Problem at the border

We’re having a problem at the border. We have thousands of people at the border. They are cold and freezing. No food. No place to stay. Over a thousand. They have no business in this country, if we are not able to provide sufficient locations for them. So I suggest that the Democrats give out your fancy little homes, and maybe you should be able to put these folks up in your residences, or rental properties, or extra homes that you have. What is wrong with this administration? What is wrong with the people here in the United States? We’re having a humanitarian crisis that we are not capable of handling. There’s only so much the American people can put up with, and so much that you can take from the American people.

Living the lie

To “Have some respect” who is gullible enough to vote for a demented man, and commit elder abuse just by doing so. How is it possible for Mr. “one gaffe after another” to legitimately get more votes than Obama did in 2008? I don’t think so. The proof of election fraud lies in firsthand testimony, geolocation tracking of cellphones and actual film from election drop boxes. What is true? We know that truth is not a leftist value, so maybe you are the one living the lie.

We’re doomed

After reading the entries in the Talk of the County it is apparent that, sadly, we have numerous individuals that are still suffering — and I mean suffering — from the Trump Derangement Syndrome. I can’t believe that all you anti-Trump individuals think we are far better off now with Biden than we were under the Trump administration. Higher prices on everything, thousands of illegals coming across the border and into our country every day, crime out of control, another military intervention with the possibility of a world war and the lies that are being exposed that the news media fed us prior to the last two elections. Well, we are going to have to pay for all this for the rest of our lives. Prices will never come down on anything, and the election results will never change as it is apparent that there are more individuals getting free stuff than there are working people paying taxes. We’re doomed.

Good for America

One of the challenges we all face as we age is to continue to add new information and measure it against older, established and accepted norms. Since many people can’t or won’t do this, politicians will continue to use fear to manipulate us into voting against policies proposed by the other party that ironically will be good for America.

When do you represent us?

As we see daily in the news, all we hear about is investigation into this and then that. So I ask you and all of our representatives, both Democrat and Republican, when do you represent us who elected you?
