I'm from the government
and I'm here to help.'

it's just that they know so much that isn't so.'
-Ronald Reagan

That's someone who works

I believe that President Trump will.

No President has had so many working against him: both parties and the news media yet he is accomplishing more in 4 months than obama did in 8 years. No President has had the previous President working so hard to destroy him like President Trump has. obama and hillary will not give up and become patriotic Americans.

Obummer is still working to us that he is the worst president ever. I don't think he got the memo that confirmed it yet.

Trump needs to toss both of them where the Sun don't shine and leave them there till they rot. We could call it justice.

President "45" Trump (R), Rainr, has already proved an invincibility to 24/7/365, "resistance," from the entire "lefty" cabal, (D) politics, MSM and "Hollyweird," and I don't believe {and "lefty" doesn't believe}, there's another person on earth who could survive the assault. That's why "lefty" is trying so (D)esperately and frantically {and futilely}, in their obnoxious attempts to impeach, (D)isqualify, impinge, slander, (D)elegitimize and (D)ismiss President "45" Trump (R). FAT CHANCE!!! NO "(D)O-OVERS!!!" "WE" have been using the "E*******l College," for POTUS e******ns since our founding, and it was perfectly OK until "lefty" (D)ecided {in November, 2016}, they couldn't lose an e******n to "the enemy" {BHO, 2009}, a (D)amn "Bible and gun-clinging" {BHO, 2009}, Republican conservative constitutionalist American; or it would set the secular/radical liberal progressive Marx/Alinsky "lefty" regime (D), back to before "red-(D)iaper" Alinsky (D), was even born; 1909. And it (D)amn sure did!!! GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO PRESIDENT "45" DONALD J. TRUMP (R); JUST LIKE THE WEATHER!!! Now; "(D)RAIN THAT {RADICAL LOONY SECULAR JACKASS LIBERAL PROGRESSIVE "LEFTY"} SWAMP!!!" Yates, Comey, Brennan, Rice and Power are certainly a good start!!! "MAKE AMERICA SAFE, PROSPEROUS AND GREAT AGAIN!!!" Something "lefty," world-wide, JUST CAN'T STAND!!! YIPPI-YI-YO-KAYAH!!! When "lefty" squirms, whines, wails, wimpers, plots, schemes, r**ts, l**ts, burns, vandalizes, protests and (D)emonstrates, "WE" KNOW "WE" are on the right track!!!

Pennlynn wrote a post about honesty this morning and seeing this immediately after, clarified the issue. Trump, like Reagan
has the gift of bringing the issue to its most basic form, can see through all the bluster surrounding it and tell it like it is. He is not a wordsmith, using flowery speech to convince us of his brilliance. His brilliance lies in being able to say so much, without excess.
He also avoids the innuendo of falsehood, carefully crafted into the speech of most polititions. The left calls it simpleminded, but
those of us who want t***h find it irresistable and refreshing.

I remember that quote. It reminded me of The Taxman from The Beatles' Revolver album, composed by George and one recording where Paul did the lead guitar. He usually did bass.

If I am correct, the income tax rate at the highest bracket, which The Beatles were surely in, in Britain was whopping 96%. It resulted in them taking many extreme steps, such as taking usresidence in British island colonies, the Caribbean I think, to spare them the burden. They didn't work.

[Verse 1]
Let me tell you how it will be
There's one for you, nineteen for me

[Hook]
Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman

[Verse 2]
Should five percent appear too small
Be thankful I don't take it all

[Hook]
Cause I'm the taxman, yeah I'm the taxman

[Verse 3]
If you drive a car, car, I'll tax the street
If you try to sit, sit, I'll tax your seat
If you get too cold, cold, I'll tax the heat
If you take a walk, walk, I'll tax your feet

[Hook]
Taxman
Cause I'm the taxman, yeah I'm the taxman

[Verse 4]
Don't ask me what I want it for (Haha, Mr. Wilson)
If you don't want to pay some more (Haha, Mr. Heath)



[Hook]
Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman

[Verse 5]
Now my advice for those who die (Taxman!)
Declare the pennies on your eyes (Taxman!)

[Hook]
Cause I'm the taxman, yeah, I'm the taxman
And you're working for no one but me (Taxman!)
