Putin’s Trump card
For all the Trump supporters out there, I know a lot of you still want to give him a pass but this is downright ridiculous. This man snaps on all of our allies and anyone else, but I have yet seen him stand up to Vladimir Putin. People say Vladimir Putin doesn’t have anything on Trump. I was believing this. But somehow I am finding it easier to believe that Vladimir Putin has something because this is the only person I’ve never seen him say anything bad about or stand up to.
No help for seniors
I would like somebody to explain to me why, in our wonderful country, an American citizen can’t get the help they need through the government. I am talking about seniors. An illegal can come here and get everything. I have a neighbor across from me who brags she gets everything for nothing. They have 17 people living there and they get food stamps. Yet when I need a second insurance, they don’t give it to me until I meet a spend down. I can’t afford a spend down. If you say something, oh, you are discriminating. My family came from Europe, and we worked hard. All my work was for nothing. I can’t even go to the doctor.
Female standards
Funny how men like President Trump are the lone villain when a sexual fling is exposed. Historically, aren’t women expected to set a higher moral standard? The frantic crusade to sustain abortion rights sort of annuls any false concept of a higher female moral character.
Infighting not American
The CIA, the FBI, the NSA, Congress and all the Democrats and Republicans who hate Donald Trump are like a bunch of radical Islamists. They hate the country. They hate Trump. They don’t want to see any progress. It is evident by the fact they won’t get together and pass an immigration law. They won’t do anything. We have the most dysfunctional country in the whole wide world.
Wilson’s act discriminatory
In Chicago news, we witnessed mayoral candidate Willie Wilson hand out cash to lines of people of his race and possibly some Hispanics. No discrimination mentioned. If the reversal of this occurred in a white setting, the outrage on TV news would likely blow out the sound system.
