Protest with pocketbooks
I voted for Donald Trump, and I’m glad I did. The past few weeks have been incredible. I approve of all his presidential actions. I laugh at all the far left, the Democrats, socialists and Hollywood. Like Gen. Yamamoto of Japan said after the Pearl Harbor attack, “We have awakened a sleeping giant.” While these childish protests continue, we have the power to vote with our pocketbooks. We all love our favorite television and movie actors, but when they force empty rhetoric on us, it’s time to stop watching their films. You can find out who won the next day on the news and watch their movies on Netflix.
Backlash begins
It’s my understanding that President Trump was going to the Harley-Davidson plant in Milwaukee. Harley-Davidson is America like apple pie and Chevrolet. They told him they don’t want him there. We have just started the backlash. Just 12 days into his presidency, and he had under a 50 percent approval rating. Congratulations to you people who elected him. Now we will have to live with him for the next four years. I don’t think Trump has a clue about how much backlash he will face. That travel ban was insane.
Disappointed in Democrats
The Democrats are such phonies. President Trump appointed Neil Gorsuch to be a Supreme Court justice. He has stood up for Christians and other religions. The Democrats criticized Trump for being against the Muslim religion, yet they are fighting against this appointment. Not only is Hollywood annoying to me, but so are the Democrats. What a bunch of crybabies.
Vexed about executive orders
I agree with Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer from New York. The president signed unconstitutional executive orders and showed total disregard for our country. The only problem is I’m not talking about President Trump. I’m talking about former President Obama. He signed numerous executive orders. An executive order should not change the law. Schumer is just your typical hypocrite on the left.
Pie in the sky dreams
This is about the Sierra Club endorsing Lisa May for Waukegan mayor. You want to shut down the power plants and everything else along the lakefront. How do you expect people to keep their jobs? Oh, training programs for NRG employees who may be displaced. You have pie in the sky dreams for the lakefront, but it’s not going to happen in my lifetime or yours. Realize that on the south end, you have PCB contamination at astronomical levels. If you head farther north, you have the power plant and the sanitary district. Who will build million dollar condominiums on the lakefront next to a sanitary district? If that’s not enough, go north of the NRG property and see the biggest asbestos dump in the country. The pie in the sky dreams are screwing with people’s jobs and energy. Wake up to the facts, people.
