The DNC tried to push their candidate upon the voters. They should learn from the Republicans that if you want a winning candidate, you should let the voters decide. Had they done that, I suspect Bernie would be changing our laws to help society not Trump trying to change the laws to help the 1 percent.
Yes, medical marijuana would ease the opioid problem. But the pharmaceutical lobbyists would never allow our legislators to consider that. When the pharmaceutical industry influences certain drug dependency, nobody bats an eye.
First off, the NFL players are not prisoners and they are not running the prison. That mentality is so racist and so wrong. These players are employees of the NFL, not slaves, as you wish they were. If there are thousands of other “real American boys” willing to play football for a million bucks, the NFL would have signed them to a contract.
There are three reasons I haven’t ordered Papa John’s pizza in years: First, their pizza tastes like hot, wet garbage. Second, I’ll never forget when their founder made a big stink in the run up to the ACA, telling everyone that if it became law he would have to jack up prices and lay off workers. Third, I’d much rather support small local businesses like T’s, JJ’s or Gelsosomo’s than some jerk who’s never even heard of the Region.
Does Trump ever get tired of talking out of both sides of his mouth? He constantly talks about respecting law enforcement and then he tweets “Tucker Carlson opening statement about our once cherished and great FBI was so sad to watch, James Comey’s leadership was a disaster!” No, our FBI is professional, because Trump was not able to get them to drop charges for his friend, which does not make Comey a disaster.
Indiana has a surplus. Right to work, charter schools, less taxes. However, now we need toll roads? People who keep voting for Republicans are fools.
The opposition to deficits for Republicans is a tactic, not a deeply held value. They toss those concerns the minute there’s an opportunity to cut taxes.
It’s is quite alarming that while the special counsel and the FBI are just in the beginning stages of this investigation, the president and his team are already talking about pardons. You would think that the focus would be first and foremost on punishing any and all wrongdoers that have harmed our country and election system.
Hillary supporters are not sore losers. They are still, and will always be, upset and disappointed that such an unqualified man won.
Refusing to vote is not a protest, it’s a surrender.
Sam Clovis withdrew his name from consideration. They either get fired, resign, get indicted or don’t even make it to first base. All this winning is making me dizzy.
