Extremism, corruption, incompetence, soon we will feel the results.

The republican party has been very lucky they have not paid a big price for their extremism and decisions they have been making. One day their luck is going to run out.

This tax bill is pure greed. They are hoping the economy improves for many years to cure all our problems. You can't predict what is going to happen in the world. A war could break out in the middle east, China could have economic problems. You don't know. Any economic downturn would send our debt through the roof. They are playing with fire.

The Republicans have supported Trump as he deregulates everything, which will lead to corruption. Watch the banks. Trump has shown great incompetence when it comes to our institutions, government agencies. He is hollowing them out. He is cutting their budgets. He puts people in charge who hate the agencies they are put in charge of. It's fucking crazy.

As we continue to watch the Trump freak show, as the news media continues to fail us, pressure is building inside a giant volcano. One day we will see the results. The American people are repeating the same mistakes over and over again. The American people need an attitude adjustment. We are behaving badly, we are being self destructive. Our culture has soured. We don't even protect our children from gun violence. Thats a sick culture.

I have been telling people for many years the only way America is going to straighten out is for the American people to get their asses kicked. Like back during the great depression. America will survive, the people just need a good ass kicking. Thats my opinion.

Rich peoples tax plan. Its time for the american people to understand who is truly their enemy.

The republican party has been taken over by the rich. It's that simple. This is a rich man, corporate take over of America. We need a Roosevelt type president who will attack the rich and limit their power. Both Roosevelts understood the rich were a threat when they had to much power and money.

We need to raise the individual tax rate on rich people. They have way to much money and power. We need campaign finance reform. Citizens United has to go. Until we do this America will continue to destroy itself.

The November massacre.

The American people hate this tax scam. Trump and the Republicans own the economy after this scam becomes law. What ever happens to the economy from now on is on them. Any downturn in the economy or the stock market will be lethal for Trump and the Republicans.
No one can predict when a downturn will occur. This tax scam makes a downturn more likely. Remember the old saying, "If it isn't broken don't fix it."

This may give the economy a boost at first but the average American will not notice because it benefits the rich. A few extra dollars in the American peoples pocket will not change their lives. Many Americans will get hurt by this tax scam. This tax scam attacks states like New York and California. If you hurt the economy of those two states you will hurt the entire economy. This tax scam hurts the healthcare system. Costs will go up and people will lose their coverage.

Next year there will be more arrests, trials will start, we will learn more and more about the investigation. It is going to be a very bad year for Trump and the Republicans. This will lead to the democrats taking back the house and maybe the senate. The November massacre.

Always remember and beware the Trump voters.

These are the idiots of our society. After Trump goes down and many people go to prison, never forget the Trump voters. Shame them. Treat them like the virus they are. Remind them of what they have done to our country.

These are the people who voted to destroy our healthcare. They voted for a tax plan that takes from the poor and gives to the rich. They don't even have the ability to recognize it. They voted for a man who was pure evil and did not try to hide it. They put their children's future in jeopardy. They are a threat to all of us, our country. Never forget them. Treat them like they are your enemy because they are your enemy.

Never forget.

The, We hope it pays for itself tax plan.

What a fucking joke. They are projecting this tax cut plan will raise the debt by 1.4 trillion dollars. Thats based on the economy we have now thanks to Obama. No one can predict when a downturn may occur. If we have a downturn the debt will soar. We already have a stock market bubble and this tax plan will inflate it. Yikes!

Republicans will once again prove trickle down economics leads to economic collapse. What the fuck is wrong with the republican voters?

Trump is about to reach his goal.

He ran to enrich himself and the tax plan does just that. Trump voters are a bunch of fools.

Where the hell is Mr. National Debt Rand Paul? Hiding from his neighbor?

Paul has bitched about the debt his entire career. How in the hell can he vote for this tax cut. Another lying asshole. The people of Kentucky should vote him out of office if he votes for the tax cuts.

Trump lying at the FBI academy.

If I was there I would walk out. He just told them I will be the most loyal person ever for you. Trump is the biggest asshole I have ever seen in my life. Hurry Mueller, I can't take much more of this bullshit.

I met and talked to Gillibrand when she was my house representative.

I was impressed with her knowledge of issues. She seemed to really care. She knows how to play politics. What is going on now with sexually harassment is it has become politics. Franken is a victim of politics. The democrats see this as a big winning issue. Bigger than Franken. I liked Franken alot.
