At their as-usual pathetic Dem debate last night the candidates were picking on Mayor Pete because he's leading the polls. They called him too inexperienced. Amy Klo(whatever) said "we already picked an inexperienced candidate for president and look what happened." Amy dear, yes look what happened !!!
So if Pete were president, what would his husband be called? An honest question......first gentleman, first dude, first partner?
i wonder what the muslims would .... in the middle east as he is the woman in the relastionship ? | |

Location: Bastrop, Texas | Typically, the SOTU has been somewhat boring in the past. Of course there have been snippets that were noteworthy or entertaining, but they have usually been an inventory of what has transpired over the previous year, as well as a prioritization of the President's agenda going forward. Usually the President has had 2-3 guests who serve as selling points for a particular agenda item. Usually, they are well received on both sides of the isle. Contrary to what Democrats said after Trump's SOTU, the idea of the address being a "pep rally" or "campaign rally" of sorts is nothing new, as evidenced by the fact that the President's approval numbers tend to tick upward after these events.
Ever the showman, Trump took the use of guests to another level. In his SOTU he had over a dozen invited guests, to highlight a wide variety of accomplishments or agenda items, for the most part. That threw Pelosi and the Democrats into a tailspin, and I think it was something of an embarrassment for them, particularly the white clad members of the liberal squad, as they showed their ugly agitation by gesticulating, booing, and hissing like snakes. Pelosi's eyes rolling around in her skull, combined with her childish fidgeting and that tantrum at the end did not serve her well, in my opinion.
I voted for Trump because I liked his agenda, especially compared to Hillary's. Liberals love to repeat the mantra that Trump is a self aggrandizing liar, but when it comes to delivering on his agenda, he has been one of the most honest, trustworthy Presidents in US history. In fact, his accomplishments are so lengthy that he was barely able to present a superficial accounting in his address. If I had to pick a theme for his message, it would be, not surprisingly, "American Exceptionalism". Repeatedly, he pointed out the goodness of being American. Liberals tend to be happiest when they are most miserable, because pandering and fomenting victimology is their chief weapon. This is why they hate Trump, more than any Republican in history, even George W Bush.
It's been a good week for Trump. As the impeachment farce droned on, his approval numbers rose by a full 10%, according to the Gallup Poll. He was acquitted by a majority in the Senate. If anything, the Democrat's approval numbers fell a bit, while the Republican's approval rose by 8% - something that hasn't happened in almost 20 years. As this was going on, the Democrats have their hands full with the Iowa caucuses debacle, and efforts to de-rail Bernie's campaign are now exposed. Biden's pathetic showing in Iowa, combined with his campaign coffers drying up, has sent the DNC swamp off in all directions looking for a replacement. More and more, it's beginning to look like Mike Bloomberg will emerge as a front runner.
It will be amusing to watch the squabbles intensify as this ultra rich old white male billionaire, is whose main accomplishment has been "stop and frisk, emerges heading into the summer. That imagery will go over like a fart in church amongst the blacks and liberal progressive socialists. | |

Trump has delivered his campaign promises. He totally and fully supports our country. I am appalled by the direction the Democrats have taken as they sink further into socialism. I agree that Bloomberg will more than likely buy his way into being their nominee. But - don't count out Hillary -- she is lurking in the shadows. | |

Location: Kansas | Here's a shocker. When the Dem candidates were asked at the debate if they minded being defined as Dem Socialists, nobody raised their hand except one half-hearted half-up raise of the hand by Amy. It's like they're afraid to be proud of what does make American great, not to mention not having minds of their own which they demonstrated when the whole bunch was asked if they were in agreement about free health care for illegals. Joe almost didn't raise his hand but looked right and looked left and decided he better be one of the gang.  | |

Location: Peg-Leg Julia Grimm | All you need to know about the dems is...the real Americans out here are to them, "a basket of deplorables". That's probaby the only honest thing Killary has said in the last 20 years. They want power over us, they want to squash us, break our spirit. There are more and more democrat registered voters that are getting clued into what the leaders of the party are. They are joining the #walkaway movement. They are being welcomed with open arms by the conservatives. | |
