Issues, not crises

Here are the issues that Trump says are crisis threatening our country: illegal immigration, unfair tariffs, illegal drugs, and war ravaged cities. Well, illegal immigration/undocumented workers have been tolerated in this country for decades. Republicans like it because it means cheaper labor. Democrats like it because it means future voters, Consumers like it because it means cheaper prices at the grocery store. So, not a crisis. Tariffs have been an issue for well over a century. But, since World War II, the US has had the world’s strongest economy and the highest standard ...

Robber Barons

The long-anticipated addition to the White House has begun, the ballroom. It will be almost twice the size of th e currant White House. The price tag continues to grow, Trump said 230 million dollars now it is 300 million dollars. He originally proposed that he would pay for it now its big money donors along with his money whose names will be emblazon in gold on the walls of the ballroom. He also said he was not going to touch or change the White House it would be separate but close to the White House. The East Wing of the White House is being torn down for the ballroom. I am sure ...

Radical Democrats

The radical liberal and progressive Democrats are so full of hate for President Trump that they would starve and freeze the poor and destitute. How can such hate exist: to hate someone so much that you would harm innocent children because you disagree politically with him. The clean CR is only for three months funding. Why can’t the Democrats be adult about this and be the better person: past the clean stop gap bill, then negotiate a full year budget??? You lost the election; so accept it and come up with plan and suggestion other than “because we hate Donald Trump.” You ...

The enemy within

I have become “the enemy within,” an enemy of the people—at least according to Donald J. Trump, self-anointed Lord Protector of what is American. Proof of my guilt? My actions don’t convict me. In my youth, I served with honor and some distinction in the U.S. Army. I went where ordered, including into harm’s way, relying on the courage of fellow soldiers, our allies, and a measure of luck to survive. If not my actions, then what? My beliefs, it seems. The “Most High” calls me a “radical Democrat,” a label used to paint anyone who disagrees with him as extreme. ...

Parking narcissism

I agree it’s nice to park in front of your house, and it’s an unspoken thing neighbors that get along usually respect. But for those very low IQ controlling neighbors who have narcissistic symptoms when it comes to parking, they actually think the spot in front of their house on the public street belongs to them, and if you dare get close to it or briefly park in it, they go insane. Some parking narcissistic neighbors even want their next next-door neighbors parking spot they have been using for years. To those out of the park thinking folks I have one thing to say to you, “get ...

A winning issue

It seems that killing babies is a winning issue in American elections these days. The three Supreme Court justices up for retention in Pennsylvania join in ads boldly stating they will continue to protect the right of women to kill their babies (even though judges are supposed to be impartial and usually are in promoting themselves in elections.) The fliers of the opposition supporting a “no” vote on retention conspicuously avoid the abortion issues, referring to other flawed positions of the current judges. They apparently think most Pennsylvanians support the killing of the ...
