that is YOUR fault.


YOU keep voting RED, and that is why YOUR state failed to provide YOU the same benefits MY state would give to me...

do YOU understand Katy, if were not earning a lot and lived in state like WA you would get a massive discount on your insurance bill.


let me repeat that for ya katy..


If you stop voting red you would get the same get treatment AMERICANS in LIBERAL states get under obamacare.....

ie instead of paying 1000 2000 per month for a family, you would be paying a mere fraction of that, 100, 200 etc depending various issues.


The only reason you were not eligible is because you earned over 100 k a year or lived in a red state that hates you.

At Mexico's expense. You left out that little tidbit.

Thanks for being honest.

Most of those people that are Republican voted for him because he is Republican.

Do Democrats understand that the main reason Trump got elected POTUS was to build the Mexican Border Wall?


Actually, the main reason he was elected, was to be "a new sheriff in town", expressly brought in to stop the constant abuses, lies, and illegal legislation of the Democrats. A gunslinger to challenge, fight, and wipe out the bad guys. Nobody has to like the gunslinger, or even believe he is going to be fair. In fact the voters want him to be every bit as unfair as the Democrats have, and beat them at it, and get rid of them.

Once the gunslinger hired in an old-west town was finished and the bad guys driven out or relegated to irrelevance, the voters probably won't want him around any more, and will likely get rid of him. But for eight years, they DO want him running things... because he's there to stop people who are a lot worse.

And by the way, they also want him to build the Wall.

But make no mistake, the reason they elected him, was because he said "I will build the border wall, no matter whether the Democrats like it or not."

The voters liked his wall. But they liked his attitude even more. And that's why he was elected.

Do Trumplings grasp that tRump's GOP completely owns the federal govt?

They don't need squat from Dems to build their wall.

They've had two years so far and haven't even as much as laid the first brick.

How come they're stalling?

Lots of people voted for Obama because he said he would close Guantanamo.

How’d that work out?
