Letters: Paper will publish positive Trump stories when there are some

Mr. Dickinson criticizes the East Bay Times for never publishing anything positive about the current president. I have no doubt the East Bay Times will publish such a story if and when such a situation occurs. The Times did report on the president's efforts in getting to a ceasefire and hostage release regarding the war in Israel and Gaza. Other than that, I honestly can't point to anything positive the president has done, especially given all his campaign promises of lowering prices and only deporting the "worst of the worst."
