No getting our country back

Our values for our future generations are in the garbage can. Front page yesterday: Democrats won again across the board on the school boards. What is the matter with you voters? You don’t see what’s going on in this country? It doesn’t bother you that they put these trashy books in the libraries for little kids to read? How to be transgender. These are the kind of books they are putting in our libraries, and you people just keep putting these Democrats in. Tampons in the men’s bathroom? Boys can use the girls locker room and shower with these girls? The GOP barely took back the House as you’re watching your country crumble under your feet. You just keep putting these idiots in office. There’s no getting our country back.

Love the country

I love Elon Musk. The man is a supersmart millionaire, and people just like him because he tells the truth. And he is right, this administration that we have running this country will run this country down to the ground. They don’t believe in personal wealth. They don’t believe in personal freedom. They don’t believe in your right to speak your mind. I hate to give my money to this country. I don’t go to Chicago. I refuse to give my pennies to Chicago, but when are people going to actually wake up and love the country and love its people.

What you are

This is to the reality-challenged Republican who called in about the cracks in our government. There is no sleeping president. He’s doing fine. There are no small fires. There’s nothing going wrong in this country. Unemployment is at the bottom. Employment is going full-bore. Everything is coming together. It’s all fine. Our money is fine. Everyone loves our money. Everybody would love to have dollars. So our currency is the best in the world. No matter what. We are strong already now. You’re the crackpots in our government. That’s what you are.

She lied

They never let up. You act like Hillary Clinton wasn’t guilty of anything. Excuse me. What did the man from the moon come in and destroy 33,000 emails that she was ordered by Congress to turn over, and she still had the nerve to destroy them. And let’s not forget what she did in Benghazi, and she lied and got away with it. There was no video. She lied. She told the truth to her family in an email, but lied to the American people because in 60 days we were having an election. Don’t act like Clinton didn’t do anything wrong. She just got away with it because they had the House. They had the Senate. She got away with horrible crimes in Benghazi, and lying to the American people again and again under oath.
