Politics
I pick my Presidents like I pick my friends. Someone who I can trust, someone I can believe in to always try their very best to do the right thing. Sometimes they make mistakes, but my friends learn from them, and are better as life goes on. I learn from my own mistakes as well, and it makes me a better person.
Being an American means being someone people can look to, and know you are safe and well guided by one of the best. Knowing that everything in your life, will go smoothly and be secure. Someone that you and your family can look up to. Also, a President is someone that many of us like, whether they be a Democrat or a Republican.
I never considered myself Political, until Trump came on the scene. Something inside me told me this is someone not to be trusted. Every word he spoke, told me he was a liar. Not from others, but inside me, I was feeling this.
When he called up, was it the Governor of Delaware or Georgia, and I heard the recording. I thought to myself. This is one stupid ass man. Yes, I mean Trump. He has the gall to do that. No other President ever would have done that. You know why, because they have dignity and honor. Trump has no honor. He doesn't honor anyone but himself.
Remember when he first said the Election was rigged. That gave him the idea to “hey let's rig the next one. The Republicans will believe us, the Democrats will lose, and I will win this time, and I won't have to cry Rigged.” But first he needed the money to back it up, so he got close to Elon Musk. Money and power will win, as he always knew. Oh yes, he planned it, and so many fell for it. With all the stupid things he has said, and threats he made and things he has done since becoming President again, makes him the worst human ever in the world today. Stupid asses, and you voted for him again!
Who wants a President that 85% of the world hates? I want a President who gets along with everyone, mostly. Because he is a sure target for something happening with all that hate out there. Someone out there is planning it even as I type this. To bring down Trump, Musk, & Vance.
I hate war, I hate violence, and I hate traitors. But most of all I hate the America that we have become because of these Rich Idiots.
When Trump turned our greatest allies against us, he did the worst thing possible.
Remember, many of us are against Trump, so as you ponder over America as being bad, also remember it is the current President and his administration, not all of us. Many of us are good. Even the stupid ones who don't know better. They're in the spotlight, which means, an easy target. It's not my idea, but you know what, I'm for it.

We bought his albums and watched his shows. He was funny & entertaining.
But when it was proven he was a sex offender I never listened to or watched anything Bill Cosby again.
The thought would almost make me feel ill.
I have friends & relatives that can overlook such things but I never could.
I cannot / will not put my support around one guilty of a sex crime. Much less one that has ‘settled out of court’ several other cases of sexual assault.
I don’t know how one could explain to their child why it’s ok to overlook that. It is not.
We have all heard his degrading words about women.
He was even recorded bragging that a celebrity like himself "can do anything" to women, including "just start kissing them ... I don't even wait" and "grab 'em by the ?€$&¥”.
If your daughter came home & said someone did that would you still over look it? Does it have to hit home first? What about compassion for others?
I would not want this person as any kind of role model or leader.
Nor would I want one who has been convicted of business fraud handling my business.
This is not a Republican or Democrat issue. It is all about morals. Being an Independent I have voted for both parties. I voted on character and integrity.
I see none in Trump and that is sad.
Since taking office again he has attacked our allies and stood by murderous dictators. He pardoned all the terrorists from January 6th. Started a tariff war with three countries, one being our closest ally. All these things are unforgivable.
So please, do not attempt to defend the words and actions of this person.
As it tells me more about you than I ever want to know.
Sincerely,
Dan Swille

This is where I stand. The 47th President, his power hungry cronies taking positions of authority in his Cabinet and administration, and the majority of Republicans in Congress are a real and active threat to me, my way of life, and all or most of the people I love.
Some people are saying that we should give Trump a chance, that we should "work together" with him because he won the election and he is "everyone's president."
This is my response:
•I will not forget how badly he and so many others treated former President Barack Obama for 8 years...Lies about his legitimacy and hatred for his principles and his attempts to work within the system.
•I will not "work together" to privatize Medicare, cut Social Security and Medicaid.
•I will not "work together" to subvert the Constitution by illegitimately pushing unfit Cabinet nominees through on recess appointments without the advice and consent of the Senate.
•I will not "work together" to build a wall.
•I will not "work together" to persecute Muslims.
•I will not "work together" to shut out refugees from other countries.
•I will not "work together" to lower taxes on the 1% and increase taxes on the middle class and poor.
•I will not "work together" to help Trump use the Presidency to line his pockets and those of his family and cronies.
•I will not "work together" to weaken and demolish environmental protection.
•I will not "work together" to sell American lands, especially National Parks, to companies which then despoil those lands.
