  1. And in other great news......President Trump signed an executive order requiring U.S. colleges to protect free speech or face funding cuts. It's about time.

  3.  @samualcrocket1405  I'm only allowed to vote in one district. Maybe it's because I'm a Republican. I can't be taken to fault for what suburban moms are voting for. I'm a country boy and we ALL vote red. I'm extremely suspicious of a Party that thinks that showing your ID when voting is racist and wrong. I think that it's common sense and so do most countries around the world. At least the countries that have elections believe that.

  4.  @TheMaverickq  Zelensky needs help from the United States. So he goes to the US, hat in hand, right to the main office of the president of the US, and picks a fight with him as if he's entitled to the money and arms that he wants. He's not entitled to ANYTHING. This has to be the dumbest possible way to ask for help when you're in a war that you can't win alone. It's a complete lack of decorum in someone else's "house". The next time you go to the bank for a loan, start yelling at the loan officer after he gives you a deal which would guarantee that loan. You'd might find yourself escorted out the door and asked to never come back.

  5.  Almighty Black'Man  What are going on about? No one wants illegals to die. They want them to apply for entry and wait until that application is approved. They DON'T want them to sneak in and then claim the same rights as those who are real citizens or who came here after waiting to enter legally. That's what they want. Have you ever heard of a passport? Try to enter another country without one. They'll send you home right quick. I've done a lot of travelling, Europe, Central and South America, and I've ALWAYS had to show my passport. You can't even get on a plane without it. Yet, for some strange reason, these lefties think that the US is bigoted for doing what EVERY other country in the world does. It's ridiculous.

  8.  @Reezys-f2q  Watch the film of Biden bragging about threatening to keep $1,000,000,000, that's BILLION, dollars unless a special prosecutor was fired. The prosecutor was fired and shortly after, Hunter Biden's boss had 23 million bucks that had been frozen, released. 6 months later, all charges were dropped against the guy. If you don't find that disturbing, I don't how much money used to threaten and bribe foreign would bother you. A TRILLION bucks? If we're going to drain the swamp, let's drain the entire swamp, not just the ones we don't like.

  9.  @ohwell2790  It's not only rich people that would be affected by a Wall St. tax. Every American and even a lot of foreigners would see it. It would depress actions and growth on Wall St. and that affects everyone. If you're a factory worker, you may have a company pension. Pensions rely on Wall St. for growth. Even a modest bank accounts depend on the markets. That's how the banks can afford to pay interest. They use that money for investments and the better return on that money, the better it is for the customer. Remember the last bank crash? Banks went bankrupt and people lost life savings. This is the craziest idea yet. Any hope that anyone might have, especially the lowest of the economic scale, for any kind of retirement savings, depend on a strong stock market. Even modest investments annually in 401K can have great results over the years. Don't take that away by depressing investment climate. It'll hurt everyone.

  10. @Man Dingo That doesn't address the point that he's making. He's saying that private companies generally do a better job than a government agency and gives an example. New Orleans is below sea level and has been for a long time. It was the actions of the Army Corp of Engineers that caused the breach and flooding. Besides, 26 percent of the Netherlands is below sea level, including one ENTIRE province. It can be done if done right. It wasn't done right in New Orleans.

  11.  @captidgas  However, if Biden is guilty, wouldn't it be in every American's best interest to find out about it and wouldn't asking the Ukraine president to look into his actions be the right thing to do? What kind of "shrug it off" president would Trump be to just ignore it? The media hatred for Trump runs so deep that even if someone else called for that investigation, they would have just called that person a Trump stooge. That he was paid to do it. It's as if every Democrat thinks Biden should have a free pass, so long as it's the road to getting rid of Trump. Right or wrong is just as meaningless to them as they accuse Trump of being. It's all political.

  16. It's not just a paycheck. They get top notch benefits and a pension that most Americans can only dream of. I'm guessing that the average wages and benefits would be well over $100,000. It's time that they showed their worth, just like most of us have to do in the private sector.

  17.  @diegojines-us9pc  The school makes money from sports so they can use it to help finance other activities. Is it hypocrisy to use the extra cash to build a chemistry lab? Of course not but for some weird reason it's hypocritical to use this extra money to support women's sports. I'm not getting your point at all. You just sound bitter to me. No logic....just the emotional response of one who is filled with resentment.

