There is much hatred in our country. The division is at an all-time high. It seems like no one can get along anymore.

MAGA Republicans have been labeled “fascists” by our own president. He might as well have said “Republicans are fascists.”

For my part, I don’t really look to Donald Trump as a person I would like to be best friends with, but I looked to him to run our country in a safe and prosperous way for WE THE PEOPLE. As the older generation is fading and yet we can remember how much easier life should be, President Trump related to that and did what he could to protect and make life easier for all of us. I know that bills and the cost of groceries and gas are out of this world, especially for the elderly and retired that are on fixed incomes.

Now under President Joe Biden and his socialist Democrats, we are all facing higher expenses on everything. If Biden had just left things alone instead of erasing any good for us, I would have no problem with him just sitting at his tiny desk. It was because of the Trump label!

I have no fancy words to describe how difficult it is for us today, but I do know how it is affecting each and every one of us. People are arguing more and many Americans are just thinking this inflation and open southern border are OK.

We the people are the ones paying for all the unnecessary spending. Just like paying student debt. WE are the ones paying for this. I don’t have any children in school.

Our military is weak but we keep sending weapons and billions of dollars to Ukraine. I wonder what “pot” they are draining for all of this.

All I know, it is getting harder to do, buy or even enjoy life anymore, and it is getting worse every day. God bless America. We will be under government control if this keeps going.