•I will not "work together" to enable the killing of whole species of animals just because they are predators, or inconvenient for a few, or because some people want to get their thrills killing them.
•I will not "work together" to remove civil rights from anyone.
•I will not "work together" to alienate countries that have been our allies for as long as I have been alive.
•I will not "work together" to slash funding for education.
•I will not "work together" to take basic assistance from people who are at the bottom of the socioeconomic ladder.
•I will not "work together" to get rid of common sense regulations on guns.
•I will not "work together" to eliminate the minimum wage.
•I will not "work together" to support so-called "Right To Work" laws, or undermine, weaken or destroy Unions in any way.
•I will not "work together" to suppress scientific research, be it on climate change, fracking, or any other issue where a majority of scientists agree that Trump and his supporters are wrong on the facts.
•I will not "work together" to criminalize abortion or restrict health care for women.
•I will not "work together" to increase the number of nations that have nuclear weapons.
•I will not "work together" to put even more "big money" into politics.
•I will not "work together" to violate the Geneva Convention.
•I will not "work together" to give the Ku Klux Klan, the Nazi Party and white supremacists a seat at the table, or to normalize their hatred.
•I will not "work together" to deny health care to people who need it.
•I will not "work together" to deny medical coverage to people on the basis of a "pre-existing condition."
•I will not "work together" to increase voter suppression.
•I will not "work together" to normalize tyranny.
•I will not “work together” to eliminate or reduce ethical oversight at any level of government.
•I will not "work together" with anyone who is, or admires, tyrants and dictators.
•I will not support anyone that thinks it's OK to put a pipeline to transport oil on Sacred Ground for Native Americans. And, it would run under the Missouri River, which provides drinking water for millions of people. An accident waiting to happen.
•I will not "work together" to legitimize racism, sexism, and authoritarianism.
This is my line, and I am drawing it.
•I WILL stand for honesty, love, respect for all living beings, and for the beating heart that is the center of Life itself.
•I WILL use my voice and my hands, to reach out to the uninformed, and to anyone who will LISTEN:
That "winning", "being great again", "rich" or even "beautiful" is nothing... When others are sacrificed to glorify its existence.

There are two kinds of people who voted for Donald J. Trump in 2024. The first group was conned—they bought the sales pitch, got burned, and are just now starting to realize they were used. Veterans who lost their jobs, farmers who went bankrupt, blue-collar workers whose towns never saw the economic boom Trump promised—they’re pissed off, and rightfully so.
But then there’s the second group.
The ones who will never wake up. The ones who, no matter how many times Trump lies, betrays, fails, or humiliates them, will stand by him until the bitter end. They will make excuses, twist logic into knots, ignore reality, and cling to their delusions with both hands—because admitting the truth would break them.
These people aren’t victims of Trump anymore. They’re willing participants in their own destruction.
THE TRUE BELIEVERS: TRUMP IS THEIR RELIGION
For some, Trump isn’t just a politician. He’s a savior. A messiah. A symbol. They don’t just like him; they worship him. He’s the golden calf, the god-emperor, the great avenger of their grievances.
These are the people who plaster his face on their trucks, fly Trump flags higher than the American flag, wear shirts with his name like he’s a sports team. Many of them made their way to Washington D.C. on January 6, 2021 to risk prison for a man who wouldn’t cross the street to save them from a burning car.
They don’t care what he does or who he hurts, because he is them.
When Trump is attacked, they feel attacked. When Trump is mocked, they feel mocked. When Trump is losing, they feel like they’re losing.
It’s not about policy or results anymore. It’s about identity. And that’s why they will never let go—because if Trump is a fraud, then their whole sense of self crumbles.
THE HATERS: THEY DON’T LOVE TRUMP—THEY SIMPLY HATE HIS ENEMIES
Not all of the unshakable Trump supporters are true believers. Some don’t even like him that much. They know he’s an idiot. They know he’s corrupt. They know he’s full of shit.
But they don’t care.
Because it was never about loving Trump—it was about hating the people he hates.
The libs. The media. The academics. The immigrants. The protesters. The LGBTQ+ activists. The “coastal elites.” The government. The “deep state.” The list goes on.
Trump could gut veterans’ benefits, destroy farmers’ livelihoods, raise taxes on working-class people, and screw over his own supporters every single day—and they’d still cheer, as long as he was making the right people miserable.
This is why nothing sticks to Trump. Scandals that would have ended any other politician don’t matter to his most die-hard fans, because to them, it’s not about governance. It’s about owning the libs.
They don’t care if Trump ruins their lives as long as he makes someone else’s worse.
