Pray to God

Two thumbs up to the person who wrote, “Who’s the fascist now?” Trump was the best president this country had since FDR, and he’s up there with them. And I hope by the grace of God that Trump returns in 2024 and saves this country, because we are going to heck in a handbasket. Pray to God Trump for 2024.

He’s done nothing

I am a Republican, and I always will be a Republican, and I am fully vaccinated. Where do the Democrats spread these lies about Republicans not being vaccinated? They need to start helping the American people, instead of trying to tear America down. If you vote Republican, America will be built up again. Let’s get rid of Joe Biden. He’s done nothing for us.

You’re still here

To all you people out there who believe in abortion: All I have to tell you is, how come you’re still here if you still believe in abortion. Apparently, you believe in life, that’s why you’re still here.

What a laugh

To the writer who thinks Trump was the best president of all time: i\\In my lifetime, there have been better presidents. Trump thinks only of himself, not the people. He wants to be like Putin, a dictator, and have us all bow down to him. What a laugh.

Magic carpet made of asphalt

I just wanted to give simple high-fives to the company that paved Sheridan Road, all the way from the Wisconsin state line to Greenwood Avenue in Waukegan. This company is unbelievable. They’ve got their act together. They tore up the old asphalt. They had the new asphalt re-laid almost as fast as they were tearing up the old. All the striping is done, and we get to ride on our father’s magic carpet made of asphalt. It’s very smooth. Thank you very much.

It’s a crying shame

I read that some police officers were without pay because they are not vaccinated. Good. I hope that anybody that doesn’t get the shots doesn’t get a dime. They’re in the public service. That’s tough. If they don’t want the vaccine, then leave. It’s a crying shame. It should be mandated. I don’t care if they don’t want it or not. People that are not vaccinated are causing the trouble. The other thing is these poor nurses are worn out.

Quite comical

I commented to my wife about 800,000-plus being dead and I chuckled a little. My wife said that’s not funny. And I said, you’re right, that’s not funny. The number 800,000 is not funny, but the ignorance of the anti-vaxxers is quite comical.
