I don’t know the Matthew Brackley of Waldoboro who was sentenced recently to 15 months in prison for acting on incitement to disrupt a fundamental process of our democratic government, but he appears — in the news article I read — a sane man who doesn’t normally engage in self-destructive behavior, and I wonder what he thinks now about his hero, lounging comfortably in Florida, presumably engaging in unpunishable temper tantrums — throwing food — as he did reportedly on a famous Jan. 6, in a White House dining area, when he wasn’t getting his own way.

Can anyone answer my question: Does Mr. Brackley still support this guy?
