David, in all due respect to you as a gifted, talented and television journalist with an easy to listen to radio voice, DeSantis may have hit a nerve saying the Cartel gangsters would be stopped dead-cold at the border, because your country is undergoing a fentanyl epidemic. If that news is right, you have to understand ordinary people want accountability. Let's be real though: today in the part of the world where we live, in Italy at Lampedusa, the authorities said that they can no longer contain the influx of refugees. We have had our neighborhoods change overnight where we live and in London, England which had 73% of people living in London in the early 70s, British people, it is now down to 37%. 1/3 of the people in the UK's capital city are British, 2/3rds are foreigners. Some say it is a sign of the times, but we should not be the victims of migrants coming into our countries any more than they should be scapegoats. What needs to be done is to have a mortarium for our countries to get back to normal. We need to be given the time to absorb the soaring number of refugees and asylum seekers, but how we do that is the real question.

David, you have devoted your life to The David Pakman Show and success is yours, because of one thing. You analyze the issues and deduce conclusions from the evidence that you accumulate, package it up and dish it out to us in sound bites we can chew on as long as we like. The cult you believe has formed around former President Donald J. Trump is based on one thing in my humble opinion: peer pressure. David, you have to understand that guys will hang out together from high school and there will be one in each group who mesmerizes all the other guys with feats of bravado, getting the chicks more than anyone else, having the chicks go for him more than anybody else----what am I saying here? The main dude in groups of male friends also calls the shots on what is cool. If he packs a Smith and Wesson, you can bet others will too. If he decides orthodontists are nurds because his dentist made him sick because he of what he looked like so he quit half way through treatment, then others in the group will make fun of orthodontists too. This is the nugget; if the top honcho in the band of brothers decides Trump tells it like it is, then all logic goes out of the window for the others in the group if they want to stay 'accepted' in the group, and from then on, every single one of them will mimic their leader and be present at a Trump rally. These Trumpists do not really listening to Trump's version of the world of course, but they are the ones cheering like mad the minute he says anything and applauding him especually when Trump says anything outrageous and blatently absurd that goes against the status quo...

Dear Mr Pakman, Thank you for some of the most uplifting election coverage and reporting on your president throughout the Trump years. David, what I take away from your election though is troubling. Do you realize that you have fired both barrels from the hip of buckshot-criticism at Trump; you have pointed out over and over the outrageous behavior, illegal activity, tweet-storms, rudeness, sexual misconduct, mental instability and here we are holding our breath, hoping that Biden scrapes by and wins the ticket to The Oval Office? What am I saying? I am saying that it seems no matter how much mud you throw at President Trump, nothing really stuck. What I want to know is why? Okay, here is what I think happened and I'm looking at your election from the other side of the world, so I have a much different perspective. What I think happened is that white voters got cold feet and pressed the Trump button because they suddenly realized that the Biden Presidency could quickly morph into the Harris Presidency and that America would be governed by a black woman and that scared them. Biden went for Harris for a good reason, she's a terrific person, but he did it thinking Trump would sink like the Bizmark when the votes came in, and he didn't sink, he's about even with Biden. David, your attacks barely dented his armor. What does this tell us about what voter's think? They don't care what their candidate is accused of if they think he is going to put food on the table. Also, who the hek is ever gonna listen to the polls anymore? What is happening is that people are lying when they get asked who they are going to vote for because they don't want anyone to know they really want to vote for the crooked candidate. It's just hard anymore to make sense of how so much criticism could be leveled at Trump by you and almost everyone else and yet see half the country voting for a person that is frankly off his rocker. Your country is going through something that none of you and no one else around the world can put a finger on, but if you ask me I think the current economic system is showing its ugly face by forcing decent people to pick a clown over a normal person because they themselves can't understand why they wake up every day with a sinking feeling. Something's not rotten in Denmark, something's rotten at the FED. It's the economy and money that drive people and if some crazy guy like Trump comes along and promises the moon and they believe, nothing, absolutely nothing anyone says or does will change their opinion. But if Biden would have picked a young guy Macron's age, I'm sure you wouldn't be sweating the results of the election like you are now. But who can say? Be well, you're doing a great job and we wish you continued success and great health -

