While the Neo-Nazi, white nationalist movement was always a key part of Trump’s power base, it was never flaunted as it is now. Desperately needing the support of the hate group fringe, Trump doesn’t even try to hide his association with it now. He’d suck up to the devil himself if he thought it would put him back in the White House.the sad part is that Americans still support this hate and fear mongering crook.
Mainstream Republicans are suddenly running from Donald Trump like scared rabbits, blaming him for their mid-term disaster, but it has given them cover to do now what they should have done long ago. Longtime silence only extended the damage, eroded credibility and underscored weak backbone. Liz Cheney deserves the real medal of honor.
When our country was founded and our amendments were made, there were no automatic weapons. They are efficient killing machines meant for war. To keep referring to our second amendment rights concerning this class of guns is absurd and inherently dishonest. With over 600 mass killings just this year, I can’t understand the inaction. We had a ban for a short time in our history and we need to do this again. Don’t let the scare tactics of Republican extremists block this important and life saving legislation .
Breaking News: It is now known that Hershel Walker has owned the house for 17 years he is registered at in Georgia to vote. However, it has been rented for 17 years from the first day he purchased it. Hershel lives in Texas. He’s not even eligible to run for office. Lock Him Up!
Christmas is coming. Online shopping for gifts is already at a fever pitch. The postal service and other delivery services are pleading with us to get our letters, cards and gifts in the mail now! Many of us will procrastinate and wait until the ‘last minute.’ Here are some of the concerns. How fair is it to overwork our salespeople and overwhelm our delivery systems? Last minute shopping and mailing can place a lot of stress on these groups. Remember there is a shortage of help in many businesses. Some workers are dealing with viruses and other ailments. Workers have families and home responsibilities. Give ’em a break! Don’t be like the man who said, ‘I am going to stop putting things off starting next week.’
In the photo accompanying the recent article in the Post-Tribune on the refusal of Republicans to certify election results in an Arizona county, a protester is seen with a sign in big letters demanding “Voter TRANSPANCEY.” Transpancey? Transparency maybe? Whatever. It tells you a lot about the intelligence of those who absolutely refuse to accept the results of any election they lose. Members of the Board of Supervisors certifying the results in that county are even being subjected to calls for their execution as traitors. Kari Lake, who lost the election for governor and refuses to concede, is still going around the state demanding that she be declared the winner. And Donald Trump, who endorsed her, is insisting that she be immediately installed as governor. Will we ever regain our sanity? Not as long as poisonous people like Trump and Lake are still around.
I notice that since Trump announced he is running in 2024 again, gasoline prices have been rapidly dropping. At this rate, we will be back to Trump $2 gasoline by the time of the 2024 elections. Now if we could just get Donald to work on Joe’s record inflation!
It’s gotten to the point where it’s just funny. The resident Quickly Trumpster condemns Nancy Pelosi for being a “hater,” while expressing nothing but the most vile hatred of Nancy Pelosi. It’s also pretty hilarious to say Newt Gingrich was a better Speaker of the House. It was Gingrich who led the way in making hatred and vitriol the very foundations of Republican policy.