  18.  @19infreg  What happened to making your own way in life? Socialism. Socialism and the entitled attitudes that come with the socialist mindset. Things start to lose value under socialism. Your education, your family, your integrity, your drive to succeed, it all falls to the socialist mindset that things aren't fair and society must make sure that everything is fair. Socialism is one of the most destructive force on the planet.

  19.  @JDT64  First.....we've lost ONE year of construction so we can't even put an extra push on construction to speed up the completion process. He's put us over a year behind and there's no plan to restart construction so there's no relief to be expected there at all in any immediate future. Alberta Premier, Jason Kenney, says that it could still be completed by early 2023, if they went back to work and made it an international priority. It would increase, on its own, oil production by 900,000 barrels per day. Had Biden not stopped the work, it could have been completed by this fall. Second....if oil shortages from Russian embargoes are causing a dramatic rise in world wide energy costs, wouldn't the extra oil that the Keystone project add to the oil supply and drive DOWN energy costs?? Finishing the pipeline and encouraging domestic production would solve the shortfall that didn't exist one year ago. Biden is doing neither. You're making excuses for bad policy decisions and the result is increased inflation and an announcement of probable food shortages. Doing nothing isn't going to solve those problems.

  24.  @katinamarie6651  You're talking about wars that happened over 30 years ago and the people are finally fleeing NOW? As for those cages, WHEN will some of you get it through your heads that those pictures were taken in 2014, when Obama was the president and that Trump put an end to it when it became public news? This is easily accessed information and yet people keep bringing it up. I'll even give you that the US shouldn't have gotten involved in those civil wars but that was a long time ago. These people aren't fleeing those wars anymore. They're just tired of corrupt governments and the crime. If you're going to use that as a criteria for asylum seekers, Canada should be forced to take in asylum seekers from Chicago. Lots of crime and corruption there. The problem is that the people of those countries are taking advantage of lax American immigration laws and they're being told that all you have to do is show up and you can stay. The US must put an end to that idea and force those migrants to go home, apply through legal means like every other immigrant to the US. It's a disaster right now and it will get worse. If the Democrats get into power again, they'll suddenly realise it and blame Trump for the issue and try to fix the migrant problem EXACTLY the way Trump wants to do it now. This type of migrant influx can't be sustained forever. It's insane to believe otherwise.

  25.  @bertblue9683  I think that it's unethical to "lose" your pension when you're fired. You've paid into it. It's YOUR money. It would be like demanding your wages back. You're better off refusing their pension and starting one of your own.

  26.  @changinglanes869  I suppose when he gave a huge amount of money to save the parade, 25 years ago, that was all about him, too. Can't you put aside your hate for ONE DAY!!!!!! Just ONE EFFING day. Just sit and appreciate what those soldiers sacrificed. NO....can't be done. Another way to babble politics. A salute to those veterans and respect to all those who honour them, no matter what their political affiliation.

  27.  Real Christian.  You've just pointed out a major reason why Hillary lost the last election. She projected a major disdain for those living in "fly over" America, calling them "deplorables" and insinuating that they're nothing but hillbillies and just plain dumb. It's a terrible campaign strategy to call the person that you want to vote for you all kinds of insulting names. "Hey, you stupid Yokel...vote for me or else prove how much of a deplorable you are" isn't a winning tactic. You'd think an "educated" person would know that.

  28. You've gotta be kidding. Farming, in North America, has been privately operated for all our history. They have provided us with an overwhelming surplus of food since WW2. The only reason that we're talking food shortages now is due to the interference of world governments. Farmers aren't setting the policies. The Netherlands is now setting fertiliser caps and it's estimated that this will end in a reduced crop yield of over 30%. THAT'S THE GOVERNMENT DOING THIS. In Sri Lanka, those policies were implemented 2 years ago and it resulted in over 30% loss in crops. People went hungry and inflation grew to 133%. Once again....GOVERNMENT POLICIES. Now you want the government to stick their noses into our agricultural sector? You're out of your mind.

