It’s time for new leaders

I’ve been reading the News-Sun for many years, and I’ve been around for a long time. I get so disgusted every day reading because it’s a Democrat bad-mouthing a Republican or a Republican bad-mouthing a Democrat or some other politician. It’s gotten out of hand. They’re supposed to be working for the American people — not themselves, not their buddies. They’re supposed to be working for the American people and they’re not. They’re spending all their time fighting each other and arguing with each other instead of working together. I don’t care if they’re Democrat or Republican. I think they need to get rid of the parties and let them work on what they are, not what their party is. This is getting out of hand. It’s a joke to read the paper nowadays because all you hear is who did that to who and it’s gotten crazy. Why don’t they just work together and get the job done that they’re paid to do. The Democrats wasted so much money on going after Trump and never got anywhere. Instead of putting that money to good use for the people, they wasted it on all these investigations and everything else. They’re all crooked. There isn’t a politician out there that isn’t a crook in some way or another. But they are supposed to work for the people, and it’s about time they did. Or maybe we ought to get politicians who do and start all over.

Biden won, fair and square

At least Biden is putting people who know what they’re doing. And for the benefit of the country, not for themselves. Like right now, Trump doesn’t care about the country, he’s on a one-way track of mind, for himself, he just wants to get a second term, even if he has to cheat and lie. He cannot accept that he lost fair and square. Biden is for the country and for everyone.

Don’t cut away from ‘Price is Right’

Really? I’m watching the Price is Right and Channel 2 cuts in and we have to watch five people get the COVID-19 shot. Flip over to Channel 5, Channel 7, Channel 9, they’re all broadcasting it. Come on, people. That’s ridiculous.

It’s time to give Biden a hard time

We’ll see now that Joe Biden is going to be president of this country, I pray and I hope — yes, I’m going to be nasty about it — that they give him a hard time on the things that he wants to do just like they gave President Trump a hard time. And it’s only fair. Now that this group is in charge, people watch out for your bank accounts, because that’s next on their agenda — to take away what is yours.

Trump is a good man, not a liar

This is for all the people who say that President Trump does nothing but lie, lie, lie. That’s all he does is lie. You can’t believe anything he says. He lies. He’s a liar. Well, President Trump said that they’d have a vaccine before the end of the year was over. All the news media, except for Fox News, they all said it can’t be done. It’s impossible. Well, here we are, less than a year later, President Trump was right like he’s been right on a lot of things. He’s not a liar. He’s a good man.

Trump sold us out

The largest cyberattack against America just occurred, and Trump can’t even condemn Russia because Putin owns him. Way to put America first Mr. President. Trump is the antithesis of patriotic, a true Russian sympathizer who has sold us all out. Go ahead Trumpies, keep giving Don the Con all your money so he can pay off all his foreign debts, all except Putin, who he is forever indebted to. History will not be kind to Donnie, and deservedly so. The future will expose him for the piece of garbage he is.
