The ballroom

So the big beautiful ballroom will be paid by private donations. My question is what all of these donors will get out of it?

Our broken government

As a conservative, lifetime Republican I am becoming more concerned about the direction our country is going. There has to be a better solution to existing problems such as Illegal immigration, rioting in our cities against law enforcement, criminals not being held accountable, interdiction of drugs crossing our border, health insurance for the needy, and homelessness. Our politicians cannot talk to each other because of extreme left wing liberal’s vulgar, hateful rhetoric and extreme right wing response. Liberals and conservatives should move closer to the center so that issues can be negotiated, civilly and respectfully. Radicals in our government need to be held accountable and voted out of office.

No parking?

The White House ballroom is only the beginning. Has anybody considered which building will be next when they discover they need parking space.

Please explain

Legacy media continues to say that President Trump is destroying the Constitution, the White House and of course you. Identity politics is eating Democrats alive, and they are too stupid to realize it.

Environmental disaster

President Trump wants to open the entire coastal waters to drilling. Say goodbye to our way of life, not to mention the impact on our environment. What is it going to take for us to stop him?

The shutdown

Another day of the minority party holding our government hostage because they don’t like what a majority of Americans have voted for. Ridiculous.

I’ve heard it all

President Trump is suing his/our government for 240 million dollars for pain and suffering for being indicted by the DOJ. That’s taxpayer money.
