To the Editor:
Not withstanding my personal political views, I was aghast on July 20 as I approached the beach. (It was one of the hottest days on record with the humidity nearly 100 percent.) All I wanted was an escape to the beach and to enjoy the cool ocean.
I headed toward the LBTBP lifeguard stand, pleasantly surprised the beach was not as crowded as I had envisioned. However, as I neared the stand I couldn’t help but see a large banner on a pole dug into the sand: “TRUMP 2020 KEEP AMERICA GREAT!”