Dear Mr Pakman, You have touched a subject that needs to be talked about: reading. I am very worried because in a few weeks or months my first book is going to be published. Writing as you probably know is one of the most challenging things one can do. Why; because you never get to say to yourself that your writing is anything more than needing more revision. In brief, I can’t believe how difficult it is to be happy with something I have written. My editor is pleading with me to send them the corrected manuscript, because I keep altering it. You see, once a book is published, you can never change it, so I keep asking them for more time. But after a couple of years I have to hand in the manuscript at the end of the month. Once it’s out there for everyone to judge, it can never be corrected. But I have to confess I’ve taken on a subject that is over my capabilities, and that is why I am doubly worried it will be scoffed. In brief, I am not an economist but for some reason I invented an economic system to replace capitalism and I am sure it will be ridiculed as completely utopic in nature, but I can only wait and see how it will be judged. Reading is essential, but is technology and YouTube taking us away from such a beneficial excercise? I'm afraid so. We have to realize that skills like reading, drawing, playing piano, singing, sports are what makes us human.

Mr Pakman, I’ve never experienced being shot at or being wounded by a bullet. The mass shootings in your country are a terrible stain on the otherwise wonderful nation America has become to stand for across the world. But as an outside observer from a country on the other side of the world from you, I have an idea that will surely not be appreciated by a lot of your fellow citizens, but I believe it’s the only way for you in America to bring down the level of mass shootings and neutralize more of the shooters. David, Isn’t the only way to defeat the gun problem your country staring us all in the face: mandatory gun-carry laws! Our thoughts and prayers go out to the victims of the mass-shooting in Boulder, Colorado, but seeing how the the 2nd Amendment in your Constitution allows guns to be sold and used and carried by people, why not use reverse psychology and make it mandatory for law-abiding, mentally and physically fit adults to be required to have a firearm on them at all times when they are in the public places? I know it must sound radical, perhaps even dangerous, but seeing what has been happening in your country from across the world, this is the only sane way to deal with problem Excuse me if this causes any pain, but honestly, I don’t see any other way to deal with lone gunmen or even terrorist attacks until the 2nd Amendment has been amended. To recap: People would be obliged to carry a concealed weapon on them at all times in public. We wear masques for a pandemic, isn’t the mass-shootings up to pandemic level? Why not accept that to live in America, you need a sidearm and you need to know how to use it if you want to survive? It's an opinion.

I'd like to throw in a solution that I believe is the only way forward, but I have no qualifications other than being a concerned world citizen living in Europe. My thinking goes like this: Why can't we ask the 26 Arab nations to come together and offer a parcel of land that is able to be enough for a country to thrive for the Palestinian people. Gaza is not enough space and cannot function as a country; the population of Gaza live in permanent state of insecurity and helplessness and it is like a festering wound. It gets cleaned with every mini-war, then the Hamas faction takes over, rebuilds the military arm, and then something ignites a new conflict. Can any of us imagine to live in a hell-hole like that and bring up our kids? No; no one can, but no one wants to tell it like it is. Israel has to win and will win and will never lose because it's really the silent 51st state of America. Gaza should go to Israel. Yes; I know this is preposterous to a great majortiy of people; but let's be real. It would give Israel the land it needs to become a country of a more respectable size. The Arab nations have more than enough land between them to come up with a parcel of their lands to offer the Palestinians an area large enough to prosper and thrive on. This is a painful, wrong-in-every-way solution, but it will lead to a win/win solution that will see one day in the future Palestinian and Israeli citizens at peace with eachother. It means concessions must be made; it means going against what people believe in, but there is no other way this can end peacefully. Briefly, Palestinians move from Gaza to a chosen land from their Arab brothers and sisters, and Gaza goes to Israel. Peace is something that can only happen when opposing sides have their backs against the wall. That time is now...

