He definitely had his issues, but served honorably while he served in the military. Of course, it was his own health issues and confronted with the costs, if he hadn’t had the taxpayer funded health insurance from being a senator, that made him come through and make the ACA become law.
The only disdain Traitor Trump had for McCain was helping pass the ACA to give more people better affordable healthcare.
For those that don’t know better, Obamacare is the Affordable Care Act. You know, the thing that Traitor Trump wants to take away from hard working people.
A lot of us Veterans don’t have most of those benefits. Most Veterans that ‘only’ served 2, 4, or 6 years served during times of war and were often asked far more than most to get those benefits. It also shows how little you know about Veterans and Veteran’s services. 4 years in the service is like 8-12 years in any other job. I was honorably discharge a long time ago, have forgotten some of the anachronisms and such, but there are some habits I still have that go direct to my service, like how I hang my clothes. Didn’t even realize it until several years or so ago, when I found my basic training book going through some boxes. Heck, it’s where I learned to make really good hospital corners on my bed.
I am neither a sucker or a loser. Those are the people that vote for Traitor Trump thinking he really cares about them.
Heck, Trump’s already taking credit for Joe’s economy. Which he will for upwards of 2 years, until he crashes it, likely to his and other ungodly wealthy people’s benefits.
One thing Trump can take credit for right now is the rise in hate and violent crime, which has been dropping throughout Joe’s Presidency, but is starting to surge already.
Given the momentum and excitement around Harris’s campaign, it’s still hard to believe so many Democrats didn’t vote and somehow voted for him. However, we won’t be storming the Capital, we will with great sorrow for our nation accept the results. We will resist and take care of the vulnerable as we can. We can hope people wake up, but it’s not likely.
Republican voters are people that want things handed to them conveniently. They would rather believe lies and repeat what they are told, because it’s easy, convenient and frustrates people who they believe are smarter than them. Frankly, I think they are right, we are smarter than them. The only dumb thing we’ve done is think they would ever accept facts as facts, and could learn to be better, kinder people. They are selfish, but project that on the vulnerable, even actual children.
One thing Repubs have long been good at is spinning smart as being somehow stupid and stupid as being somehow smart.
There is no reaching them. We need to reach the people that just don’t vote. They are the real problem. Most of the nation didn’t vote for this, because most of the nation didn’t bother to vote at all.
If McConnell’s tax plan is implemented those that make too little to pay taxes now, will see the largest increase in taxes.
Given the power the Democratic Party would have extended the tax cuts for the workers. Increased taxes for the wealthy who already pay far less than their share in taxes. They would have brought back the child tax credit for those that make the least to bring them out of poverty (again).
Oh well, have to be thankful that I’ve lived in a time that I could afford so many of the things I did. I can only be sad that a comfortable and healthy retirement may be stolen from me, just as I approach the age I should be looking forward to retirement after working for so much of my life.
Of course, my neighbor who plans to retire next year, and just may, will be finding in a few years, he’s likely going to have to find employment again sooner than later.
It’s the violence already happening that is disturbing, but not unexpected.
Ironically, many MAGAts seem disappointed that they don’t get to rampage around the USA. They really wanted to be the hero of their own story that they were looking forward to murdering Americans.
True the numbers don’t add up. Election interference was out in the open, anything more nefarious we may never know.
