Seems like every election cycle, a bunch of bullshit prromises get dug up , remixed and rehashed. Here's a couple things that voters fall for on a regular basis:
- "I'll lower insurance rates for homeowners" - Well, short of passing draconian laws, the insurance business ios a free-market business, and any government tampering usual end up with higher, not lower, premiums.
- "I'll drive down the price of Gasoline" - Again, even the POTUS has zero power of what gas costs, because fuel oil is priced as a global market, always and only driven by supply and demand. The only thing a President can do is create an environment that restricts supply, driving prices up.
- "I'll lower healthcare costs" - Yeah, two words for that: Barack Obama.
- "I'll promise you the moon and the stars, and then not deliver a thing you thought I'd do for you" - the only honest thing they could say.
Here's the deal. Disregard and forget altogether all of the promises made during campaigns. Check the quality of the character involved. Good family values? Someone who's actually had a real job, not just 'public service'. Shit like that matters. Not what they claim they can deliver if you put them in office.
I have a single phlosophy about politicians in general - anyone who wants the job is the wrong person for it. You figure that one out for yourself.

In 1960 only 5% of mothers were unmarried in the USA, and in 2025, that rate was 42%. That’s an increase of over 800%. As a result, many more children are living with solo parents.
On average, 6.8% of children around the world under the age of 18 live in a single-parent household. But in the US, that number is 23%. Where are all the Fathers in these kid's lives?

Going in to Germany, 1945. None of these KIDS needed 'a safe place' to avoid being insulted or bullied.
Our parents (if you're my age) were made of different,
hardier stock. Something we may never see again.

Two words. Hypocrisy and pandering....
English is a strange language. As someone somewhere said about England and the US: "Two great civilizations seperated by a common language".
In England, if someone invites you over to their house 'for a cup of tea', that's what you're gonna get. If they ask you over 'for tea', however, you're going to get a light meal. Makes perfect sense, right?

Take a look at all of the people behind this guy - supporting him. Almost exclusively white, mostly male, and not a single muslim to be seen anywhere - except in the foreground. Makes my head hurt. Michigan Democrat Senate candidate Abdulrahman El-Sayed has criticized anti-fentanyl laws designed to punish drug dealers and deter drug use as draconian while advocating for supervised consumption sites where individuals can use illegal drugs under observation. El-Sayed has accused his Republican Senate opponent, Mike Rogers, of voting to “EXPAND the opioid epidemic,” despite previously criticizing laws designed to punish fentanyl dealers and deter drug use while advocating for supervised spaces where individuals can use illegal drugs.
And people in te hudreds of thousands will vote for this guy. Michigan is losing a lot of the red that makes it a 'purple State'.
