They kicked out former FBI Director James Comey for what he did to President Donald Trump. If we impeach Trump we’ll be stuck with Vice President Mike Pence who’s worse. Pence is more quiet about it. He couldn’t win re-election for Indiana governor. He’s that unpopular there. If you hear some of his ideas, some of the things he did will turn your stomach. Trump, as bad as he is, isn’t as bad as Pence. The only chance we have is if he hasn’t done too much damage by 2018 to kick enough Republicans out of the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives to put some fear into those U.S. Congress guys and stop Trump’s wild plans.
When the New England Patriots won Super Bowl LI, they should have thanked Chicago Bears management for giving them two of their gifted players: Shea McClellin and Martellus Bennett, who’s now with the Green Bay Packers. Nice going, Bears management.

With all the political talk about Russia hacking the emails of Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and possibly others, some people are saying, “Why would we want our enemy as our friend?” Well, personally, with Russia I would rather have Russia as our friend.
To the commenter from Burbank who stated that we should embrace and appreciate ‘We the people’ being meaningful again: I know where you’re coming from. You think you have found your knight in shining armor. The majority of people who voted for President Donald Trump feel the same way – that he’s going to make this country great again and bring back the jobs. My only thought is: I hope we will be around to appreciate his majesty.
