Complete loser

I find it completely ludicrous that your newspaper would have a front-page story, “Biden to highlight economic wins.” You know, I don’t know what is more moronic, Biden himself, or you for printing a story like that. Are you blind? Have you seen what has happened to us over the last two years, losing jobs, inflation at a 40-year high, gross domestic product in the toilet? And let’s state facts: If you hit rock bottom to zero, and then you go to one above zero, that is a positive increase. That doesn’t mean that things are good. So, this is the most ridiculous thing that I’ve seen in the longest time and, quite honestly, it shows how you’re insulting your readership. It doesn’t matter if you’re Republican or Democrat, everyone should know without question that Biden has not created any — and doesn’t need to highlight any — economic wins, any foreign policy wins, any trade wins or any wins at all. He has always been a complete loser.

Fore

This is in response to the post from one of Trump’s orange zombies about the spy balloons, in particular suggesting that Trump would have shot them down: Here’s a news flash for you. Three spy balloons flew over the United States during Trump’s term as president. Maybe he was golfing at the time and missed them.

Not worthy of executive privilege

Former Vice President Mike Pence has been subpoenaed by special counsel Jack Smith to appear before a grand jury regarding his knowledge about the events of Jan. 6, 2021. The legal team of former President Donald Trump considers opposing the subpoena based on the concept of “executive privilege,” which protects conversations between the active president and his advisors. The business of the United States in relation to important topics deserve to be protected under “executive privilege.” Discussions on trying to convince his vice president to unconstitutionally help him overthrow a fair election does not qualify for executive privilege.

In cahoots

We will never hear the real story behind the flying objects as long as Biden is in office. The whole Biden family is in cahoots with China, and are collecting money from China for who knows what. The real truth will never be revealed because it would expose the Democratic Party as an adjunct to the socialist/Communist Party.

Zero

To the gentleman who called in about lowering taxes: The reason your taxes are so high basically is because of the schools. They are funded by your local taxes. That is why your taxes are so high. I know you say cut taxes. Where are you going to cut it? Half the people have children in school. They want to make the schools better. So, they’ve got to keep raising more money, which means your taxes keep going up and up. You say cut taxes, where are you going to cut? You’re a typical Republican who screams to cut taxes, but when you are asked where are you cutting, you say nothing. You’re quiet like your typical Republicans. They have nothing for a policy. Zero.
