Be intelligent
When extraterrestrials start searching the universe for intelligent life, they won’t be contacting planet Earth. Much of the intelligent life in America disappeared during the Trump presidency. And yet the lies, brainwashing and misinformation persist. Be intelligent. Stop embracing the nonsense.
Double standard
So they sentence Steve Bannon to four months in jail for refusing to answer a bogus subpoena, when they did nothing to Democrats Eric Holder and Lois Lerner for doing the same thing. Merrick Garland needs to be impeached for this double standard of justice.
Not good for democracy
If MAGA is so good for the economy, why don’t they have any ideas for bringing down inflation? If MAGA thinks it is so right for America, why does it have to resort to Roger Stone-style dirty tricks to discourage voters on the other side? If MAGA thinks poll watchers are so necessary, why are they armed and masked? Doesn’t hiding your identity suggest that you know what you are doing is wrong? Yes, wrong and not good for democracy.
Book for dummies
What’s to understand about gas prices in Texas, Mississippi and Arkansas versus Illinois? Let your fingers do the walking. Look up the population, how many miles of roads (don’t count the dirt roads) and poverty levels of each state. How much traffic is wearing down respective roads. Move there if you can’t figure it out. The book for dummies might be out of your reading level.
Giving back
To the fool that doesn’t think Republicans will be giving back the $300 checks, or whatever they were — you are so very wrong. Everyone of us will be giving it back in future tax increases, unless we move. The only people thinking they are better off with Biden and Pritzker are those living off the government, or at least getting handouts.
Soon there will be fewer
There are not enough Republicans to take care of all you Democrats. That is why this state is so far in debt, and soon there will be fewer.
Literally nothing
Let’s get rid of some of these career politicians that have done nothing in Illinois. Literally nothing. They do the minimal. And they bring that out during their elections. These folks are career people that have no intentions on doing anything better for the state of Illinois. It’s an embarrassment to live in Illinois.
