Democratic party embraces socialism

I certainly don’t know about the rest of you out there, but I am really getting disgusted with all the garbage out there in the political arena.

What has happened to the people in this country?

You cannot give everything to everyone; it must be earned to be appreciated.

The greed of our elected officials is appalling. They care nothing about the people, only about filling their own pockets.

Back in the 1930s, my grandfather was chairman of the Blair County Democratic Party. When FDR started the give-away program with the New Deal, he said, “you can’t just give it away,” and my grandfather changed to Republican and died in 1960, still a Republican.

Some of these new congressmen/women do not know squat. They are elected by voters who know nothing and just want the freebies.

Years ago, you were able to deduct the amount you paid into Social Security — not anymore thanks to the Democrats. Now when you begin to draw your money, you pay income tax on

85 percent of it, thanks to the Democrats. The list goes on and on; check it out.

Why are the Democrats so against Donald Trump? Because he is being a businessman and not a politician.

This man donated his salary to be used to repair and upgrade our national cemeteries. This man is leading us in the right way. I don’t agree with him on everything, and I wish he’d quit shooting from the hip, but he has done a tremendous amount of good.

The Democratic party has really become the socialist party and the American people had better wake up or it will be too late.
