As we approach the holidays, the last thing I want to do is talk about is impeachment. We are in the third year of Trump’s presidency yet those who hate him remain unhappy. Arguing with them is wasted energy when you can find other pleasurable pursuits.   

 I feel sorry for them.  The left has wasted almost 1,200 days with fantasies of revolution and removal from office. It never occurs to the left that he can be re-elected. That means eight years of your life wasted on Trump. I don’t get this resistance. What has President Trump stopped you from doing?  

 They say he’s a racist but when you ask the left to name a specific policy that has discriminated against people of color they become enraged. It’s hard to argue Trump is a racist when he is polling with Hispanics at 31% and with African Americans at 34 %.  

 How Trump can be racist when he signed a criminal justice reform bill worked with Senator Tim Scott (R-S.C.) on Opportunity Zones, named Ben Carson as Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, has funded historically black colleges and has steered many minorities from food benefits to jobs with the lowest black and Hispanic unemployment of any president?  

 They claim Trump is a dictator. Do they know what a dictator is? You had Hollywood actors such as Robert De Niro and Kathy Griffin threaten violence toward the president — do they think they could do that in Iran or North Korea? Can they name one policy Trump did that bypassed Congress or ignored the Supreme Court? Does he want to abolish private insurance and have the government control all your healthcare needs? That is the textbook definition of fascism, when the government runs all aspects of your life.  

 I admit I don’t get lathering yourself into a rage because people don’t agree or think like you.  

I understand someone not liking Trump, but why should I care about how you feel?  

 I support Trump but I’m not the gum on his shoe. I’m open to alternatives. Unfortunately, the Democrats are not the off-ramp. I accept that politics is dysfunctional, both Republicans and Democrats are useless. Neither are for working people. Both parties are about seizing your freedoms and policing those that oppose them.  

 While I’m not happy with the state of our nation, I’m not for socialism. Socialism is like robbing someone’s bank account, then buying them McDonald’s and claiming you’re feeding them. Socialism sounds good in theory but the reality is if Wall Street believed Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders could be president they would flee the country.  

 Sixty-three million people voted for Trump. The Looney Left is now trying to nullify people’s votes, which is why we have the Second Amendment — to prevent tyranny.  

 I think Donald Trump is doing a fantastic job. He’s not stopping me from doing anything.  

I don’t see Trump preventing anyone from going shopping, investing, going to school, or living the American Dream.
