Adults? and Politics?

Sat., Feb. 15, 2020

The way Lil Miss Pelosi (like a child) acted, ripping up President Trumps speech at the State of the Union, reminded me of my childhood. If you did that in school you would have been punished. If you showed disrespect to an officer in the military you would be punished.

Democrats should not look at Mrs. Pelosi as any kind of a leader but as a distraction. She likes attention so she puts herself in the limelight to distract from the real issues.

Let us look at the issues and what can be done to fix the problems instead of fighting and belittling each other.

Get out and vote, but think about who and what your voting for.
