With Trump I have also found out just how horrible and nasty my Left leaning former friends and family can be. Who needs them?

With Trump we have also seen how spiteful and back stabbing our politicians can be. DC truly is a swamp. Trump has been brave enough to call out major problems in America such as trade deficits and the crisis at the border but for doing so he is called all sorts of names.

With Trump, as bad and as un presidential he can be I believe that he gave America a reprieve from the bumpy road that the Dems were taking us all down but my fear is that the Dems will soon have us back on the road and heading for the cliff especially now that the Lefty Extremists have taken the center stage.


With Trump I have hope for the future whereas with Hillary and now the current crop of Lefty hopefuls I see none.

Gee, Thanks I guess, if you were not being sarcastic but you can call it fiction if you like because it is my opinion gleaned from my personal experience and my beliefs.



Despite what the Left told us would happen if Trump was elected the earth is still spining and I am open minded enough to admit that if Hillary had won that the earth would still be spinning. The only difference of course would be that the media would be busy downplaying her questionable practices and policies while highlighting her accomplishments just as they did with presenting the Obama package.



My opinions are actually non fiction because as turbulent as the Trump administration has been I really do feel that America as a whole is better off that he won the election but the media to spite him is telling us otherwise.

I think my life has felt about the same before he became POTUS, except I am no longer regularly employed. However, that has more to do with the economy and me having the job skills/experience.

It's called made up stories.


I laugh at all the posts on here, all fictional stories. So obvious.

That's not exactly a ringing endorsement is it?

The best thing you can find to say about Trump is, he's not someone else? High praise indeed, how proud you must be.

I know. That's exactly what I've been thinking. Half of them spend 24/7 on C-D and we can assume they're not being paid for that.
Doubled their income? What were they doing before? Nothing? LOL.

Lol, right? They have absolutely no standards, probably because they have no standards for themselves. Zero self pride.

Really? What tax bracket are you in that you received a massive tax hike?

I'm not a Trump supporter, but I was definitely happy that Hillary Clinton lost. Not because I thought Trump was really going to change anything. But because Hillary Clinton represented everything that every decent American should despise.

Every sane man realized Trump would never be allowed to drain the swamp, or to even change our immigration policy(and that assumes he even wanted to in the first place). But his victory was the only way to show just how angry people were with how the country is being run.

I wish conservatives could have continued to channel that anger instead of being forced to play stupid politics.

"So obviously fictional".

Just spoke with DD...she and her FIL are spending their Sunday morning painting her newly expanded and renovated laundry room, one of many improvements planned for her 19th century farm house. She doesn't have to hop in her new van to drive to her business today, because her expanded sales staff have everything covered. Her DH is sleeping late because he was out late last night servicing a client's computers (his side business). That's why he isn't helping with the painting. Five-year-old grandson is working on a computer math tutorial...he's completed the Kindergarten math curriculum at his private school and his math instructors have transferred him into first grade math (which wouldn't have happened in his local public school). He just joined his school's chess club (that wouldn't have happened in his local public school either...their elementary school doesn't HAVE a chess club).

DH is out scouting the car lots for his new pickup. I spent two hours at the gym, thanks to my new 12 month membership. I'll be working a sports banquet on Wednesday night (I'm a school cafeteria cook), which will far exceed the former 29-hour cap. .

What's so hard to believe? Do you want me to post photos of my daughter's new van and my new jeans? Grandson's report card?

All this happened under President Trump's administration. May be a correlation, may be not. All I know is, we didn't have all this under Obama.

Are you actually saying this with a straight face?
"Hillary Clinton represented everything that every decent American should despise". But Trump was the epitome of goodness and decency I suppose?
Jesus. It's a sorry state of affairs when this is the best America has got.
