It is my opinion that we have far too many politicians. They don’t play well together and are continually fighting or suing each other rather than doing their jobs.

President Trump is spending unnecessary millions foolishly. Italian marble bathroom, extravagant addition for his gala parties and golf trips to Florida on Air Force One (estimated cost $2 million per hour). Who’s going to pay for his gala affairs?

In the 1960s, Khrushchev said he would destroy us without an invasion. It’s working.

Foreign auto makers are flooding our country . Americans buy their products, and they use the profits to buy America. Japan, U.S. Steel; China, farmland and industries. Whatever happened to loyalty to our country?

Look at the trade deficit. The tariffs make enemies of our friends. Canada, for one, which resulted in higher costs for food and products. Many of our medicines come from foreign countries.

Robert Kennedy in charge of our health is ridiculous. Let’s not forget the cost of health insurance increases in 2026.

Republican or Democrat, makes no difference.