  29.  @Alfred.E.Neuman.1  I think what he's saying is that he wants those, who are indoctrinating students in socialist ideologies, should be replaced by teachers who are teaching academics and vocational studies. He wants to get RID of those failing teachers, who aren't failing from their own prospective. They're a big success at what they want to do. That's not giving the high schools MORE responsibilities. It's changing their responsibilities from ideological indoctrination to real education.

  30.  @tisha3831  It wasn't Trump that made the emotional mess. It was the Democrats and the media who started all the talk about collusion and who made up and manipulated the stories surrounding Trump. They made a big deal out of the stupidest things. If you can't control your emotions, that's no one's fault but your own. Get yourself under control and you will never do that if you insist that your emotions are at the control of others.

  31.  I'm Your President  I have a feeling that's going to change after these riots. That's when people will be pissed over the damage and they'll begin to accept that Cuomo was better at PR than he was at being a governor. The grievances are mounting. Eventually, there will be enough people with grievances that his approval ratings will plummet.

  32.  Steven Sweeden  There is a lot of hatred out there. It started the moment Trump announced his plans to run for the presidency. There is no way anyone can deny that. People actually say it. "I hate Trump". There have been numerous attacks on people wearing MAGA hats. The entire Covington fiasco was due to the fact that some of those kids were wearing those hats. The media intentionally distorted that story. Anyone that watched the original film in an unbiased way could see that those kids did nothing so why would the media portray that incident the way they did. That doesn't mean that Trump is great guy but when people refuse to even acknowledge something that he did that might be good because of the way they feel about him, that's intense dislike....or hate. When a so-called comedienne's reaction to a picture of his daughter holding her baby is to call her a feckless c---, that's due to hatred. When someone posts a picture of themselves holding Trump's severed head or say that they fantasise about blowing up the White House, it's gone way beyond disapproval. It wasn't that long ago, that I was in a bar when a guy casually mentioned that he voted for Trump in 16, and he was called an idiot and then asked to leave. That's not just disapproval.....that's hatred. When a member of Congress tells people to confront those she doesn't like when they're in public and tell them that they're not welcome....that's hatred. These people may feel justified but it's still hatred, plain and simple.

  33.  Herbie NYC407  Like back when Obama was president? It's been 4 YEARS since the last riot over a shooting of a unarmed man. When Obama was president, let's see, there was Trayvon Martin (wasn't even shot by a cop), Michael Brown, Alton Sterling, Philandro Castille, Freddie Gray, Sandra Bland, Tamir Rice, and more so let's get off this "Republicans are at fault" nonsense.

  34. @rgsand01 Because Mayor De Blasio and Governor Cuomo are telling them not to get involved. Let the rioters loot and burn. They're not supporting the police, the businesses or the public....AT ALL. The police can't act on its own, no more than the military can. A Navy captain of a battleship can't just sail into a foreign city and start blasting away without orders from the top. Police officers can't start arresting people when their superiors tell them not to, superiors who are getting their orders from the Mayor. If they went against their bosses and arrested rioters, the rioters would just be let go and the police officers involved would be reprimanded or let go. Mayor De Blasio won't use force to stop the rioting criminals but he's just fine with those criminals destroying the lives and property of innocent people. He'll do that till they're at his front door. Then, just like that idiot Chris Palmer, the sports announcer, who cheered on the rioters, until they showed up at his neighbourhood, he'll call in the police and National Guard and call the rioters criminals. When it hurts him, THEN you'll see him act. The worst mayor in the US, although the mayor in Minneapolis is running a close second.

  36.  @marywallace7191  I'll try this again. When Trump gave a huge amount of money to the veterans to save the parade, 25 years ago, was THAT about himself? I'd not even heard about it until this organiser revealed it on this program. I don't expect an answer for that, at least not one that's logical and coherent and laced with invective. Can you NOT, for the love of God, put your HATE for the man aside for one day and just honour those veteran heroes? Honour them and respect those who honour them with you regardless of political affiliations. JUST FOR ONE DAY.

  38. @John Balnis Trump being re-elected is a very real possibility. Everyone was so sure that Clinton would win the last election that the Democrats couldn't see where they were making mistakes. From what I'm seeing they haven't looked inward yet to see where they could have ran a better campaign. Learn from your mistakes is an axiom the Dems should pay attention to.

