A little bit of a con man
This is in regards to “Embarrassed from being conned”: Anybody over 50 years old in this country who voted for Trump knew exactly what they were getting. They knew he was a playboy. They knew he told little lies, and they knew about his shady real estate dealings. And they knew that possibly he was a little bit of a con man in his personal life. But, we also knew this as voters. We knew that Donald Trump loved this country. I personally knew that what this country needed was a businessman with no ties to politicians. He owed them nothing. And look where he took this country in four years. The greatest economy this country has ever seen. He stopped all the illegal immigration. Lowest gas prices. Jobs, jobs, jobs. And yet you Democrats still aren’t appreciative of him. Instead, you put a crook Biden in there. What about Biden and his son and all the shady junk that goes on?
Not really for law and order
I read “Joe Biden is in a bind on crime” by William Galston of the Wall Street Journal. It reminds me that we’re gearing up for the midterm elections, so Democrats have to pull out their deceitful magic trick and pretend that they are for police after denigrating them. They want to show that they are for law and order after the Antifa and BLM riots, oops I mean peaceful protests. It is the Democrats who are the totalitarianists, not the hardworking, dumped-on citizens of our countries.
Ridiculous
How about setting up term limits in Congress for all these political positions, including speaker of the House, and give everybody else a chance to put their ideas out there? It’s ridiculous.
Keep up the good work
I’d like to just commend Maritza Escamilia on her effort to teach cursive writing. It is a state mandate for the lower levels — like third grade or second grade — but most teachers don’t continue teaching the kids. I taught in Libertyville, Highland Middle School, for many years. It was a requirement in my class, and I taught sixth grade. Cursive should be a requirement not just in third grade, but continued. But I do commend this young lady for what she is doing, and being involved in her community. It’s a wonderful, wonderful skill. A lost skill unfortunately. I wish there was more of it. So, keep up the good work.
Doing everything wrong
Our President Trump — yes, our President Trump — did a heck of a good job being the president. In fact, it was the Democrats that were doing everything wrong. They set this president up. Set him up to fail, period. And the things that are going on now will all come out, and hopefully they’ll be able to indict a bunch of these Democrats that set our President Trump up. This should never, ever happen in our country. Never.
Look it up
Can I make a suggestion to our people in the United States? Look it up if you want the truth, truthsocial.com. Because the mainstream media will not print or put any of this stuff out there, so people can see the truth and hear the truth.

Lost all faith
The end of our democracy came when we voted in the crazy progressive Democrats. Yes, the Democrats. I feel we have lost, I have lost, all faith in our government with all the lies that they’ve pulled, and the disrespect that they had on our last president. That, my friends, is the loss of democracy in our country, the good old USA.
