Fourth term of Obama
So, the illegitimate socialist puppet says that he is running for the fourth term of Obama. This corrupt tyrant is ruling with illegal executive orders which are ruining our country. How can anyone vote for someone who should be on trial for treason for selling our strategic oil reserves to China to get more money for his corrupt family? This clown and his Cabinet are the worst administration in history. They have caused hyperinflation, destroyed our border and ruined our economy with their ridiculous green energy policies. The puppet claims he is saving the soul of our country when he is, in fact, ruining the soul of our country by weaponizing the DOJ and FBI, getting us into a proxy war with Russia and allowing men to injure women by participating in their sports. The Democrats have already rigged this election by eliminating the primary debates, so they are quite comfortable with their puppet doing the bidding of his masters.

Justice too slow
On Nov. 5, 2009, radicalized Army psychiatrist Nidal Hasan walked into a building at Fort Hood in Killeen, Texas, and killed 12 soldiers, and one civilian. He also injured over 30. He used magazines in a rapid-fire pistol that held 20 and 30 bullets. In less than 10 minutes, he shot 177 bullets. In August 2013, almost four years later, he was found guilty of 13 premeditated murders at his court martial, and sentenced to death. He was shot by police and paralyzed from the waist down. He currently — still — awaits execution at Leavenworth, a military prison in Kansas. Justice in this case has moved too slowly.
Wasted money
You Republicans are unbelievable. You’ll say anything, without any regard for truth, or facts, or even reality. You said Hillary got away with her so-called crimes because “they” had the House and Senate. Republicans wasted $82 million on four Clinton-related scandals they promoted, only to have an independent council conclude there was not enough evidence to bring any charges. After that failure, they wasted another $22 million on 10 congressional hearings into Benghazi, six of them when Republicans were in control of the House. And again, they found nothing they could “get” her with. Hillary didn’t get away with lying. Republicans got away with lying about Hillary, over and over again, and continue their lies to this day.
Come to your senses
For Trump followers to repeatedly say the election was stolen even to this day is pure insanity. Your own Republican Party members agreed that there was no fraud, and that the election was legitimate. So for you Fox News deniers to continue this lie, you’re just embarrassing yourself. Good grief, grow up and stop being a sore loser like the crybaby Trump. It’s over, so get over it already. Throwing a fit and stomping your damn feet isn’t going to change anything. Go to your room and stand in the corner until you come to your senses.
Split up the bills
Property taxes have gone so high that Lake County must be in first place for the nation. The tax bill should be made to be paid in quarterly payments rather than two payments. This would be like the old water bill in Waukegan, where it was paid every three months. Then the water fee went so high that it now has to be paid every month by a certain date or your water will be shut off.
Sad and scary
Just want to update the Trumpster who has been taken in by the con man himself. You claim Trump was elected by the people. Well in his run for president against Hillary Clinton he lost by almost 3 million popular votes — an example of the Electoral College being out of date. Trump’s run against Biden saw him lose the popular vote again, and this time by 7 million. Despite that, you claim he should now be the legitimate president? The man is not qualified or able, and he proved that when he was president. It is sad and scary that you cannot see that.
Evil man
Democrats are doing the right thing in wanting to investigate Clarence Thomas. He is on the Supreme Court, the highest court in the United States. They should be held to a higher standard that any other people in this country. As we all know, Clarence Thomas has no morals and should have never been appointed to the Supreme Court. The person who wants all the Bidens investigated should have made that comment about Trump and his family. The former president and his family made millions while he was in office. If it weren’t for the Democrats in this country and a couple of honest Republicans, the Jan. 6 insurrection would have been seen as a “visit to the White House” by people on vacation. We all know it was a riot caused by the former president. The man should never be allowed to run for president again. He opens his mouth and lies come out. He is an evil man.
