More Blaming

Editor, Times-Union:
Democrats often seem like bullies that complain that they bruised their knuckles on the skull of their victim and then they expect sympathy. Lately, Democrats have been talking about affordability even though they are the reason for things being so expensive. But they like to blame Trump for the high prices or not bringing them down fast enough. I heard Senator Schumer say Trump hadn't lowered prices even though the gas we use in our vehicles has been a lot less expensive than it was when Biden was president. Maybe he doesn't buy gas or eggs that have gone down in price.
The latest government shutdown was blamed on Republicans not wanting to maintain high deductions for Obamacare which is proving to be the "Unaffordable Care Act." Democrats wanted the deductions to end by the end of this year. Maybe they thought they would be controlling Congress and could keep the deductions and extend them. If Obamacare were affordable and cost $2,500 less for families as Obama bragged, why is there a health care crisis? Obama wanted to make us believe he had solved the high cost for health care crisis. Instead, he made it worse. Bernie Sanders complains about oligarchs controlling politics. Yet he allows health care companies to make billions of dollars they didn't make before Obamacare became the law of the land. And when Trump suggested people being given money for health care and choosing which companies they want to deal with, Democrats say he wants people to die. Then again, maybe Democrats like to extort money from taxpayers and give it to rich people; Robin Hood in reverse.
People are attacking Trump and his Secretary of War for destroying drug boats and killing the people aboard them. That would be like complaining that someone shot a rabid dog instead of petting it. The men that survived that were killed were calling in for help to unload the drugs that would kill Americans. Democrats might as well brag that they wanted Americans to die from drug overdoses that Trump prevented.
Democrats have tried to destroy Trump for a decade because he dared run for president and become the president twice. In 2016 I knew about the perfectly legal NDA with Stormy Daniels and still voted for him. But Democrats had a business expense considered a felony. That would be like trying a person for murder after he runs over a skunk. Democrat reasoning stinks like that skunk. I bet they would say the skunk is a striped kitty cat and smells like perfume and shame you for not believing them.
