Thank you for combining all of his idiotic points in one. I especially like the no salary promise - it's immaterial and completely ignores the giant costs he's incurred to the taxpayers by playing golf all the time and forcing the military to stay at his hotels. 

 

Also, saying Merry Christmas is a giant issue with great repercussions. It's so meaningful and important. I remember before Trump everyone was afraid to say "Merry Christmas" lest they be sent to the gulag. You couldn't even tell it was Christmas time, no decorations, no Christmas songs starting in October, nothing. So happy that the Dear Leader took on this important issue and made it better.

So you were wrong when you stated Trump only kept one promise,  in fact he kept ALL 25 of his promises that he made in 2015.

 

The "idiotic" comment is troubling, you actually believe that it's "idiotic" to provide our Military Veterans access to filing complaints against the VA and improving their health care? That not cutting social security benefits from Americans who primarily live on Social Security is "Idiotic"? that adding funding for our Black colleges and Universities is "Idiotic"?  That saving American jobs is idiotic?

 

If you're way of thinking is representing of a Biden Presidency, God help us.

 

 

As for Trumps Salary and where he kindly donated 100% of it, please visit https://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/promises/trumpometer/promise/1341/take-no-salary/

 

I supposed you're going to tell us these contributions were 'idiotic" too. and that Biden's VP salary donation of ZERO dollars was brilliant.

If he did, they'd need a gurney attached to the golf cart.

Funny how you guys on the Left love to call him Bonespur but saying nothing about Asthama Joe. He got deferments for asthma all the while playing college football. 

Wasn’t an issue until ole Bonespur laid into McCain in the primaries then spent his administration insulting our military and military leadership.  I wasn’t surprised

at all he wanted to throw out as many military ballots as possible.

Also I don't think that McCain brought up his deferments but someone else did. Of course it didn't help him with reelection because the globalist lincoln project kept advertising and making stuff up about him

So much material, so little time

So  you are saying that as Democrats you can decide whose votes can be counted? Afraid not. Not in MY country

The Philadelphia city commissioner whose office is in charge of counting the votes in Philadelphia is Republican.  His name is Al Schmidt.  He has been receiving death threats from trumpers.

 

So in this case neither I nor he is a “democrat deciding whose votes can be counted”.  He is a Republican doing his job and you, I believe, may not be on the right side here if you believe things to be otherwise.

McCain was a terrible candidate.  Kept saying "Fight with me" when it was clear he was not fighting himself so it was not surprise he lost.  Btw, military ballots are always treated differently, and I don't believe anyone has been talking about not counting military ballots that are received and meet the special laws that cover them.

He may have been a terrible candidate however it was insulting and inappropriate to insult his record of service.

So you are saying that a public figure and career politician is immune to criticism?  The only person it was insulting to was John McCain himself, but I guess we cannot insult a career politician.

When you have so much hate for somebody and listen to one of the left wing networks (for what you believe is "news") and they report a damaging story about that person, the hater will believe it in its' entirety without a scintilla of proof, because they desperately want it to be true.. The one detrimental thing about being a hater is, you lose what little intellectual honesty you have left.

 

Yeah, Trump is a arrogant, trash talking New Yorker and he can be a jerk at times, I get it, it's not that appealing to a lot of people, especially Women, which worked against him in this election, but he's a successful jerk, one who genuinely cares about the welfare of the American people, he's the 2nd President in my lifetime who's actually followed through on his campaign promises, Reagan being the first,  Promises that I and the majority of Americans support.  What we'll get from a Biden Presidency is the same Democratic ways; No transparency, More Pay to Play, Higher taxation, Higher unemployement, Higher Gas and energy cost, More regulations that choke off business, more American companies moving operations overseas, Lower consumer confidence,  Higher crime rates, More illegals flooding our borders, Expressing weakness to the world,  A continuation of our failed public school system, depriving students of a quality education, the list goes on, and it's doubtful the mainstream media, who are propagandists will report on any of the above, and if they do, they'll blame it on Trump. 

 

All Republicans can do is look toward 2022, when Republicans win control of the House, increase their number in the Senate, handing Biden a lame duck Presidency for his last 2 years in office.

 

 

 

 

Man this is a very odd thing to say, i thought you all would want everyone to work together? No? 

 

So you think when GOP controls Congress and not allowing anything to be passed to shove it to the President/Dems, that is the way the country should go forward? McConnell had done that to Obama , and did you cheer for that? 

 

 

And then the hypocrisy when Amy was rushed to be sworn in, probably thinking of this situation where they wanna push cases to go to Supreme Court so that the odds would be for them for any cases..

 

I fixed this for you.
