Press still unfair to GOP

We all have been hearing about the press being unfair to the Republicans. Well this paper is no different.

I noticed that on the very first column in Wednesday’s paper on page three, the following statement was printed there. "Trump releases earnings, taxes paid for 2005." Well, if this paper was not so biased in its reporting, it would have found out that he did NOT release them, they were taken illegally, by some person (not a Republican I would bet). It would appear that there should be a little better investigation done before printing junk like that. As some of us really do read this paper. Too bad that it is the only one around. I believe that it would be really refreshing to see some of those large cartoons on page three ridicule the Democrats as you do the Republicans.

I for one, am getting really tired of hearing about how those dastardly Russians have upset the elections. All I hear is how they took control of the election and affected the outcome. Thank God they did, (if they did). I don’t blame them at all, I blame our own government for not having the knowledge to stop anyone from hacking into our systems.

Of course, what else would the Democrats have to talk about if not that? The witch hunt on the wiretap, the hacking of the computers, Trump's daughter's jewelry, and etc. issues should all be conducted from Salem, Mass., as that is where you really get a fair trial for being a witch, from what history tells us.

It seems that the Dems have nothing better to do than try to disrupt the function of the new president. I would be ashamed to tell anyone that I am a Democrat, after that childish demonstration that they demonstrated to the whole world during the president’s address to the Congress. All sitting on their hands and not standing. Really??? You Democrats voted for those people to sit there like that and show the whole world just what kind of system we have. Shame on you!

Yes, Chief Fink, I agree with you. It is really hard to be a vet these days and sit back and see what our country has become, and see those that are trying their best to stop it from becoming better.

As the Liningers so aptly put it “God bless Trump, God and guns and America.”
