So the country elected a worthless piece of garbage that has been on the wrong side during his entire career. He and his family are as crooked as they come and liars to boot. Look at Hunter and realize that the apple does not fall far from the tree.He let's others dictate what he does and the country is rapidly going down hill for his actions.
I am retired and living on a fixed income, watching my savings dwindle. Everything has escalated in price on his watch.We are in a very precarious position because of his weakness. I'm not rich, but I fear for the poor trying to make ends meet. We have strayed away from religion, with the likes of the gay movement, abortion, teaching sex to 5 year olds and questioning if they are the right sex. Inter racial marriage is being touted as normal.
I fear for the future of the country and my children and grandchildren. He talks about gun control instead of addressing the real issue. He blames every one else but himself. the man is a TRAITOR to the U.S. and belongs in jail !!!!!

It was definately pre obama -- but -- yes he knew how to divide us ------- just look at obama care.


Not even so much Obamacare, imo. That was and is a disastrous policy. But what really set the division in stone, imo, was his comments on the Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown shootings. He didn't have to inject himself into those issues. He could have offered prayers for the families and moved on. But instead he chose to speechify on how if he had a son he would look just like Trayvon. And on how the death of a murderous thug charging a police officer "stains the heart of black children" and that is was "heartbreaking." Racial division was at the lowest I'd ever seen in my lifetime until Obama made those comments.

Anyone remember the quote "hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, and weak men create hard times"?

I know where we are in that cycle and it is safe to assume we are in for some hard times.

It is amazing to me, how the Democrats Covid politics destroyed a good economy. What is shocking to me is the prolferation of Democrat Socialists and people that are outspokenly against capitalism. Sadly, immigrants are more inclined to protect the American dream than some of the spoiled Americans. They know what its like to try to make a living outside America and Canada.

I should find this comment appalling. But what I find appalling is that I don't disagree with it.

Many many politicians start out as lawyers.

Coincidence?

I admit that I didn't read the previous post.
I have owned my own business 22 years but this could very well be my last.
The only reason that we are still going is because I have 5 employees with 15 years plus invested in this company and I'm keeping it going for them.
The market is so volitile that we can not lock in a price for components on purchase orders. The price is"to be deduced the day of manufacturing".
Freight cost have tripled in the last six months.
Everyone complains about the gas prices but you see that immediately,. Does anyone else notice that you can put 100 dollars worth of groceries in the hand tote basket?
I don't know how people on fixed income will be able to make it this year. If you heat your house with oil and have a 250 gallon tank you are looking at 1500 hundred bucks to fill your tank.
Totally rediculous, and unfounded.

Between covid and what is going on now many small business owners have been put out of business. More goes to big business which is what the liberals want. Less ability to be independent.

Why is it that it is automatically something the libtards want when small business suffers? One of the biggest reasons for high inflation right now is how capitalism has allowed certain large companies to completely control the market in their niche. Yes, certain “liberal” restrictions, even the ones imposed when you had your previous president in charge, sure hurt small business but it’s corporate greed putting their foot on their necks right now.

Why is it impossible for some to see that neither side is really for the small business? Is confirmation bias the thing to blame for this or is there something more that I do not understand? Facts only please.

down the crapper. everything did a 180. the dem's did a great job at telling the sheeple via media that trump is the devil so now they put this clown in power who has done nothing but push the country off of a cliff. The worst part is these people are so blinded they think we are heading in the right direction and state "At least its not Trump" I actually had one person state(talking about the increase of costs of everything) that they dont mind paying more because everyone got a big pay raise and is making more money. NOT EVERYONE!!! and when you subtract the additional cost of living they are actually making less than they were 3 years ago. BUT, at least trump isnt in there SMFH.

first they divide us, now they will starve us or at least most of us, the only thing left is disarm and we have 0 chance at standing up. anyone now that is not growing and raising their own food is behind the curve. luckily we have been doing it for years! now you just have to be able to protect it when those that cant come wanting to take. im still hoping it doesnt get this bad but if things dont change in the next 2-3 years Im afraid it will come to this.
