Jealousy

The Democratic Congressional representatives’ responses to President Trump’s speech to Congress were completely embarrassing and simply juvenile jealousy. The Democrats’ hatred for Trump far outweighs their love for this country. They simply have no policies other than anything Trump is for, they are against, including men playing in women sports. Good luck to them in the future when going against 80% of the voters. I’d rather be governed by Common Sense than by loudmouth extremists with no plans except yelling insults.

Sad scene

I join the chorus of people online who found it appalling when the legislators disrupted the president’s speech to Congress. And, yes, I’m talking about Joe Wilson’s “You lie,” Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert’s antics, and the Democrats last night. All ridiculous.

Another big lie

It is disgraceful and outrageous that President Trump blamed Ukraine’s President Zelenskyy for starting the war with Russia instead of blaming Vladimir Putin for starting it. And it is shameful that, so far as I have found, only one Republican member of Congress has disagreed in public with Trump over this issue. Such cowardice is despicable and profoundly disturbing.

Unemployment

Wasn’t unemployment a political issue four years ago? Closing the pipeline killed 10,000 jobs and there was an outcry. Now firing people is OK? I can’t keep up with what we are supposed to stand for from one news cycle to another.

Musk’s children

Some would describe the children born to the richest man on earth as “fortunate.” That’s debatable, and I hope for their sake that their various mothers have their feet on the ground and a lot of common sense.

Normalcy

The Trump administration is a return to normalcy. Embrace it or get out of the way.

Ukraine

Now that Ukraine has the Russians on the ropes, the cowardly Republicans, who don’t believe in serving, turn tail and run, so as to put more money in their wallets.
