Illinois voters have to drain the swamp in Chicago, Cook County and other counties along with Springfield and Washington, D.C. All elected and appointed Democrats have to go. The Democratic Party is forcing companies and citizens to flee Illinois in large number. Chicago’s on the verge of ending up like Detroit. Downtown Chicago is the only place to visit, shop or eat. That’s changing also. Outside downtown Chicago is a war zone. President Donald Trump isn’t going to help until all Democrats are gone and Illinois isn’t a blue state. It’s 90 percent red. Chicago’s the only blue. . . Let’s start draining the swamp.

Why do we have to keep going to foreign oil when we’re loaded with oil in America? Former President Barack Obama leaving office was the best thing that ever happened to America. He took care of foreign aid and foreign countries and gave American dollars to them. Good riddance, Obama. You’ve hurt Americans. We have oil in America. It could mean thousands and thousands and thousands of American jobs.
I was watching George Stephanopoulos grill Paul Ryan on the GOP’s health care bill. You’d think George came from another planet in his utter disregard for the disaster that is Obamacare. George, the GOP bill is good, Obamacare care is “real bad,” get on board the train to competent health care management.
