Feels strange. In all my 67 years I have never missed Christmas with my family. This year, we are staying at home, Zooming, calling each other. No family member has fallen to COVID-19 thus far. I’ve got so much to be grateful for. Thank you, Lord, for one more day.

Right, Mr. Grinch, all those shiftless people are lined up by the thousands at food banks because they are too lazy to “work for a living.” People like you who are comfortably well off too often find it great fun to ridicule and demean the less fortunate among us.

First Trump and now Biden are calling all their Cabinet members the greatest that are around. Let’s wait and see how they perform like in a sports game. How great were they at the end?

$100 million in political donations will buy you a lot of influence. It bought Betsy DeVos a position as secretary of education and it bought pardons for four of her brother’s Blackwater contractors who killed 17 Iraqi civilians.

Our people in uniform don’t need a pay raise, says Trump, what they really need is military bases continuing to be named after Confederate traitors.

One of the things cult leaders do to “brainwash” their followers is to deprive them of something and keep saying it’s for their own good. Kind of like depriving you of COVID-19 support because it isn’t high enough.

Trump is the lamest lame duck president in U.S. history. Trump’s “scorched earth” tirade has moved from individual Republican supporters to the entire party. The question is will they override his promised veto of their latest legislation? Don’t Republicans understand that there is power in the masses! Stop being so timid! Remember, Biden decided to run because he was disgusted with the leadership he saw in the White House. 81 million-plus voters turned out to support his candidacy! You will never lose for doing the right thing. What is it worth to gain the whole world but lose your soul? Just ask Trump!

Why did the politicians have to add so many slush fund items to the relief checks? Nontaxable dinners are not the same as putting food on the table for those that need it. Are there any honest politicians left in this country or just those looking out for themselves?

Please help me. Trump claims one of his major accomplishments was placing a large number of conservative judges on the bench. What will conservative judges do when hearing a case that liberal judges wouldn’t do? I thought that each case should be decided based upon such elements as evidence, witnesses, testimony, etc. My concern is if I ever have to come before a judge, I want to make sure my attorney petitions for the judge that will give me the best chance for a verdict in my favor. What I don’t want to believe is that justice is not blind! Conservative? Liberal? Does it matter?

To the person who blames “The Sopranos,” Donald Trump was like that before the Sopranos ever had a show. You’ve just been able to really see it these past years because he’s In The WH. This IS THE Real Donald Trump. I’ve watched it for years, I don’t understand why more people didn’t see it.

To all the idiots who think just because 14 customers leave the grocery doors we can let in 14. Guess what? The other doors also have an iPad that counts customers coming in and is synced with other grocery door-counting device and that customer number to be allowed in has been reduced to 600 recently. So yes, it’s cold, but don’t act foolish when we are just doing our job. If it’s going to be that cold, how about using your head and dressing for the weather!

As I read the Quickly column each day, I am constantly amazed at the number of empty liberal heads that Donald Trump is still living in rent-free after all this time. Someday, I’ll bet all of you people will grow up, finally move out of your parents’ basements, and become serial stalkers featured on an episode of “Live PD.”

Once Trump runs out of his convicted cronies to pardon, look for him to start giving pardons to cops and white supremacists convicted of killing Black citizens.
