Giving a fair warning to the Left? Yeah, right. I mean, like that is going to be really effective.

The "woke" have done exactly that.

As an Independent, a true registered Libertarian (not a pretend I), I can tell you with resolve that you have lost the 2020 elections.


Bash bros - bring it on. Save this post to pound me in 11 months.


It is what it is and I can't wait to see heads exploding.


carry on
Thanks for sharing.

True for most, but not me! I self-insured for 3 years using a sizeable HSA, never bought Obamacare, never paid ANY penalty's, and today have coverage again thx to Trump.

I'm an unusual case though, so your point is vaild.

NOBODY is forgetting the HUGE Obamacare lies either. Keep you Doctor, keep your coverage, save money.

That lie cost Americans Billions, and today 10% (23,000,000) are still w/o healthcare insurance. At the outset of Obamacare, it was 15%. So he blew up the entire system to gain 5%, and made us all go through h$%ll. That was just a small preview to single-payer socialized healthcare the Dems are still pushing.

Oh, and the Obamacare website crashed costing us $145M too. Remember he outsourced that no bid contract to a Canadian company who was owned by a colege pal of Michelle's. Barry had to beg AMERICANS in Silicon valey to bail him out of that calamity. FAILURE ERROR 404...remember?

I am fully aware that Trump may very well get elected. My head won't explode though, as he's not worth that much trouble, lol. However, I am satisfied that he is now and forever impeached, and will have that stain on his legacy. The Dems did the right thing, trying to throw a road block in front of him to at least slow down his criminal, thuggish ways. Hopefully, he'll think twice before trying to extort another country like he did Ukraine. Or maybe he won't. But at least they were able to impeach him for this abuse of office, and I am satisfied.

More than Trump or anyone else, my biggest concern is with the environment and the chaos we are experiencing with climate change. Everybody should be worried about that, as we are all going to be or have already been affected. Trump is just a person who will eventually be off of the scene. He can cause a lot of damage while he's in office, but it will be what it will be. I will continue to live my life the best I can and not allow his toxic actions to affect my peace of mind. Thankfully, most of what he has done or has proposed to do so far doesn't affect me. However, I do feel terribly for those who are affected, like immigrants and children separated from their parents, loss of healthcare and aid for the needy, rollbacks of clean water and air regulations, discrimination against the LGBTQ folks, trying to overturn women's right to choose, stuff like that.

I'm thrilled with Obamacare. Many millions just like me now have insurance they can afford. You can bash it all you want. It's not perfect for sure, but it sure is a helluva lot more affordable and better for me than any employer-provided healthcare I had over decades of working.

I'm excited that they awoke a sleeping giant by pushing too quickly for gun control.

Agreed.

Out here in the Northeast, Obamacare is expensive. Bronze plan example is close to 400 dollars without the advanced tax credit. I'm happy with my employer sponsored health insurance which covered majority of my health needs with a health-scare I had last year. But not for nothing, any insurance is better than no insurance. Something needs to be done with healthcare in this country. Prices are through the roof.

Totally agree with you, Check. Big pharma and the insurance companies are making billions. It's ridiculous that a country this rich has such a horrible healthcare system. When I had employer-provided healthcare, mine was reasonable, but I couldn't afford to add my husband. The price was exorbitant.

Well citizen disarmament is just a piece of the plan. It is becoming more and more important to that plan but more important pieces need to be put together before that can be pushed the way they want to.

Trump isnt even out of the way and they need that more than anything. If things had blown up in Richmond the way the Dems and their neo leftist cronies wanted they might have been able to kick of a test bed.

It didn't turn out the way they wanted at all. Not for lack of trying. If the election goes the way I think it will and Trump gets another term I believe the Dems are counting on their leftist disciples to kick off major rioting and mayhem.

Places like Berkeley will be going up in flames for sure but this go I think they just might try to export their product out of the cities as well. Try to go after us deplorables where we live.

That will not go well for them. But the derangement these people suffer from wont allow rational thought to function. I fear things will turn really ugly in November. I hope I'm wrong. I really do.

I'm in no itching hurry to see the bloodshed those fruit loops are capable of starting with their blind hatred. Nothing worse than nutcases that think their right with God.
