I so look forward to the day when we can go back to griping about normal things (celebrities, sports, etc) instead of wondering if the idiot in the White House will wreck our country through wars with former allies, through bad economic policy or by engaging in the mass extermination of our people.

Having a military parade is Trump's equivalent of the little boy pushing upward on the inside of his bicep to demonstrate how big his muscles are to those standing on the other side. It's the same tactic used by weak, tinpot dictators throughout history.

How much better off would our country be if the average American voter took a little time to understand their own positions on political matters and voted according instead of adhering to party loyalty and allowing others to dictate what they think about those same issues?

I'm beginning to think we need a constitutional amendment that would allow us to have recall elections like many other democracies. The only question after our last election is, do we have an electorate smart enough to exercise such a sweeping right?

The Trump administration's troop escalations concerning the L.A. immigration protests are starting to give off some eerie, Kent State vibes. I hope I'm wrong, but you know what they say about failure to learn from the past.

For those Christian Republicans out there: Jesus said suffer the little children not make the little children suffer. Just something I thought you might want to go back and read again because you have clearly misunderstood what it means.

Do you remember in our founding documents where it says, "we hold these truths to be self evident. Some men are created better than others.". I don't either! It's time we come together and purge our government of these elitists who are profiting from the labor of hard working Americans.

How did we as a country let being president of the United States go from being the most prestigious political office in the world to The Real Housewives of WTF?

Does anyone else find it ironic that Trump is "The immigration president" when his grandfather illegally crossed into Canada, ran a criminal enterprise (whore house) and returned south of the border, using his ill-gotten gains as the seed for the family fortune?

I remember being young and seeing someone obviously having a bad day and asking, "How's it going?". The response was always, "Living the dream baby, living the dream.". They had no idea how good they had it. Wouldn't it be wonderful if we didn't have any problems worse than those back then.

I keep hoping for the day that Republicans realize they can be conservatives without being evil, hate filled Nazis. If enough awaken to this fact, we may still have a hope of saving our country.

When you are young and fail to get a good education the system and our government have failed you. When you are an adult and continue failing to learn, refusing to learn or denying facts; that is a failure on your part. Education is the path to the best possible version of yourself.

Don't you just love the way the right claims to be taking our country back to its Christian values? This claim is made in a country where more of the founders were deists, agnostics and atheists than were Christians. Probably the reason they insisted on separation of church and state.

A senator said, "we are all going to die". While what she says is true, I'm reminded of the country song that said, "I want to go to heaven, but I don't want go tonight". How many venerable Americans are her and her party forcing into this situation if they successfully pass this awful bill?

It is heartbreaking that so many, otherwise, good Americans have willingly sold their souls to a madman for the low, low price of a cheap red hat.

When the scales finally fall from the eyes of Trump voters will they be like the Germans who were forced to visit Auschwitz and the other death camps, loudly proclaiming "I didn't know!". How many of these proclamations can we reasonably be expected to believe?

Do you need someone to tell you who you should hate? Who is alright to use the restroom? Which brand of beer is okay to drink? Who should live in your neighborhood? If you answered yes to any of these I bet you own a red cap.

In ancient Israel farmers were required to leave a certain percentage of their fields to provide food for the needy. So if taking care of the poor is a woke idea, then woke has exited for thousands of years.

For the maga Christians: are you aware that the first woke policies were enacted by the God of Israel? He required days off work and insisted on policies that provided aid to the poor, old, sick and disabled. Perhaps it's time you reread the old testament. You might be surprised by what you find.

It is alright to be conservative. Conservatives have always been the check when overzealous liberals propose something that might not be good for the country. It happens from time to time. What isn't right is being evil for evil's sake and trying to pass it off as being conservative.

Is it just me or is anyone else annoyed by news headlines that read, "Popular chain restaurant files for bankruptcy"? It annoys me because if they were popular they wouldn't need chapter 11.

I think a lot of people in this country should be reading George Orwell's "1984" and "Animal Farm" to understand what is happening right now. They teach that being a small fish in the ruling party doesn't make you safe. You will become dinner once the big fish has devoured the opposition.

I don't know which is more disturbing: that people seek office so they can inflict as much misery as possible on as many people as possible or that those most vulnerable to this misery keep voting them into office. It's not just Trump. The entire Republican leadership has become evil.

Anyone who has a temper tantrum like a two year old when anyone disagrees with them in the slightest should not be president. But here we are.

Everyone is laser focused on the free airplane story. Why isn't anyone talking about the billions in real estate deals he's made that never would have happened if not for the fact that he is the sitting United States president? 400 million is chump change compared to his other criminal activities.

In a country where ethics has been touted as a primary virtue, anything that even gives the appearance of potentially being seen as unethical should be avoided at all costs. A lot of our politicians in Washington should be giving this careful thought.

The demander in chief wants to put tariffs on movies now. He obviously doesn't realize that movies are intellectual properties and aren't subject to tariffs like commercial goods.

First he wanted to be the speaker of the house. It didn't happen. Then he tried to get himself named Pope. It didn't happen. What's next? Will he send seal team 6 out to eliminate Jesus Christ in an attempt to name himself god of the Christian faith?

It needs to be understood; this administration doesn't care about illegal immigration. It is just the pretext to get rid of as many brown people as possible. Legal or illegal, who cares? And if it gets rid of some blacks and non Christian whites, that's just a bonus.

A big shout-out to the three Republican senators who voted for a bill that would have limited Trump's ability to place tariffs. While the bill had no chance of ever becoming law, it is good to know that there are people on the Republican side willing to vote for the best interests of our country.

Can we change the name of our country from the United States of America to the Divided States of Dystopia?

With all the numbers in we are in a recession in every way except "officially". Trump blames these numbers on Joe Biden. Who is he going to blame 3 months from now when the numbers are only worse? Provided we still have a country to provide those numbers.

Some Democrats in Congress are calling for impeachment. For that to happen it has to come as a movement within the Republican party. They have to realize the disaster we are being led into. That will never happen as long as calls from the left cause them to rally around their man.

In 100 days we have gone from the preeminent power in world politics to a bad actor that needs to be avoided. In another 100 days we could be considered a rogue nation and find ourselves blockaded and crippled with sanctions. How long until congress sees we need to remove this threat?

It appears that Donald Trump just completed a very successful election campaign. Without his help it is possible the liberal candidate would not have won the Canadian election.

If you want to understand the chaos of the Trump presidency look toward Stephen Miller. He, much like Albert Speer in Germany, is very much the architect of this attempted new American Reich. He is very much the consistent source of evil whispering in Trump's ear since, at least, 2015.

A big shout-out to all the conservative federal judges who continue to prove the constitution is more important than party to them. And a big shame on you to the ones that don't.

I watched Star Trek(tos) during its original run and have enjoyed the many series that came afterwards. My one disappointment is that we never got a Sulu series. I suppose they could try it now but it won't be the same. For me Sulu will always and forever be George Takei.

Trump wanted Canada as the 51st state. Never going to happen. What did we lose as a result of his stupidity? The opportunity to be one of the 3 founding members of the American equivalent of the European Union. We had been moving closer and closer. Now it's gone for decades if not forever.

I grew up living with my grandparents. They were a young couple at the height of the great depression. I learned so many skills from them that are going to be absolutely necessary for continued survival over the coming months and years. I am so thankful now that I was a quiet and observant child.

The only way manufacturing jobs are coming back to America is if these can do the work cheaper here than people can over there. And the only way it will stay here is if these can do the work cheaper here than a different machine can over there.
