Hell all of my friends got their loan forgiven. We all celebrated together.🫠🫠🫠🫠. The people who prospered under DACA should want the program to help others like it helped them, but Trump is going to put a stop to it.

I notice you didn't comment on possibly the best post ever made where I replied to you about Kamala being a black woman in America...

I paid 3x more than I borrowed, so get over it. It was predatory lending.

shouldn't have, if you'd paid it back responsibly.  you like to talk about how well you're doing financially... shoulda paid more than the minimum.  it's not difficult. my wife got her masters and we paid it off in 2 years.

My Son is 23 and knew to pay an extra $100.00 on principle every month. He plans on dumping his entire tax refund on it next year. I'm proud of him being responsible - I was not that responsible at that age.....lol

I have almost completely avoided commenting on the election in these forums. I have avoided most politics threads.

So with it over, these are my thoughts.

The Democrats are all about identity politics, period.  Not only about identity of potential voters but about candidates. That doomed them.

They have twice chosen a female to run with their banner but was either the best candidate or even the best woman candidate? No.

Clinton’s primary was rigged and Harris had no primary. When Harris ran in 2020 she could not even muster the support to win a single delegate. Let that sink in. The Democrats resoundingly rejected Harris four years ago. 

In my opinion the Democrats through Clinton, created Trump. In a normal election Trump should never have stood a chance in 2016 but against one of the worst candidates in history, the coronation of the first woman president didn’t happen. 

Was Clinton the best Democrat in the country? It only came down to a socialist in Bernie Sanders and “the first woman”. Why didn’t anyone (big names) else run?  It isn’t rocket science. The fix for Clinton and the super delegates was in. No Democrat with future aspirations would dare jump in and risk a defeat. 

Jump to 2024 and it was rigged again to break the glass ceiling. Of course someone could ignore that it was kind of a shock that Biden dropped out after he had secured the nomination but in smoke filled rooms this was the plan all along. Harris could not run against her boss so the Dems had to back him but then a couple of months before the election, force him out and install Harris without having her run. They hoped the bump would hold but it started fading quickly. They couldn’t wait to name her however because the DNC convention was looming and the call behind the scenes was forced in order for Harris to basically be selected (not elected) unopposed st the convention. It was now or never. Like Clinton, was Harris the best Democrat candidate? I think the result last night was a resounding no.

So who best Harris? According to the Democrats it was a guy who had the baggage of…

Orangeman bad

Mean tweets

Twice impeached

Convicted on felonies

Sued for issues many years ago

Insurrectionist

Abortion rights removal by the Supreme Court and Trump appointed justices 

Fascist

Hitler

Garbage

Will overturn the Constitution on his first day in office

A threat to democracy 

Etc.

 And yet, Harris got thumped. How could anyone think that Trump could win with such (claimed) baggage… but he did.

 That tells you how bad and delusional the Democrats are. With all of the baggage, how could the Democrat candidate not have won a record breaking landslide like Reagan in 1984?

Easy. By selecting a person based on boxes checked.

 The Democrats created Donald Trump and their internally rigged elections have come back to them. 

 This was not a Donald Trump win. It was a resounding Democrat loss. 

So it’s not just law enforcement topics?  I don’t blame you for not posting more in the political topics (I generally avoid it to), but I would read more often if you did.  There is better analysis in this post than 99 percent of the crap I see on CNN, Fox, or any of the other drivel out there.  Great read and I appreciate your thoughts.

My wife and I are 10 years into a 15-year note on our house.  Not only did we save an obscene amount of money by avoiding a 30-year note, we're actually on pace to finish paying it off at least 2 years early. it's not difficult to be responsible, but I respect your son for doing it at a young age.  I can't imagine being 45-50 years old or however old BG is and still paying the minimum on a "predatory loan" when you're making more than enough money to pay the loan off in a year or two at most.  And then have the nerve to constantly question everyone's intelligence or talk down to them on financial issues.
