The BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL - PASSED THE HOUSE
thetragichippy replied to thetragichippy's topic in Political Forum
Obama really did a number to our health insurance. I went from paying $85 a paycheck with a $250 deductible to now $130 a paycheck with a $3200 deductible....and that is the lowest deductible the company has. We do get about $1000.00 a year on a HSA card provided by company, but that still leaves you with a $2200 deductible before they pay 80% Healthcare is broken -
Didn't you say multiple times no way Trump will win again........ Also, "Normal people don’t spend time on message boards engaging in political discourse… but with the exception of Reagan" AND OBVIOUSLY YOU........and the 600 million active users on "X" You focus on the stuff that don't matter. Trump administration is passing bills and wining in the courts.....things that DO matter

With the Republicans MOSTLY on the same page, there is not much Dems can do....... -
Was I right? Maybe or maybe not...... But this was just posted by Trump: " Based on the ridiculous amount of publicity given to Jeffrey Epstein, I have asked Attorney General Pam Bondi to produce any and all pertinent Grand Jury testimony, subject to Court approval. This SCAM, perpetuated by the Democrats, should end, right now!"

Is it gun accidents that are causing the problem? I was raised around guns. My Grandfather, who us grandkids adored, would be a bad grandpa in todays atmosphere. He lived in the country, and there was a loaded gun in dang near every room. They were considered and treated likes tools, not weapons. At 9 or 10 years old, I could take the .22 rifle or 410 shotgun in the woods by myself. That was after much supervision making sure I could handle it safely. I think if you are an open carry state, they should teach gun safety in public schools. Heck, why not teach gun safety in all 50 states......Start in 5th grade and have refreshers every other year.

One thing that does make me think is Trump is not stupid. He had to of known not releasing the Epstein files would give the Democrats a huge talking point. What if.......he wants to release it but is acting like he don't, so when it is released, the innocent people that get bad press guilty by association, he can claim he didn't want to release it......comes out being the good guy....... I know that is a stretch, and probably not the case.....but politics is complicated and I often wonder how far they will go to create a story.......I mean, look at how far the Democrats went with the Russia Hoax.....DOJ and FBI were involved.

and @DCT A couple things to this question. On 11/22/2016 Trump told the NY Times ", It’s just not something that I feel very strongly about" in the same interview, he said, "It’s just not something that I feel very strongly about,” and also said, speaking about his base, "I don’t think they will be disappointed. I think I will explain it that we in many ways will save our country,” he said, adding that prosecuting Clinton “would be very, very divisive for the country.” Despite all that, he spent most of his first 4 years fighting off impeachments and dealing with covid. He did not have time for Hillary if he would of wanted to. I also want to ask and say this..... Do you know of anyone who has been investigated more than Donald Trump? I remember when Democrats lost it because he would not release his tax returns.....when they were finally leaked or released, what did they find? Absolutely nothing. The Russia hoax, Georgia BS, the only thing they could get him with was a complicated tax thing that will be overturned on appeal, as claimed by most unbiased attorneys.... So, do I think Trump is a Pedo?.....I don't - Trump has never drank, smoked or used illegal drugs.....think about that, he had stupid money, beautiful women all around him, was popular and resisted drug use in the late 80's and 90's when X and cocaine were at their social peak. Think about all those parties he went to......seems to me he is pretty good at resisting temptations ..... However, if he did do pedo stuff, he should get pedo punishment......

I do get it. There is something there or there is not. Trump said release any credible Epstein files today.... If/when they do release anything, it will be so redacted to protect innocent folks, that, in itself, will lead to more speculation... and just like a long time detective said on one of the news channels, in his entire career, he has never arrested someone that had a list of all their crimes or a list of what they did......
