2020 Election Deception


2020 Presidential Election

Candidates
Rallies tonight
Express their views
But is it news?
No mercy, insult each other
Forget we are all soul brothers
A country is at stake, they forget
Ego, arrogance, untruths, false
promises, lies, exaggerations,allegations
All want to be President of this Great Nation
What about us..what about us..just who to trust?

People get the government they deserve! Who would vote a 6x-bankrupt to President and expect that bankrupt to behave with integrity instead of plundering the Treasury? Who would elect someone to Congress knowing that person's allegiance was not to constituents but to a Party and lobbyists who bought the election? Why do you think the President and Congress do NOT support an healthy nor educated workforce? As Skippy Peanut Butter reported, "You asked for it!" Aloha! Rico

Just love the last line!! Yes! --What about us?! Remember us? Who(m) the candidates are supposed to be serving?... These candidates are lost in the ether already: 24 great reasons not to vote for a Democrat. #25 is J.B. Pritzker back here in Illinois, who is busy paving the way for Illinois' coming bankruptcy.... Whoa! Don't get me started with these oily, self-serving slimeballs… :) There, I feel better. :)

We are no better off in CA. We will pay for free health care for all illegals. So if you work here or own property, hand it all over to them. The bartender, AOC, demanding a raise over 4,800 a year? What chutzpah! She, who cheated on Campaign funds? Us? We are their piggybanks. Panagiota Our gov is an idiot. Ruined SF.,now the state?

Tired of hearing themselves pat each on other on the back. Worse, wanting a 4,800 a year raise. These mutts need to serve us, not their own self interests. The polls are so off. I believe none. Remember 2016? I saw that train wreck coming. They did not learn in 2016.Congress's job is to govern not play " Jail to the Chief" LOL Panagiota thanks.

Unfortunately that is the state of politics these days. I am not happy with either party and many of us feel that way too. I can totally relate Panagiota. : ) xxoo

I can say I am still glad we live here regardless of who is running. I just keep the news off because it is way too negative. The good in this country is a hidden treasure. It's not news it is somebody's opinion how evil the USA is. They forget D Day.
