Pelosi’s fault?
So it’s Nancy Pelosi’s fault that the insurrection wasn’t stopped? Are you aware Donald Trump was commander in chief of the armed forces at that time?
Cat logic
My cat is sitting outside, hunkered down, like the solar flare from the sun caused the earth’s magnetic field to shift the earth and he is now freezing at the center of the South Pole, and all he can do is look north.
Not better off
During the Trump administration, I was able to get financially stable. I’m at the low end of the middle-class scale. I live on a fixed income, and having a mortgage loan at 2.75%, low gas prices, affordable grocery costs and lower utility costs made it possible to get out of debt. Over the past 3 1/2 years, due to the higher costs of fuel, utilities, groceries and restaurants, my income doesn’t go as far. It has resulted in my drastically reducing travel, purchasing groceries and retail products and, for the first time, having credit card debt. During my almost 8 decades of life I thought the Carter administration was bad, but this administration is the absolute worst.
Threats
Victims of the recent hurricanes have been threatened by armed nuts for using FEMA. The disinformation from Donald Trump’s campaign has made FEMA employees the enemy. This is extreme madness and there are not good people on both sides.
Polls
Isn’t it odd how the polls will begin to reverse their liberal slant when it gets closer to election time.
The same
I love the Sound Off suggesting that Donald Trump is “clueless” for proposing a 60 percent tariff on goods from China and the effect of higher prices. But I wonder if you are also one of the people that can’t seem to understand that raising taxes on corporations does exactly the same thing. The difference being Trump’s statement was a preemptive negotiating tactic that will benefit the U.S., while the latter will be immediate and long lasting.
Winner
The person who wrote “Support felon” wins the prize for best example of why half the country is supporting Donald Trump. Good to know.