TOO DEEP IN THE LIE TO TURN BACK
Some Trump supporters aren’t brainwashed or hateful. They’re just trapped.
They’ve spent years defending Trump, arguing with friends and family, dismissing every scandal, pretending that every failure was actually a success.
If they turn on him now, they have to admit they wasted years of their lives defending a fraud.
They can’t do it. It’s too humiliating.
So they double down. They tell themselves they were right all along. They insist that every bad thing about Trump is a lie, every attack on him is fake news, and every disaster he causes is actually part of a bigger plan.
They don’t believe it. Not really. But they have to keep pretending, because at this point, admitting they were wrong would destroy them.
So they’ll go down with the ship. Not because they love Trump. Not because they believe in him.
But because they can’t face what it would mean if they finally admitted the truth.
SO WHAT HAPPENS TO THEM?
The true believers, the haters, the con men—they’re not changing. Ever. They will defend Trump until the day they die, no matter how many ways he screws them over.
But reality doesn’t care about their delusions.
Their farms will still fail. Their jobs will still disappear. Their healthcare will still suck. Their wages will still stagnate.
And when it happens, they won’t blame Trump.
They’ll blame immigrants.They’ll blame Democrats.They’ll blame the media.They’ll blame "the deep state."They’ll blame literally anyone except the man who actually caused it.
Trump will keep taking their money, keep using them, keep exploiting their fears, and they will love him for it.
Because for them, it was never about making America great again.
It was about making sure someone else suffered more than they did.
And that’s why they’ll never wake up.
*****************************************************************************For every good thing Trumpers find good about him, I find 10 bads things he has done. When you have everything taken from you, it will hit home. Will you still support him, when you stand naked in a homeless shelter?
*********************************************************************************Facebook March 11, 2025 - I turned off the comments on the post below. But I do want to say, I learned something about politics. We as people tend to see only one side of the scenario. That has to do with the news as well. We have news that take one side, news that takes the other side, and news that takes outside the USA. It's hard to believe which one is true when one is pointing the finger at the other. It's hard to get the full story on anything.
When we have everyone fighting against each other, how can we fix anything. We need someone on the Democratic side gathering up all the good points and bad points for one side, and someone on the Republican side gathering up good and bad points as well. But be sure it is true facts that you are actually getting. We need to work together and find what's best for America. We still may not agree on everything, but at least we are both working toward the same goal.
*********************************************************************************“Dozens of Social Security Administration offices across the country are expected to close this year as part of the Department of Government Efficiency's (DOGE) cuts to the federal government. DOGE published a list of nearly 800 real estate leases for federal offices the organization is looking to not renew.”
This is what happens when little kids run our country. They don't know anything. Empeach the asshole, and get rid of the others! Listen people, politics is something I have avoided all my life. But when it hits close to home, I talk. Because it is going to affect many of us. I was planning on keeping my anger off of Facebook. I was planning on staying on things that stay positive. But I know many of you, believe as I do. Angry at Stupid Dumbass people who think they are doing everything right, and it is all WRONG. Everything from before he was elected, to since he was elected. He is disgusting. I hate hearing his voice, it makes me gag. I hate seeing his face. I shall voice my mind, because I see many others do.
******************************************************************************
Schools and food banks in Georgia are losing funding that goes toward buying fresh food. This comes as the Trump administration cuts programs that support purchasing from local farms. President Donald Trump has canceled several federal grants and programs, including the Local Food for Schools Cooperative Agreement Program, or LFS.
**
Local food for schools helps farmers and kids. So why is Trump cutting funding?
Agriculture department cuts to funding for local food in school meals betrays growers, kids and collective well being
**
USDA cancels $500M in food deliveries, leaving food banks scrambling
The Trump administration’s latest move, which follows $1 billion in cuts to food aid programs, puts more pressure on groups trying to feed hungry Americans.
**************************
Trump is cutting off research from Cancer, and cutting much of the Medical as well as the Education system. He already had his filthy hands in our Social Security. Those who plan to storm the White House. Don't let them off easy. Torture them like they are to doing to us. Trump, Musk, Vance, Kennedy, and throw Putin in there too.
*******************************************************
Trumpers who are reading this. It is your choice to believe or not believe what I post, as it is for anyone. You can say my posts are untrue, or farfetched. But let me ask you these questions.
If I read that Cancer Research was being canceled, and someone you know confirmed it, would you believe it? Some don't believe that there is or will ever be a cure for cancer, so they feel we don't need it.
