The primary difference between the wealthy and the poor is intellect

The culture of millennials, elitists and lefties trying to decimate the Constitution for its own political agenda and destroy America is the reason I own firearms.

The creep wrote 5 columns dated February 5.

He’s on some very strong dope and his nonsense columns reflect it.

Zach Beauchamp, whoever he is, doesn’t know S4!& from S4!n@L*.

From his profile on Vox including titles of recent articles, Zack is a know-it-all DB:

Zack Beauchamp is a senior correspondent at Vox, where he covers global politics and ideology, and a host of Worldly, Vox's podcast on foreign policy and international relations. His work focuses on the rise of the populist right across the West, the role of identity in American politics, and how fringe ideologies shape the mainstream. Before coming to Vox, he edited TP Ideas, a section of Think Progress devoted to the ideas shaping our political world. He has an MSc from the London School of Economics in International Relations and grew up in Washington, DC, where he currently lives with his wife and two (rescue) dogs.

I agree. He says “there are things Trump said that are just not true”, yet he gives no evidence. This is similar to what they call Trump lies, which, in most cases, turn out to just be differences of opinion.

When Trump finances finding the cure for AIDS and cancer, they will object and complain. Trump is doing a great job, and if they want to wear their blinders and not take part, so be it.

That reminds me of something Andrew Wilkow said; “If Donald Trump found a cure for Cancer, Democrats would be screaming about the rights of tumors”. Spot on!

Buzz Aldrin was there. I guess this guy thinks the moon landings were faked.

Plus there were a couple of Holocaust survivors. Does he think that was imaginary too?

A family member of mine- definitely not wealthy- just did his taxes. His refund, this year, is going to be about $300 more than last year with virtually the same income and deductions.

That’s not a huge amount of money, granted, but I don’t see how you can say that the tax cuts didn’t “help.”

They’re all about the identity politics. In their view, only “white” Americans are concerned about illegal immigration.

I had an interesting conversation the other day. Out of the blue, this lady I was talking with (related to work) asked me what I thought about the President: is he doing the right thing? I told her that, honestly, I believe that he is.

She told me that she agrees with me, and her son, even more so. This lady and her son belong to a group of people who are supposed to be “them” in the “us vs them” narrative. She told me that her father had come to the US from Mexico. She told me that he did it “the right way” and that he had “papers.” She remembered her parents discussing his “papers” when she was a child and that it was very important to them that he was here legally. He had, by example, taught his children the importance of obeying the laws as well as the importance and value of hard work.

They are irate that people like Pelois and Occasio-Cortez (that woman that thinks she knows everything is how she referred to her!) don’t support the President and want to allow all manner of people into the country, most of whom we know nothing about. I don’t think they are feeling much “ethno-cultural threat.”

What’s more, they aren’t alone. The left doesn’t seem to realize that, just because someone’s parent, grandparent, or even more distant ancestor came here from Mexico, does not mean that that person automatically wants to let people just roam across the border at will.

This moron must have been looking at a different SOTU speech than I was. I guess he is an imaginary writer for an imaginary magazine.
