Why do you suppose Republicans lost 40 seats the first time Trump was President? You obviously don’t understand mid-terms since you thought the President ran during the 2018 one so either u don’t live here or you’re that ignorant.

Trump won in 2016.

Trump did not run in the 2018 midterms, Democrats won a majority in the U.S. House, gaining 40 seats.

Ask why the Republicans couldn’t win during the 2018 midterms .

Lots of complaints offering no solutions. And then you wonder why Trump is president🙄.

Yes. Get rid of all the brilliant innovators. Then why work when you have nothing to aspire too. Just lay around and collect cash and be a non productive member of society. All this innovation BS needs to stop. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

I am begging all Democrats, Anti MAGA Republicans and Independents to enact the name TrumpCare for all those losing their HealthCare. #TrumpCare.

Since my partner worked for the ChicagoPD for over 25 years, I can now confirm you are just spouting baseless claims from your manipulated feelings.

That goes 2 ways. Ask the people who actually live there if they are seeing and feeling a better quality of life. Once evidence is provided of people feeling safe to walk the streets again, I’ll be happy to.

The bottom line here is, just because you are pro criminal / anti police, doesn’t make you the majority in our country or in the right no matter how many baseless claims and insults you throw at me.

This included reductions to trial court operations, the Department of Justice's Division of Law Enforcement, and the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. Previously, cities like Los Angeles and San Francisco had implemented or planned reductions in police spending.

California: In 2024, California proposed cuts to law enforcement and public safety due to a state deficit.

Talking points? How about your Assumptions? Maybe examine your own? I lived there for 50 years. Downtown still is not safe and business has not recovered since the Pandemic. I hope it continues especially w/ one of the worst holidays for crime and murder coming up., but thanks for your lecture.

OMG! Never mind his beliefs that no billionaires should exist and police should be defunded. And as we know, defunding police has worked out splendidly in Chicago! Socialism for everyone! BUT, he is so insanely charismatic that when NY turns into a cesspool, he can make people feel good about it!!

I'd like to suggest that Democrats start referring to No Healthcare as "TrumpCare". Trump loves putting his name on things..
