One Week In, Worst President Ever

Care to provide data to back that up? And I do believe that people on "welfare" have a right to vote, regardless of their political persuasion, race, geographic location, income level, etc.

Who ware people dependent on welfare going to vote for? I have posted the big city votes and have posted links showing over 100 million Americans on some form of welfare assistance by the taxpayers but that reality goes over your head and rather that solve the problem you ignore the problem. Rather than getting people to work you promote more social spending because you say you care. If you truly cared you would focus on changing behavior not promoting dependence

lol, you get scarier with every post. You think I am living off the govt? Where does the SS money come from? You think that is govt. money I am getting? Where did mu contributions for 35 years go?

I don't recall saying those things, and have sometimes said the opposite. Perhaps you have me mixed up with someone else?

Of that large number of Americans on some form of welfare, how many vote Dem vs Repub?

Hillary Clinton won LA by 2.4 million votes and California by over 4 million, she won NYC by almost a million votes, Chicago by 700,000. Democrats control the vote in the big cities which bodes the question as to why when the big cities are where the crime and drugs are rampant and therein lies the problem. why would people who live in crime infested cities continue to vote for the same bureaucrats over and over again When was the last time Chicago had a Republican Mayor, How about LA? How about NYC? How about San Francisco, Seattle, Portland? How about Detroit?

Still waiting, calamity? Where did the money I was forced to contribute to the Federal Govt. for SS go and how is it that when I get some of that money back it is govt. money? What was the purpose of SS and why would anyone believe that tax dollars going back to the people where it came from in the first place is govt. money? When I see posts like this I question the education system in this country and total ignorance of far too many people. I await your answer?

In addition to poor people on welfare, LA, SF, Seattle, Portland, Chicago, and NYC have lots of well-educated and affluent (or wealthy) people. I've spent significant time in all but one of those cities, and overall they seem pretty nice to me.

You are just digging yourself in deeper with that hysterical interpretation. In Nixon's case his AG refusing to do his bidding was refusing to cover for him after he had committed an impeachable offense. Trump's bidding is simply enforcing our immigration laws. Nothing to do with any scandal. Do you care whether you are taken seriously or not? Criticizing Trump over policies you disagree with is one thing...going off the rails with hysterical strawman comparisons is another.

A distinction without a difference. Both fired their attorney generals for not doing their bidding. Of course there are going be small details that are different. History is like that. But the fact still remains that both presidents did it.

And attacking me does not change that.

Mayor Bloomberg was Republican. So was Rudy. Study your recent history before you post stupid things.

You're on the dole now. Quit bringing up your "glorious" past. It's irrelevant. Get a job, then you can criticize people who are on the dole; don't do it while you yourself are living on government handouts.

So, you pay into SS your whole life, and then collect from what you paid in, with a whopping 2% return and you label that living off the government? He worked to get his SS. Welfare recipients don't work to get their benefits, they just mooch off everyone else.

The poorest cities in this nation are run by Democratic Mayors and have been Democratic for decades. Makes no sense to logical thinking people

yeah...a whole "35 years" :lol:

I've been working 40, and plan to work 20 more---god willing. And, you know what? When I finally do collect SS and get medicare, I sure as hell will not be bitching about others who are on the dole. Conservative is leeching off the government and then whining about people leeching off the government.

So no answer to the question, I am on the dole because I am getting my SS contribution back? That is liberal logic. Where did my FICA tax dollars go during my 35 years of working experience? One of the dumbest comments I have seen from people in this forum and you think you have any credibility>?

The poorest states in the country are Republican and have been Republican for decades. Makes no sense to logical thinking people.

SS is not on the Public Dole, it is a self funding program paid for by payroll taxes. Your ignorance is staggering. People on welfare are on the public dole, and that isn't SS

Probably also true that the poorest states in the country are mostly run by Republican governors.

No. You are leeching off the government. At least admit it.

Besides, what makes you think working only 35 years is enough? People I know work at least 50. In my book, you're slacking.

The result -- best illustrated with the graphic above -- shows a distinct trend. People in Democratic-leaning states make more money than those in Republican-leaning states.

In fact, among the 12 states with the highest median incomes, only Alaska leans Republican. Meanwhile, six of the seven states with the lowest incomes are Republican.

Trump in office two weeks and the vitriol continues to get worse. I gave you the link to the poorest cities in the country and their political leadership. You counter with state information with no context including cost of living in those states or political leadership over time. How is that information relative when cost of living, taxes are ignored? Compare the context to cities and get back to me.

As usual, you're denying reality and playing the partisan hack.

You are all over the board trying to find some basic footing but remain in quicksand. First SS recipients are on the public dole yet you have not explained where their tax dollars went during their working careers. Then you ignore how many so called Red states have Democratic Governors and yet how many poverty stricken sanctuary cities have Democratic Mayors never having a Republican in decades if ever. You are definitely indoctrinated in that leftwing ideology and propaganda.

I really feel sorry for people like you grasping for some credibility as you continue to destroy what little you have left.