If I heard and read that much of the Medical staff were being let go, and someone in the Medical field told you he/she was let go, would you believe them? Many Trumpers feel that the vaccines don't work, and more people had Covid who had the vaccines.
If I heard and read that they are letting much of the Education staff go. Would you believe it if a a teacher told you, many of the teachers were let go? One woman said, the education right now is not good anyway.
My final question, even should you find all I said was true, which it is. Would it change anything you believe at all? I don't believe it would change their minds. Which is sad, because we really need more people to see that what Trump and his administration are doing is WRONG. And it keeps getting worse. The only way the Trumpers will see it's wrong, is when it effects them totally.

Karen: OK now let me try to explain that better about Trump cutting education with the kids being there. OK, now Trump addressed the nation from the White House in his cabinet. That is normal, right? But what was not normal this time, was he had about thirty grade school kids sitting on the floor around him. That was just for show on his part. Every time he talked about the cuts in education, he had the kids cheer like the kids approved. These kids were way too young to know what they were cheering for. The whole thing was staged and it was just a sick move on his part. The public was very upset about the whole thing and so was I.
Cuz you said that you saw this somewhere. I saw this also: I read somewhere that Obama came forward and said “The whole election was rigged.” And Harris is asking for a recount. Not sure what's going to become of either.
Here is what I found out. You can only do a recount of a presidential election up to two weeks after the election. So it is way too late now to do a recount. Now watch what you believe and look everything up. Because a lot of this stuff is not true. Things that are printed about Obama and Harris now I am sure are Artificial intelligence. People love to start gossip you know.
***********************************************************************************Let me tell you something. First of all, I have never been interested in politics. Most of my life I have avoided it. Although when I was younger I loved reading about past Presidents, such as the Roosevelts. I knew many politicians were liars, even though some were better than others. This is where I say, nobody is perfect.
I hate how it has divided us as people. USA vs USA, USA vs the World. Some may think it's okay, he's doing a great job. But you don't know everything. Of course, neither do I. But what I do know is, many of the things he has done, does not feel right to me. Even me, who isn't into politics, knows this. Maybe you are into the rich people and think they are going to make your life better. They only want more money and more power. Remember the game “Risk” where you win by trying to take over all the countries. That is what he is trying to do. He wants to control everyone and everything. We the people can't let that happen. America needs to be reborn to the America we knew and loved before he got into office. Right now, I'm not really sure what we can do to complete that. I'm hoping when the time comes, we will know what to do. I'm hoping right now, someone is doing something that will guide us to do the right thing. Because, I know, what is happening right now, is not the right way to go about it. Let's work together to make “America better than it is right now, because he made it worse, not great.”
****************************************************
I read a lot of Fantasy. You know, like “The Hobbit” and “Lord Of The Rings” and “The Wizard Of Oz” and many more. But you know this year, it's really hard to tell the difference between reality and fantasy. In “Lord Of The Rings” you have a dark lord and his dire wraiths. Here we have a dark lord and his dire wraiths. In “Wizard Of Oz” we have the Wicked Witch, and here we have a wicked guy. In the “Riftwar” series on Midkemia, they have a Demon trying to take over the world. Here we have a Demon trying to take over the world. I never thought the dark side of Fantasy would become reality. Now, I can not read the books, without him being every evil power trying to take over the worlds in my books. All the ones before him, never tried to take over the world, just like the heroes in my books. I prefer a hero, instead of a zero.
***************************************************************************Is the man we have in as president as good as republicans think he is? Well, let me tell you. You or your family may not have been affected by these cutbacks, but many of us have
Do you people realize that President Trump has pulled all research and test studies for cancer? And do you have any idea what test study drugs mean to people who have been on them? People who have Leukemia and other types of cancer have had many different kinds of treatments over many years, and many with no success. Many have passed. Some of these treatments have made people sicker. So when the treatments they have tried do not work, it is suggested that they try test study drugs. Test study drugs are drugs that have not yet been released for use. But these drugs can be used on humans in controlled trials.. These test study drugs have kept many alive. And the people who have participated in test studies have helped to put these drugs on the market for use.
But this is no longer going to happen, because President Trump wants to cut test study drugs and research. No more funding for cancer research and trials.
Even Trump was on a controlled test study drug while he had COVID-19. Of course, It is good enough for our President but not for anyone else. I found the proof of this information on the internet. I copied and will paste it here:
On 2 October, the White House announced President Donald Trump received an experimental antibody treatment after a test revealed he's infected with SARS-CoV-2
These cuts of the budget may not affect you at this point in your life, but this does not mean it will not at some other point in your life.
