It’s that simple

Trump should blame himself, his fellow Republicans and Trump followers with their bad behavior, and the continuation to lie to the American people. Just think, if Trump just told the truth, encouraged mask wearing and set an example, he might have won the election and saved 100,000 lives or more. All he had to do was tell the truth, not demonize the other party and divide the country. All he had to do was be a president for all Americans, and not wish harm on Americans who did not vote for him.

Miserable life

Critiquing someone who donated $1 million towards a coronavirus vaccine is shallow, almost as shallow as your math was in that statement. I’m guessing you didn’t donate a penny. Have fun with the rest of your miserable life.

Did not cheat

Democrats did not cheat, nor did they steal the election. They vote, which is their constitutional right.  The only reason Trump lost is because less Republicans voted for him. More Democrats, many Republicans and independents voted for Biden.

Referendum on Trump

This was a referendum on Trump, and his lies. Which is what the Republican Senate told Americans to do during the impeachment hearings, since they’ll failed to their jobs.

Have to laugh

I have to laugh at Biden. He is calling for unity now after the United States has endured four years of the Democrats’ false accusations that cost taxpayers millions of dollars. It is a miracle that Trump was able to complete all that he did — more than any Democrat did in office.

Enough is enough

After a long week’s work, there’s a great sound I enjoy hearing to wake me up, and that’s a big barking dog which wakes the entire neighborhood surrounding that home. Today was no exception At 7 a.m., barking like crazy. Don’t you have any respect for your neighbors, who need their sleep either because of work or perhaps they are ill and need to sleep? If you need to let your dog out, get your butt out there with them to avoid having them bark and bark. Really getting tired of it. Same neighbors just about every time. Gonna have to call the cops next time it happens. Hate to do that, but enough is enough. They just don’t care.

Four years of fun?

We can easily guess what direction a Joe Biden administration is headed. His first move is to make it easy for 11 million undocumented aliens a path to citizenship. Many people say that is quite a lot of votes. But more importantly, what about those poor, sick, unemployed and hungry Americans who are living in the filthy streets of America, many of them in California? Is this how Joe Biden prioritizes? Are we in for a fun and prosperous four years or what?

Look very foolish

I don’t recall Trump making Cabinet appointments before he was sworn into the presidency. Biden will look very foolish if voter fraud is confirmed.
