still blindly praises Trump and refers to Kamala as ‘the Harris woman’ which, I suppose, also tells us his stance on women.
Like most of those with a brain, I will be wishing all the best to those who will have to put up with the gloating of the uneducated masses and the bigots who will feel more empowered to show their true selves. Matt, Birmingham

Nick Smith says Harris voters vote by ‘colour, religion and gender, not ability’.
I’d say that was truer of Trump voters, but when white Christian men do it, it’s never considered to be identity politics. Nick Xylas, Bristol
Will Lammy’s Trump comments come back to haunt?
David Lammy’s days as foreign secretary may be numbered because of his verbal attack on Trump in 2018, calling him a ‘woman-hating, neo-Nazi-sympathising sociopath’ who was a ‘profound threat to the international order’.
Trump never forgets things like this and will let Sir Keir Starmer know in no uncertain terms. Carlos, Lancashire