  39.  @dejuanrobert  The envy argument. He's a billionaire so he's a despicable person. Besides, he is spending his own money. He doesn't take a salary for being president. People are giving their money because they like what he's done for the country. It's their right. Notice how the Democrats can't get any where close to what the Republicans are getting. Why? I'd say it's because they DON'T have the approval of the average American....OR.....it's the Democrat supporters that are stingy ones.

  41.  Gerry Swaim  "The LYING CHEATING STEALING NARCISSISTIC BRAGGING BLOWHARD BULLY" It would seem that any information would have to get past this quite obvious and overt hatred that you have for the guy. You start out with the hatred and then filter out any information that might work in favour of your narrative. No news source would be reputable until it meets your standard of hate. Try and discard that filter and try to be a little objective. No one has ever said that you have to like the president but when one has to capitalise opinions, one is also showing that decisions and perceptions are being made on emotions, not logic or fact. As for reputable(?), I hope you're not referring to CNN or MSNBC. These are the networks that didn't even bother to fact check the Covington Kids story. Why is it that a guy like me, living in a one bedroom apartment, in a small town, could find the actual footage of the incident within 10 minutes and see what actually happened while those networks, with all their money and resources, couldn't? Maybe you should reconsider what you think is reputable.

  42.  @ElimEx1  So you charge someone a 33 million dollar fee because they want information? How is that investing in school infrastructure? Who can afford that? This is a fee that no one will pay. That means that the school is not getting ONE RED CENT. You're comment is ridiculous.

  43.  @bankrollguwop8593  So think this is all the American's fault. All the Venezuelans have to do is get oil contracts with China and India. How would the US stop that? They can't. The truth is when the government nationalised the oil industry, they set in place the opportunity for corruption. It came when Chavez became the president and he put his own people in place to run the state owned oil company......and they ruined it. Chavez and some of his cronies skimmed off all kinds of money and any profits had to be used to placate the people, further bankrupting the oil industry. Price controls were enacted and soon businesses were going bankrupt and the government nationalised them. Things just went from bad to worse, yet the US was their biggest trade partner, in spite of sanctions being imposed in 2015. Incredibly, you just seen the film of the military firing on ordinary people. 3 million people have already left the country, because things are so grim. Yet, somehow it's the fault of the US. You're so vested in your hate of the US, you'd quite happily let the people of Venezuela starve then see the country reset its economy and bring some stability to the lives of the average citizen.

  44.  @TrilobitesRTasty  What are you even talking about? What does Biden corruption have to do with Trump? Are you trying to say that you're just fine with the Biden corruption as long as Trump isn't the president? When they were after Trump for collusion, I was all in for getting him if it was true. When they came up with nothing, I moved on. Now Biden is being centred out for overt corruption. If true, I want him to be held to account. I don't care WHAT party it is. If they're corrupt and commit crimes that can be proven.....prosecute them. No favourites. No special treatment.

  45.  @marthell6159  We're not talking about Trump. We're talking about a sitting president, NOT an ex-president. This current president's son has around 150 questionable bank transactions that have been reported to the proper authorities and nothing was done about it. If YOU or I have just 2 or 3 questionable transactions reported, we'd have the FBI, DEA, IRS and DHS on our necks but Hunter can have 150 transactions reported and NOTHING? And all you have to say is "Well Donnie was bad, too!!!". That's something that I'd expect from a 9 year old. Refusing to want to investigate a current president because a past president might have been corrupt is as dumb as it gets. INVESTIGATE ALL OF THEM. Why is that such a difficult concept??? Especially investigate the one that has the most significant impact at this moment....the current president of the United States, Joe Biden. At this moment, Joe Biden has a bigger impact on your life than Trump does, but you don't care if he's corrupt or not and that his corruption could have a severe detrimental effect on your life. NOPE....you don't care. Just get that guy that you hate. You're letting your hatred cloud your decision making abilities.

That's a lot more than "some". Then you resort to name calling. Calling Trump a conman and his supporters "ridiculous", isn't a substantive argument. Most times, when someone resorts to smearing others, that someone is a troll. So...prove that you're not a troll and tell us WHY we shouldn't vote for Trump. Strong reasons, with evidence and logic. Then you could be taken seriously. I want to hear a good argument. Name calling is for bullies in a school yard.