David, I have to say this to you and it's about your country and 9/11 and first you should interview American physicist Dr Judy Wood who spent ten years investigating 9/11. You won't be disappointed. This is a fact: 220,000 tons of structural steel came tumbling down and most of it never reached the ground, did it? For crying out loud, the Manhattan bathtub was not even dented, the parking garage under the towers did not cave in. Red flag anyone? There were people trapped with a firefighter in the bottom corner at ground level in one of the towers, suddenly they heard the tower they were under begin to fall and all said goodbye to each other because 100 floors were about to crush them to death, but seconds later, they were stunned to see sunlight shooting through the roof of their floor. Where had all the rubble gone. 3,000 porcelain toilets were in the towers and not one piece bigger than a silver dollar was ever found; ditto with office equipment, chairs, computers. The biggest red flad was that the government said Building 7 came down because of an office fire---a waste paper basket was to blame. President Bush waited 440 days to set up an investigative commission. The longest any prior president waited to set up a similar commission after a disaster was... are you ready for this: 6 days. My cousin is an airline pilot and he said a commercial plane would break up at 540 mph flying at 300 feet above the ground. The main hijacker’s passport was found in the street below---not even singed. And: this happened too: 57 out of 58 of the Pentagon's surveillance cameras were turned off that morning. Stuff happens, it was certainly a coincidence...

David, please save your critiques about people's brain-wave capacities. You know very well you had to repeat 3rd grade three times! Joking, of course. David, I was kidding? He's where? Goofy tonight, but seriously, please refrain from judging Eric Trump's mental dollars, if he is broke, people will see it, but you don't need to remind us he is short-changed. He is in mental denial to a degree that is dangerous to himself and those around him, because he has bought into a rhetoric that is banana-republic government-speak. Stay calm through the coming rough seas on the Trump-bumps in the long and winding road ahead that leads to San Quentin in the sky, because more likely than not, former President Donald J. Trump will be spending more time in heaven or where ever famous crime-family chiefs go than in a prison cell. Show and don't tell; stay relaxed and there is no need to get emotional, this a sad event for your country and you do a magnificent job in cutting to the chase.

Good work David Pakman! You are exposing people to candidates running for office in your country who are literally not qualified or capable of being in government, and whom are using the devious techniques to pretend they are that you have graciously outlined in your videocast. This is not only good for the American public, it is good for people watching across the world from you, because politics and politicians may look different and talk another language or worship another God, but they use the same playbook and we the people need to be aware of the fools we elect to lead us. People like Vivek Ramaswamy, a Vics Vapor Rub sort of guy in that he gives the impression that he has got what it takes to cure all of society’s ills, but in reality, all he offers is a double flubber burger with twisted truths and no substance and who makes up word salads that explain things no one seems to know or care about. Vivec is brilliant but America doesn’t need another dyed-in-the wool Trump figure i.e., another politician who gives a wax shine on every subject he’s quizzed about whether it needs it or not. To wrap this up: Vivec might be accused of being a political contender of merit one day, but he won't get there by speaking through both sides of his mouth saying things that only make sense if you forget the question that was asked of him. In brief, he will be one of America's best and brightest Republican politicians in the future’s past and yesterday’s present.

Dear Mr Pakman, Your delivery of the news has reached 9 out of ten so many times that it's hard to find anything to criticize you for, but for you giving your assessment at 5:10 about President Trump being this and that, a threat to humanity, etc., seems to go too far. By you stating emphatically what you have just said sort of removes for your viewers the need to come up with anything more to say on the matter. Maybe that's fine with you? But I think, if you lay out the facts as you do in an extremely efficient way and then say something like, "Well, I know what I think should happen with our president, but, hey, what do you guys think? Right away, people will think stuff like: "What, are you crazy, they need to evaluate psychiatrically President Trump, lik---yesterday!" By you detonating the sound-bite bomb, lighting the fuse to the mega-political dynamite, it takes away from the viewer the ability for the people viewing to think it, say it, etc. It's an opinion.

Dear Mr Pakman, You obviously have a keener eye and ear for details, but the Hardball Chris’ remarks about France falling to the Germans doesn’t really come off to me as anything more than landslide commentary. I live next to France so maybe I don’t see it as something sinister, but if he compared Bernie’s victory to the Russians winning in Stalingrad, would that have been any better? I think there are sensibilities that are fragile everywhere on everything these days. I have one thing to say about Sanders and that is that he is hands down the winning candidate, but his eyes seem to be saying, “I know I shouldn’t be here, but I love my country and I’ll die for it if it means winning against Trump”. I hope I’m wrong, but I think a heart attack means the heart muscle was damaged and getting up in front of raving supporters has got to be hell on the nervous system. I know when The Rolling Stones play a stadium, they need something like 3 hours to come down from the adrenalin rush. I think it will be a miracle if Bernie makes it to 2021. I don't think Chris from Hardball was referring to anything more that a big Victory. I'm looking at things from a long way away, just an opinion
