OUR NATION WILL NOT WORK FOR WORKING PEOPLE UNLESS WE REMOVE THE CONSERVATIVE HOLD.
We have learned that people are starving and having hard times. Most people say it’s because of the rich and they are correct. It has been the wealthy of this nation that made lives difficult. When you over tax the working class as we have done for over 40 years what do you expect? Republicans have always had the big bucks and Democrats do what they can to raise money to even get into the games.If you voted for Trump I can understand in many cases why you did. However, because of your lack of political education, all you did was give us the same old wealthy rich guy who does not pay taxes and wants you to pay more taxes, election. You need to remember just because a guy seems to talk at your level does not mean he is willing to work for you.

If you voted for Trump I can understand in many cases why you did. However, because of your lack of political education, all you did was give us the same old wealthy-rich-guy-who-does-not-pay-taxes election. You need to remember just because a guy seems to talk at your level does not mean he is willing to work for you.Sure, he got up there and talked about what he had in his pants as if he was one of the guys at work and he put down Blacks, Muslims, Hispanics and anyone else who was not a White American Male. He gave you his trash talk because that is what you’re used to. He was speaking down to you and you did not even know it. You took him as if he was an equal a part of your workforce or group of people you ran with and after work stopped to have a beer with. Sure, he got up there and talked about what he had in his pants as if he was one of the guys at work and he put down Blacks, Muslims, Hispanics and anyone else who was not a White American Male. He gave you his trash talk because that is what you’re used to. He was speaking down to you and you did not even know it. You took him as if he was an equal a part of your workforce or group of people you ran with and after work stopped to have a beer with.

Donald Trump has never been a part of your group. He has never just gone out and had a beer with the working class.He was born to wealth and lived in wealth. Look at all of the Gold in the places he has. THAT IS REAL GOLD. He told you during his campaign he does not pay taxes. This kind of thinking is the reason America is in the condition it is today. It’s you, me and every working stiff out there who are paying the taxes, not the rich. Our campaign was to help all people and make sure the rich paid their fair share and who did you vote for?

Democrats have always worked for the people and sometimes I really wonder why because many of you just don’t respect the fact that Democrats are trying to help you have a better life.

Instead of voting against the wealthy you voted for him. Even Bernie Sanders told you we needed to be progressive as he said this: “The American people must make a fundamental decision,” Sanders said. “Do we continue the 40-year decline of our middle class and the growing gap between the very rich and everyone else, or do we fight for a progressive economic agenda that creates jobs, raises wages, protects the environment and provides health care for all?”

Bernie has always spoken for the Democratic Agenda because he knows as well as I do that to help working people we must remove the wealth that has been destroying our nation for over 40 years. Hillary Clinton had that same plan and was ready to take that on. She has always worked for people. The wealthy painted her as a crook. Who got elected? The real crook.

Democrats, created Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Fought for Welfare Benefits, Civil Rights, Unemployment Insurance, National Labor Relations Board, the 8 Hour Work Day-5 Day Work Week- Work Place Breaks & Overtime Pay. Democrats Fought for Workers Compensation, for child labor laws, for Holiday Pay, Medical Leave, Minimum wages, Workplace safety, Affirmative Action, Women’s Rights, Tax Fairness, Veterans pay and Benefits, Consumer Protection, Credit Cardholders Bill of Rights, Funding for our schools, and Grants to help our children attend college, and Environmental Regulations. It’s the Democrats who want Financial Regulations on Wall and it’s the Democrats who created the Affordable Health Care for Everyone. Democrats Fought for Hate Crime Legislation and Children’s Health Legislation for 11 Million Children without Health Care. Democrats Fought for Voting Rights Act, National Voter Registration, for Largest Deficit Cutting Plan in History, for Clayton Anti-Trust Act, for Securities & Exchange Act, Fought for National School Lunch Program

You see one thing of great importance is the Conservatives in this nation who for the most part are the wealthy never wanted you to have any of these things. We lost about 75% of the tax revenue this nation used to collect from the wealthy and the corporations when Reagan was in office. This is a fact that you can look up. That is why it was important this year to have Democrats in office so we could change the judges that have protected the rich all these years.
