Letter: Trump should at least stop digging

On Oct. 3, President Trump announced he has asked China to aid his campaign by investigating Joe Biden to provide political dirt.
Trump seems to have forgotten Molly Ivins’ First Rule of Holes:” When you find yourself in one, stop digging.”
Trump rejects advice and ignores advisors, preferring to rely on his gut. The problem with that is that his gut, as with all guts, is that it is full of s***.
