Like I told MACS last week when we disagreed, I still loved his emotion and passion for our country.
I challenge you to post just 3 lunatic things from the right.
Just to keep you from going too deep under the ether. I was concerned you have been blinded when you posted you will never vote for another Dem evah again! Evah!
I didn't vote Dem last election, so far not gonna next time either cuz all I see for a platform is Not Trump...but all I saw last time for a GOP platform that began one day into Obama's term was not Obama.
Surely that must lead to at least SOME right wing lunacy in your eyes...no?
Voting is a duty to not take lightly. Especially now. When a party can steal away an election from a favorable candidate and there no ramifications then how can you trust that party? The manner in which the Clintons have used the party and government agencies needs to be addressed and punishment doled out, otherwise another will follow the same footsteps to obtain what they seek.
I did post that I won't be voting for another Democrat ever again. I meant that. The party represents nothing I believe in. They're not for the "working man", they cannot pass single page common sense legislation and are complacent in doing absolutely nothing. 8 years they were fine ramming down a shoddy healthcare bill that over 70% of Americans stated they didn't want. They played parliamentary games to get bills where they wanted and shoved it down our throats. It was exactly what the GOP said the bill was too. Everyone saw their rates go up, Big Pharma raised their prices by hundreds and and even into the thousands of percents because they could. There were those that couldn't even afford Obamacare and those that lost their healthcare altogether but that didn't stop the Democrats from doing what they wanted with abject jubilee. I can go on and on and on and have here on a host of issues but what's the point? Its exactly like Ronald Reagan exclaimed,
“I didn’t leave the Democratic party, the Democratic Party left me.”. They have nothing for me, nothing. There used to be at least one that I could say is doing a good job, there hasn't been one in over 15 years on the national level. Locally, thats a bit different because they HAVE to interact with their community.
As for 3 examples...I'll bite. It's pretty easy for me.
1 - Trump's Twitter machine. Take it away, shut it off while he's President. It's not honorable of the Office and it doesn't set a tone measurable with the respect of it. I'd expect the Leader of the Free World to be a bit above it. Trump is a TV personality who's larger than life and he cannot let that go. There are times where I wince and there are times I laugh, but I don't think it's something a President should do.
2 - Jeff Sessions. He needs to be fired. He's a complete and utter joke in everything he does. EVERYTHING. He's a transgender Granny Clampett spreading his religious beliefs like some sacred Johnny Appleseed. He's over his head and it shows. He is diametrically opposed to almost everything America needs and wants.
3 - Speaker of the House Paul Ryan. A one time VP candidate and possible Presidential candidate. Not any more. Put a fork in him, nobody likes a quitter. Nobody likes a Do-Nothing too. Worthless POS that decides now that he wants to be a stay at home dad? Creating a power vacuum in a time like this? He is what Hillary called a "Deplorable". Can't even pull his party to enact legislation and wants to just do nothing once they obtained all 3 branches. Unbelievable. So much could've been done, instead its trench warfare they settle on. It's pathetic and laughable at the same time.
I could write plot lines and sketches for Mel Brooks just based on those 3 and have almost a movie!
