Anyone else regret voting for Trump?

Pemalite said: Mr Puggsly said: I can't say I'm entirely happy with Trump, although there are numerous I do like he has done. You should only regret voting for Trump if you think Hillary would have been better. Those were our options, Hillary and Trump. We knew Hilary would have been bad, so we had to take a chance on Trump. But didn't Hilary get more votes? So really the...

Anyone else regret voting for Trump?

in Politics Discussion on 06 May 2017

So far he is looking good for a second term. More jobs, better economy, and the dems are still stuck in Russia did it, and the media hasn't changed their tunes either. I considered them fake news long before Trump ever said anything, as do soo many people. That why drudge gets such wide readership. No one trusts the news any more, it too one sided and biased to trust any more, and the lack of...

There is a bill that will provide universal healthcare for California residents.

in Politics Discussion on 28 March 2017

You sure you actually have to be a resident? I mean its CA why not cover everyone that can make it in. I have no idea who they plan to tax for this. We already are unable to lock up criminals, you could get caught red handed breaking into someones home, get sentenced guilty for your crime and probably not spend a day in jail. They already tax gas too much and can't keep the roads maintained....

Everything is a right and neccesity to college students now. But it starts...

By people who are "antiracist", "tolerant", "multicultural" etc etc etc. It's the single...

Donate for Trump to fight the media!

in Politics Discussion on 19 February 2017

That's why I voted for him. Instead of using government money like other politicians would do he is letting people put their money where there mouth is. How great is that. I think dems/celebrities forget they can always donate as much money as they want to the government to help fund their social programs. Wonder why they all choose to live in big houses and save their money instead? I don't...

That's what happened here in America. We had our war on drugs, started by Bill Clinton, and it reduced crime huge from the 90's. Yet now we are thinking that all those people in prison for drug related offenses...
