After the president’s annual physical, his doctor delivered the news: “Mr. President, the good news is that you have two sides of your brain. The bad news is that on the left side, there isn’t anything right, and on the right side, there isn’t anything left.”

 

Q: What’s the most unfair thing about American politics?
A: We get 50 choices for Miss America, but only two for the president of America

 

The opposite of “pro” is “con,” so the opposite of progress is … Congress.

The problem for Democrats is that, regardless of his personal attributes. his policies, for the most part, were sound and very much pro-America. That is why he is attractive to the GOP base and, more and more, the independent voters. Even minorities are looking his way, because the can see the Democrats do not have their best interests at heart.

 

Your babble about bigotry, racism, self-righteous intolerance and aversion to change is just that … babble. Joe Biden is far more of a racist than Donald Trump will ever be. His past pronouncements and voting history lay that out plain as day.  The Democrat Party is as racist as they come. Minorities have one use  and one use only … to elect and re-elect Democrats to Congress. So they lie, over-promise and do just enough to convince them that this time will be better. But it never is.

 

For a man you claim to have a divisive message, Donald Trump was particularly bad at discriminating against people. Rather it was the Democrats and the media that stoked division. The Occupy movement, BLM, Antifa are all Democrat-affiliated, all designed to divide the country, sow dissent and discontent.

 

As far a bipartisan coalition, Dingy Harry Reid (may his soul rot in Vegas) and Nancy Pelosi have seen to it that the Democrat Party will never again engage in substantive bipartisan politics. Oh, they’ll do enough round the fringes to make it appear that way, but nothing will get done. The idea of opposing a President Trump with a bipartisan coalition is pure delusion. It will never happen, because shared power is not enough. It has to be all or nothing.

 

You may despise Donald Trump and hate all that you believe that he stands for, but he never was and never will never be as bad as as another Democrat administration with the current crop of degenerate political hacks.

 

This administration, and the Obama regime it is attempting to replicate, weaponised the Alphabet agencies to persecute and prosecute whoever they saw as their opponents. The prosecutions of Donald Trump in 2023 and 2024 are such blatant election interference that more and more of the electorate are coming to see it for what it is. Trying to turn this country into more of a state-controlled hegemony may be what finally leads to the restitution of sanity and decency in Washington

 

And for all his business dealings, Donald Trump never sold out his country.  The Biden family business did that for years. Perhaps soon, the Washington machine will run out of ways to cover for them.

It is amazing that folks on the Left that always tell us how smart and educated they are fall for the gaslighting of the Democrats.

Yep, Trump U. was found guilty of fraud doing the same thing that every other university is doing.  Hmm, different levels of justice, I guess.  Anyway, the "good" universities just got the green light to raise tuition costs from our current petulant-in-chief occupant of the WH.  Whatever, if Trump is successful on appeal, the judge and the prosecutor should be open for personal liability.

Allow me to point out , despite its misleading name , it was just a business venture/ organization …not a school you compare it to.

 

He was facing RICO /racketeering  charges  ( paused by occupying the WH) so after years of delay in

2018 , he wrote a $ 25 million check to settle the class action and make it go away…pretty much what the strategy is on this go around,

How many people throw their money away at a traditional school for a worthless degree?  Why is Old Corrupt Petulant Joe using taxpayer money to cover for these schools so they can continue to bamboozle people?

For a brief moment I thought perhaps you saw the distinction between a bad business disguised as a bad school ..but on second thought..you are probably miffed at how rest of the country doesn’t not see your knight in shining armor

You have a fixation with Donald Trump that is wholly unhealthy and probably bad for your acne.

 

My issue with universities is that they create an unrealistic expectation in their prospective students and the mantra that you must get a college education to get ahead is destroying the work ethic this country used to possess.

 

We are some 650,000 skilled tradesmen short in the construction industry in this country. Rather than incurring a mountain of debt and struggling to find employment with a modern arts degree that is not worth the paper it’s printed on, a trades apprenticeship can leave you debt-free and earning well upward of $80K annually, with secure employment and good job prospects. Where is the encouragement to pursue a career in the skilled trades?

 

The drive to get a college degree is about money for the colleges, money and indoctrination. The efforts to pay off college debt by this administration are a blatant attempt to buy votes, with taxpayer money.

 

it’s just one big scam right now. Education has got nothing to do with it.

Not any longer, thanks to Bidementia's prescient foresight in allowing millions of skilled illegals in!

But the vast majority of these illegal economic migrants are unskilled. We need plumbers, electricians, carpenters, masons, etc.

Perhaps, but they're cheaper than skilled U.S. hires.

The point is you are making political decisions solely on a personality.  It is interesting that  Trump was a darling of the establishment/Left when he was funneling money into their campaign chests, but of course now, he must be ruined as he is a threat to that very establishment.  
 

Personally I do not like Trump, but when you get past the narrative concocted by the DC Establishment and their allies in the Leftist MSM one can see his policies are what is needed.  What is the alternative, more division, more elite leadership in DC, more dependence on DC.  It is time to decentralize the Federal government, spread the agencies out of DC and let the DC career bureaucrats really experience the country from outside the bubble of the beltway.  Biden is the embodiment of the Establishment hence I hate him way more than Trump.
