The Dems rigged the election by holding up your Christmas cards in the mail? You must be one of those QAnon kooks.

Has Trump yet claimed that actually the Kansas City Chiefs won the Super Bowl — by a lot?

Rather than protect the bad actors who happen to own businesses and ignore mandates in regards to COVID-19 from liability, our representatives should be more concern with protecting Indiana voters. Once again, their loyalty to money surpasses concern for citizens.

You think Democrats rigged the election because of mail being late? Trump appointed a postmaster that removed automated sorting equipment to ensure that mail would not be received on time. Add to that the fact that more Democrats vote by mail than Republicans, and your opinion sounds kind of crazy.

Yes, there were probably some shenanigans pulled during the election, and given that the Republicans did all they could to suppress the vote, it’s likely that more Biden votes didn’t get counted than did Trump’s. Whether it was denying citizens the right to mail in ballots or attempting to cripple the postal service, or reducing the number of voting sites, Trump and his lackeys engaged in blatant acts of voter suppression. They were so arrogant they didn’t even try to hide it.

If you vote for any Republican, you vote to support a party that attempted a violent overthrow of our government. Remember that every time you’re in the voting booth.

I fear one of these car jackers will end up in a body bag rather than prison. All it takes is coming upon an armed victim and the narrative will change very quickly.

I am so sick of ugly people. I don’t mean that in any physical sense. I mean that in the obvious cruelty being shown to others everywhere. What do people get out of being so mean? Nobody is any better than anyone else.

I’d like to respond to the reader espousing wind turbines. The residents in Wyoming are not huge fans. Turbines are noisy, ugly and damaging to wildlife. Before President Obama left office, he signed a waiver for turbine due to all the eagles being killed. I’m also told all the energy that is produced goes to either California or Oregon. So those states can fill their green energy agenda. I’m not certain what the answer is to our energy dilemma.

Trump attempted a violent overthrow of our government. But Instead of condemning him by impeachment, Republican leaders are now rallying around him. That’s why Republicans are leaving the party by the tens of thousands. They are defending America. Thank you, fellow Americans.

Hey Dems, keep this in mind … 75 million people voted FOR Donald Trump. Of the 80 million voters on the other side, 40 million voted for Joe Biden and 40 million voted against Trump. Donald Trump won’t be on the ballot again. You Dems are in big trouble.

The fight against Vote By Mail (VBM) is a losing battle! Research has proven along with the courts that fraud is minimal and not impactful. Young folks not only see VBM as the future of voting, they are also pushing for internet voting. What’s great about America is that new generations will determine our future, not old stodgy politicians or Quickly writers! Can you imagine what our country would be like if new generations had not pushed for advances in technology, transportation, medicine, education, etc.? Change is inevitable. Our responsibility, I believe, is to make sure that change is promoted and managed by our best and our brightest and will help us maintain our reputation as ‘a shining city on a hill!’

Trevor McFadden, the federal judge who has given accused Capitol rioter Jenny Cudd permission to leave the country to attend a vacation/retreat in Mexico, is not only a Trump appointee (surprise, surprise) but a contributor to Trump’s political campaigns. Cudd bragged about helping break down the doors of congressmen and far from expressing any regrets said that she would gladly do it all again. Impeach McFadden. He’s a disgrace to the federal bench.

Charles Manson and James Jones were both dynamic leaders with crazy ideas and loyal followers. Thank goodness they didn’t have social media to disperse their message.

Donald Trump’s playbook found in the rubble of our desecrated U.S. Capitol: Shout America first (put hide trump cards up sleeve). Exploit race (start with Kenya). Denigrate immigrants (thugs, terrorists, drug dealers). Fake religion. Manipulate evangelicals. Guzzle Fox gatorade and mega-rally energy drinks. Forget truth. Make it up. Blame, bully and belittle. Butter up dictators. Inflate crowds. Slam the press. Play the victim. Bend legality. Call Democrats radical socialists. Turn Hillary into a crook and Nancy Pelosi into Attila the Hun. Wrap the game plan with the America flag. Call it patriotism. Create mayhem. Fuel the chaos. Watch it explode.
