I see where the liberal Democrats are now blaming President Trump for gas being $3 or more a gallon but when Obama was in and gas was over $4 a gallon and his secretary of energy wanted it to be closer to $6 a gallon that was OK because it was going to save the environmen­t. Then in 2015 and 2016 when gas prices started to go down, states just added more taxes on a gallon of gasoline. The word “Democrats,” now you know why the last four letters spells “rats.”

This bathroom policy for the transgende­r facilities of the transgende­r students at the Boyertown High School, if the students would have stayed the way they were when they were born, this would not be a problem. I think it’s a money scam just like some other things in this country.

Enough already everyone complainin­g about these junk cars. They serve a vital function. If you want to travel Farmington Avenue in Upper Pottsgrove you really should use a junk car because the new car will be shaken apart. If you want to have a nice road to travel on try North Hanover Street when you’re headed north. They did a nice job on that. That’s all the liquid fuel tax at work that they collect off of Farmington Avenue. But those junk cars they do serve a purpose.

I just have to shake my head whenever I hear someone claim that Trump has accomplish­ed more than any other president and that all this country’s problems are because of the Democrats. You know who gives them their informatio­n? Donald Trump does. This is just another case of the blind sheep believing every lie that comes out of their shepherd’s mouth. Come on Trumpsters, it’s time to start thinking for yourself.

This is to Four More Years Baby. I hate to break your bubble but your 2017 taxes that you just filled out had nothing to do with President Trump. The Tax Collector

I see Donald Trump tweeted about Memorial Day and guess who he talked about? Yes, himself. And he said that those who died for our country would be happy and proud about how well we are doing. Then he went on to talk about unemployme­nt, blacks, Hispanics and our military. How sad how this man’s mind works. If President Obama would’ve sent out a message like that on Memorial Day Republican­s would’ve had a field day.

Our weather has been very different. We cannot control what comes down from the sky. This past Sunday we had a heavy rainfall so quickly that streets were flooding, creeks overflowin­g, washing some roadways out causing roads to be closed. One thing you cannot stop is the flow of water.

The Hill School had Beech Street closed in front of their place on Saturday. Very inconvenie­nt, very inconvenie­nt, but the Hill School they get what they want and they don’t pay for anything either so thank you.

This national anthem nonsense is getting way out of hand and out of control. Who all really believes people at home, people at bars watching the games, people in the stands, anyone in government or our president stands when the national anthem is sung? Who cares? Stop saying it’s the center of the universe. It’s not. Everyone needs to grow up and stop being little childish babies.

I’d like to know why, when a handicappe­d person walking with a walker because they have trouble walking goes into a restaurant and the hostess marches you all the way to the farthest end of the restaurant to seat you instead of seating you near the door if there’s available seats? I don’t know why that is but they can see walking is not a pleasure for you.

It’s time for all crooked lying Democrats to step down.

Roseanne Barr’s post about Valerie Jarrett who was black and worked for the Obama administra­tion said she looked like a baby that came from the Muslim Brotherhoo­d and “The Planet of the Apes.” They rightfully cancelled her show. Some years ago she screamed the national anthem and when done grabbed her crotch and spit. She is a sick person and should never have had a TV show, however one of Trump’s favorites.

Oh what a big joke that Roseanne Barr that they got rid of her. That’s stupid. How about those picking on President Donald Trump? Do they do anything about them anything they say? No, no, no. People ought to fight for her.

This is in relation to Starbucks’ new rules. If I were a homeless person and entered a Starbucks with my bundled belongings and stayed all day purchasing maybe a cup of coffee occasional­ly, would I be allowed to do that? Just Wondering
