02-18-2026 Angry Reader. Part One

You’re a fucking moron. Republican scum. Piece of shit traitor. Keep sucking trumps dick while he plunges the country to record lows. Fucking Nazi sympathizer. Go take a long walk off a short pier you disgusting excuse for a human! Educate yourself on what he’s done this term and last term. The only promise he’s kept is to be a dictator, and the only people who are benefiting from his policies are his rich buddies. He’s pissing on the working class and telling them it’s rain. Fuck you, be a better person. There’s reasons why statistically the entire country does better under democrats than republicans, it’s in black and white. The numbers don’t lie.

Timothy Doris


Victor Davis Hanson Responds:

Dear Timothy Doris,

Congratulations on an Angry Reader perfect score of 10. You included every component necessary in your obscene letter to achieve such a distinction. Was this a real or serious letter or just a comic caricature of sick doggerel?

1) Puerile Profanity. Plenty of empty swear words, adolescent excrement profanity, obscene sexual terms, and monotonous F-bombs—six in fact in 11 sentences.

2) No evidence. You simply rant and do not cite any particular thing I wrote or said that prompted your embarrassing meltdown. Any five-year-old could author such a rant.

3) Reductio ad Hitlerum. When there is no evidence or argument, Hitler/Nazi will always do; and you do not disappoint with “F——g Nazi sympathizer”/dictator.

4) Death Wish. About 25% of all left-wing Angry Readers contain some type of death wish/death threat. (“Go take a long walk off a short pier you disgusting excuse for a human!”) Why do supposedly caring, egalitarian, and empathetic leftists wish for the deaths of their ideological opposites? In my case, I hope to beat my current diagnosis and upset your wish for my drowning. So not yet! Not today!

5) Falsity and Fables. “The country does better under Democrats?” I am sorry but your “numbers” do lie.

Consider the wars abroad that broke out under Biden. The Ukraine War (ca. 2 million wounded, missing, or dead) began with a Russian invasion after Joe Biden’s disastrous Afghan pullout emboldened Vladimir Putin. Biden said his reaction to another Putin invasion of Ukraine on a Democratic president’s watch (cf. Obama’s hot mic quid pro quo in 2012 and the subsequent Putin invasions of Crimea and the Donbas in 2014) would hinge on whether it was a major or “minor” invasion.

Biden’s lifting of sanctions and normalization of Iran and its proxies led to a second theater war with the October 7 attack by the Iranian surrogate Hamas on Israel. Biden begged Iran to re-enter the “Iran deal” as it was poised to test a nuclear weapon.

Biden lifted the terrorist designation of the Houthis, which guaranteed they would routinely increase attacks on Red Sea shipping. Hezbollah and Hamas became emboldened under the Biden presidency.

China sent a spy balloon across the U.S. with virtual impunity, as it began to serially threaten Taiwan. Biden before the 2022 midterms drained almost half of the strategic petroleum reserve and reversed course and courted the Saudi royal family he had insulted earlier, all in efforts to lower the price of gas before the midterm election.

Biden destroyed the border and allowed 10-12 million illegal aliens to enter the country, unaudited and without health checks, including some 500,000 criminal aliens. Trump closed the border in 90 days and ceased all illegal immigration as we had known it under Biden.

Consider the economic record of the 2021–25 Biden years, with Trump’s January 20 to February 1, 2026, first year:

Biden’s aggregate inflation over four years was 21.5% or 5.4% annualized; the Trump first year, 2025 saw inflation drop to 2.6 % or about half the average Biden yearly rate.

As far as foreign investment, Trump’s first year has received pledges for as much foreign investment in one year than as Biden saw in four. Biden’s four-year average of annualized GDP through January 2025 was about 3%; under Trump’s first year, it may well reach 4% when the fourth quarter stats arrive. Biden had a yearly average 13% increase in the stock market; Trump’s first year (2025) saw a 17% gain.

In sum, your angry letter was characterized by childish profanity and obscenity. You cited no evidence that prompted your unhinged rant. As is the habit of the Left, when there is no light, only mindless heat follows, along with the desperate resort to Hitler/Nazi similes, as it does here.

As with so many Angry Readers, leftists like yourself either threaten those with whom they disagree or publicly call for their deaths. And finally, your 10 score was ensured by your abject fables that Democrats “statistically” compile a better presidential record than Republicans.

Wishing you the best VDH. We love you. This is the modern leftist, angry to point of rage often violent and worst of all completely godless. There is no reasoning with these lunatics. I'm certain he has a "Hate Has No Home Here" sign in his front yard sans any self-awareness.

Dear Victor, I am not shocked at TDs Angry Reader comment, it seems these unhinged leftists are everywhere now. Fabulous response, you always put them in their place. The more successful Trump is the more out of control they become. It's as if their heads are about to explode. We have them here in our small town as well. They protest along side the paid Indivisables protesters. It is quite amusing to see them meander about the downtown area with their signs and scripted chanting. Most are so old they couldn't really do anything to stop Trumps continued success even if they wanted to. We ignore and go about our day because we know the truth. Trump will prevail and come out the winner in the end. Please continue to rest, heal, and never mind the TDs of this world. Kimberly Colburn

Timothy Doris is a L-O-S-E-R.

Victor, Don't let Mr. Doris Marx get you down. He is probably one of the people that shrilled after the election we need to require an Intelligence Test before voting (which was eliminated because it was discriminatory and a barrier to voting), but now is screeching that requiring ID to vote is discriminatory and a barrier to voting (Since people do not have the intelligence to find out how to get birth certificate or marriage certificate). He is too busy utilizing his egotistical entitlement to rationally think. Have a Wonderful Day and Keep Healing!

I was thinking along the lines of your initial response on whether this was a real letter or “just a comic caricature of sick doggerel?”

VDH, you have finally met your intellectual match. Mr Doris is a bainiac first class.

Gee, I can’t wait for Timmy’s rebuttal. Kidding. Very nice of you to respond with such grace and factual evidence, Victor.

Why is there no reductio ad stalinum? There should be.

First of all I never trust or acknowledge anyone with a first and last name that are both first names (Timothy-Doris). Second, name calling indicates he lost the fight from the start. Third I love your response and wager TD didn’t understand or comprehend any of it. I’ll keep listening keep up the good fight Victor.

@Florin Niculescu -- perhaps you need the same counseling as Timothy Doris. Additionally, you may want to run spell-check before posting your comments. "pieces" rather than "peaces" and "successful" rather than "succesful". You're welcome.

Florin Niculescu 9 months ago

I cannot believe that this is a real letter and such person may exist. My suspicion is that Victor generated this AI letter to synthesize all the invectives of an "Angry Reader" and then to decompose them in small peaces to give to the the AI letter a 10 score. It is a wonderful object to debate, something between Homer and Cicero. Anyhow, with or without the real Angry Reader "Doris" this is a wonderful and very succesful debate.

Thanks Victor! Sorry you and others have to endure this type of assault! This person seems to think that he/she can say anything without consequences! This person needs to be educated!

I think Mr. Doris needs help. He's nuts.

My vision of Timoth Doris: hair down to the waist, bearded, tattooed neck, unkempt, parent's basement dwelling, Bad Bunny fan, ICE protestor with profanity-laced signs, Bernie Sanders and AOC voting communist liberal. The country would be far better off without him in it. God Bless VDH.

Jim Dick 9 months ago

Wow, this person seems to be a raving madman. Your response is clear and complete. Please continue to post the "Angry Reader" segments, they are entertaining.

Its the hit dog that howls. Victor, you have certainly hit this one.
