He should be reelected

What’s all this mess going on in New York with these two dumb attorneys trying to prosecute Trump for a case? It’s not even on the books. I think in 2024, President Trump is gaining a lot of campaign money coming in and he should be reelected. These two attorneys should be disbarred.

Affordable but unwanted?

Everybody wants affordable housing. Everyone, all the big people on the left, you go and put affordable housing in your neighborhood. They don’t want it in Naperville.

This will not happen

I want to comment on “I want an apology,” where the person was talking about the left-winger that didn’t believe what they said about natural gas. Number one, I get what the guy is saying, but I don’t think an apology is the proper thing. First of all, you have to stand up to these climatologist freaks. That’s all they are. There’s nothing wrong with supplementing the energy that we have. You don’t systematically say everything we have is bad. Natural gas burns clean. What it does to cost is pretty reasonable for us here in the United States of America. Electricity needs a grid. You can’t have solar power all the time. It’s not economical. There’s still an economics lesson to all the liberal left-wing lunatics. There’s always an economic portion to the equation. If you don’t understand that then you’re even more stupid than I thought you already were. I’m standing firm. There’s nobody that’s going to stop me from having natural gas in my home. This will not happen. It will only happen if morons, and that includes people on my side of the fence, don’t do anything and allow this to happen. The people have the power. We will stop these types of things from happening. Furthermore, with the 2024 election, once Biden is drop-kicked, the whole world will be better off.

Costs more to leave

U-Haul rates are going to go up. For anybody leaving Chicago, if you want to rent a U-Haul truck, it’s probably going to cost you four times as much to get out of a city as it would if you bought it in, say, Tennessee to come into Chicago. But you know, nobody from Tennessee is moving to Chicago. So, it doesn’t really matter to the people in Tennessee. It’s just like in California, where it costs four times the amount to rent a truck to move out of California as it did for one to move in. Congratulations Democrats. Yeah, Chicago now has a Marxist, Leninist, Stalinist mayor. You thought that Lori Lightfoot was something else, wait till you get a hold of Brandon Johnson.

Don’t you understand?

This is to the economics-challenged Republican who called in and said, in regard to the failures at the two banks, that it wasn’t deregulation. My friend, let me explain to you that when interest rates rise, bonds fall. That is why the banks failed. The reason they did that is because they were deregulated. Jeez, get it right. Don’t you understand economics whatsoever?
