  1. Because I’ll be honest…. History is going to be much more kind to Obama than Trump, and for good reason. Obama might be a progressive, which I can’t stand, but he is a decent person. You can’t say that about Trump. Obama tried to make sure poor people could afford health care… Trump gave his rich buddies tax breaks. Trump borrowed more in four years than Obama did in eight. So much for trickle down economics working for anybody.

  2. To address the deficit, you’re going to have to look at the biggest drivers of our spending. Social security and Medicare combine for 35% (21 and 14, respectively), then 13% of our spending is on interest on the debt we’ve already racked up, then another 13% on MedicAid. Finally you reach what used-to-be a cash cow of defense spending at 13%. Our deficit spending has probably already destroyed us. Biden keeps talking about his plan to raise taxes on the wealthy and bring in 500 billion dollars over the next 10 years… meanwhile, we’re adding 3 trillion per year to the debt right now. Hard times are coming. They’ll either be because we do the hard things in terms of cutting our spending, or because the whole thing topples because of the size of our debt. That’s what’s so crazy about the talk about the Trump Economy. They literally just cut taxes without doing anything about our spending, and deficits soared. Follow that up with COVID spending (direct gifts from the Treasury) and we’re headed into deep, uncharted waters (for us, anyways). Cutting taxes won’t fix it, and neither will raising taxes. We’ve got to make some hard choices or watch it all burn down on top of us. Don’t blame the politicians. “We the People” keep electing people who give us the best short term gains, and it’s going to end badly. I believe that I’ll see $150 loaves of bread in my lifetime.

  3. Yeah…. I really wish I could be proven a rapist, twice impreached, obese, convicted felon, with hundreds of millions of dollars in judgment debts, facing prison, with 60 more felony counts pending in multiple jurisdictions, and my wife (nudes available on the web) and kids won’t be seen in public with me… after getting beat four years ago by what has to be considered the worst Presidental ticket ever. But he’s doing it for us because he loves America. Super jealous.

  6. I've been very careful to say after July 4. Two things to remember 1) once they ship from the distributor its out of our hands, they get picked up and delivered to retail outlets and then it's really dependent on when their vendor comes in and puts them put. 2) Retail distribution is more limited now, it will be harder to find because there are fewer magazines distributed

  7. Who cares?!!! Why are y’all still crying about a guy who’s been retired for eight years? Racism, I suspect.

  8. Certainly….. but just like the right wingers who call for abolishing the ATF, getting rid of certain federal courts, term limits, blah blah blah….. The problem is that the only people who can do that are the same people who put those in place to begin with.
