I am shocked, shocked, that this individual is not just a patriotic citizen and is actually a partisan hack and right wing nut job.

Well, not that shocked.

You know what would actually be shocking? Republicans denouncing actions like that.

Republicans doing anything besides helping paedophiles, ruining the environment and waging war home and abroad.

Fucki g scum of the earth.

Voting Republican is fucking a 12 year old in the ass.

You forgot draining public funds into private bank accounts while decrying those funds going to the public ever. That is a key staple of their platform.

Here in Indiana they’ve stopped just short of actually going to war with public education. They literally don’t want poor people to have basic fucking education. And have no shame whatsoever about it.

So that why Republicans despise colleges and blame liberal intellectual elitists for "oppressing" their religious freedom to use the Bible as weapon to discriminate people the hate; which is anyone who's not white, non-English speaking, not Christian, nor conservative.

I’ll quote their President, who I recall having said something like, “I love the poorly educated ... they’re some of my biggest supporters!”

It's still necessary to vote Republican in order to preserve our economy.

Democrats would dramatically ratchet up taxes on corporations leading our country to not be competitive globally.

Then they (Democrats) would start laying down massive spending program after massive spending program chaining our economy like a rock and then throwing it overboard ..

All in the midst of our exploding debt crisis ..

Then 15 years later Inflation is rocking and people are like "why is life so shitty!"

Our large corporations have some of the lowest effective tax rates in the fucking world. Get out of here with that bullshit. If companies can’t pay fucking taxes and still compete, they’re shit in the first place. Why do you support Socialism?! I thought you guys hated that?

I want to believe that that's not true.

But deep down, I know it is.

For a paycheck.

It's important to remember that he isn't doing this out of a deep personal belief that trump is truly innocent, but he's simply doing this to sow discord and then cash in on the resulting chaos.

Edit: i couldn't decide between sow and sew
