It's A Wonderful Letter

Letter in today's New York Times:

To the Editor:

In her speech at the G.O.P. convention Monday night, Natalie Harp, a cancer survivor, made reference to the film “It’s a Wonderful Life,” comparing Donald Trump to George Bailey, the main character in the film, played by my father, Jimmy Stewart.

Given that this beloved American classic is about decency, compassion, sacrifice and a fight against corruption, our family considers Ms. Harp’s analogy to be the height of hypocrisy and dishonesty.

We believe the late Jimmy Stewart -- a WWII veteran, Air Force General and lifelong Republican -- would be proud of his daughter.
