Ill just say this. My opinions are based on how I am impacted. If you love record gas prices, inflation across the board and the fact your 401K is down easily 30% and we now have 3m+ new illegals being fed/housed in this country for free, schools failing, crime is at all time highs, drug overdoses at record levels and getting worse and think the US government spying on a political opponent is fine and what bathroom someone uses is really a high priority... then you are happy and think this "crew" is doing a great job.

Remember this, the best policies will satisfy about 70% of people with 30% (the radical 15-20% on BOTH sides) being unhappy. It isnt about who has 51% or yelling at someone to agree with you. The country is divided ALL sides need to give a little vs. being bullied I really hope for a divided Congress and instead of blaming gridlock, vote out the radicals who refuse to compromise and focus on facts/results, not ideologies. THAT is why the Constitution was written that way...Separation of Powers and gradual change, NOT "transformational" or radical waves.

I agree with everything you say Creeper, especially the first paragraph. While I do agree with the 2nd, I'm afraid the radicals on either side won't be voted out for the most part.

I don't deny that climate change exists. It has been changing for 4.5 billion years. We don't know how much of that is attributed to man and our machine age. I believe we should strive to do better. I look back to when in the late 60's and early 70's, the infancy of the EPA, when Lake Erie was a polluted mess. We've come a long way through recycling and awareness to clean up our land, water and sky. Technology is coming along. What I don't agree with is to insist we make drastic changes without the replacement in place. We need more time, a more gradual implementation of what to do next, instead of bankrupting our society in order to achieve what we don't yet have. Making decree through political theater when the infrastructure clearly isn't ready is a kneejerk reaction. We need better leadership than what we have. Please tell me this isn't the best we can come up with.

Friends. I think your both insane. And calling our POTUS Brandon (knowing what it means!) is offensive and Un-American.
You both know better. And should be paying attention because the truth is about to "hit the fan" regarding your hero Trump.
He, quite frankly, should literally be hung for an attempted coup on our Country and Constitution!!

It's quite obvious you are NOT paying attention to what Liz Cheney (and the rest of the honest Republicans) are about to PROVE to you Trumptards!!

Biden is a whole nother matter.
BUT, he didn't try and overthrow OUR Government!
Like a crying little baby sore loser!!

Let's Go Brandon!

America’s presidents have endured meanness for centuries; Grover Cleveland faced chants of “Ma, Ma Where’s my Pa?” in the 1880s over rumors he’d fathered an illegitimate child. Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jackson were the subject of poems that leaned into racist tropes and allegations of bigamy.

“We have a sense of the dignity of the office of president that has consistently been violated to our horror over the course of American history,” said Cal Jillson, a politics expert and professor in the political science department at Southern Methodist University. “We never fail to be horrified by some new outrage.”

There were plenty of old outrages.

“F--- Trump” graffiti still marks many an overpass in Washington, D.C. George W. Bush had a shoe thrown in his face. Bill Clinton was criticized with such fervor that his most vocal critics were labeled the “Clinton crazies.”

The biggest difference, though, between the sentiments hurled at the Grover Clevelands of yore and modern politicians is the amplification they get on social media.

Name calling, no disputing the failure or providing any plan to resolve. And anyone who dares question the "narrative" is nuts and just wrong and anti-American, racist, homophobe, sexist, etc.

Bob...we are still friends in WIS. Just do not protest outside my house. It was more fun when we battled on the field.
