If the Supreme Court rules against accepting mail in ballot after election day, all Republicans have to do is slow down mail service in blue states to put their thumb on the scale of the election.

I see once again Trump’s visit to our nation’s most Hallowed Ground was tarnished by his whining and complaining about his usual bullshit. I don’t understand why people like this man. And they call themselves Patriots.

Of course, Trump thinks the economy is doing well under his presidency. Because for him, it is. He’s up billions of dollars while starving his own voters as he gorges himself at his Mar-a-Lago Gatsby party.

So let me get this straight. Donald Trump is trying to claw back what little money went out to feed the hungry so that he can maintain leverage to force the Democrats to give up on their quest to keep health insurance rates from doubling or tripling? Whose side is he on?

Now with the wind at their backs, Democrats need to step up and tell America what they will do if they are given back control of Congress. Democrats have a ton of great ideas and need to get them in front of the American people and give them a reason to vote for them and not just vote against Trump.

Instead of trying to figure out how to get these people on snap fed this month, shouldn’t we all be focusing harder on why they even need to be on snap? Why do we have so many billionaires at the same time as so many people who need help with food?

Sometimes I wonder if they’re stupid or complicit. They have to know that deportation, wealth hoarding, isolationism, and tariffs are bad for the economy. How many times to republican policies have to cause a recession before they get it?
