Proud to be American: I sure do hope every American gave thanks for living in the USA. Yes, we have some downsides, but we are so blessed to have educated people to address our challenges. I’m so proud of our medically trained people to step up to the plate and take care of the sick. Bravo to them. The TV and entertainers trained to shift gears to keep America happy and informed. The caring folks who are sure to make sure people are feed and clothed. The churches made sure to take care of the need and those who are homebound. What a beautiful team of Americans. I’m so proud and thankful to live in such a beautiful country.

No one worse than Flynn: There doesn’t seem to be any shortage of scamps, scumbags or scoundrels to pardon in Donald Trump’s inner circle. But none are any worse than Michael Flynn, who not only betrayed his principles but his country as well.

Biden just copying Obama: This is regarding the election. I wouldn’t vote for Biden because all he ever did was talk about the virus. All we’re getting in this whole deal is Obama all over again, including his people who worked for him. I don’t see where we are getting any big changes, and I was a Democrat. So, there you go people. Have a nice day.

Crazy comments from POTUS: Trump’s telling everyone that the votes can be flipped like a switch and your vote is changed to something else. He says this is how the Democrats won the election. But he’s calling on the people of Georgia to get to the polls that flip the switch that took the votes away. How contradictory is that? Sometimes you have to sit back, look at yourself and ask, did I really mean to vote for him? This is just getting crazy. He also says if Joe Biden couldn’t prove where his votes came from, then he can’t come to the White House.

Count every legal vote: Everyone should have patience with the election recount. Every legal vote should count. Illegal votes should be taken away. Citizens should have complete faith in our electoral system.
