Massive voter fraud uncovered

Be careful what you wish for. You claim to be smarter, time will tell. When there is no wall, when there is no victory against ISIS, when manufacturing stays overseas, when your health care cost soar even higher, when the effects of climate change become more pronounced, when everything that was said during the campaign turns out to be a ploy to get your vote, will you still claim to be smarter than you?
Your boy Trump is begging the American People to give him a "Chance", the reality is Trump is worst the GW Bush!!!

What Trump Tweeted this morning...

Trump on Tuesday said : "I will be asking for a major investigation into VOTER FRAUD, including those registered to vote in two states, those who are illegal and.... even, those registered to vote who are dead (and many for a long time). Depending on results, we will strengthen up voting procedures!"

I'm registered in Maryland, Texas, Oklahoma and California.

But wait....

Here's the good part.

I am registered as a Democrat.

That's exactly what Trump was trying to. convey
Not that I would vote more than once. The thought has never crossed my mind.

My name should have been removed years ago.

I agree that you should be removed from the voter roles within a reasonable timeframe.

I would make it a mandatory 3 years. If you haven't voted you should be required to re-register.

When I returned to Maryland from California I had to register to vote.

Heritage Foundation Chief Economist Steve Moore explained in testimony before the Ways and Means Committee, “At 2 percent growth the economy doesn’t spin off enough jobs to increase wages, and tax revenues grow much too slowly to balance the budget.”
The recession officially ended more than 6 years ago. Wages and incomes have always grown in recoveries, not declined. Moreover, the American historical record is the deeper the recession, the stronger the recovery. The economy is supposed to boom in a recovery to catch up with its long term economic growth trendline. But over 6 years after the recession ended, that still has not happened. Instead, what we have gotten under President Obama is the worst recovery from a recession since the Great Depression." Realizing The Super Bowl Of American Economic Growth

8 More Obamacare Co-ops Will Probably Shut Down
21. the United States had lost its once-enormous global lead in middle-class pay, based on international income surveys over the last three decades. After-tax median income in Canada appears to have been higher last year than the same measure in this country. The poor in Canada and much of western Europe earn more than the poor here. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/04/29/u...dgety-boys-and-a-sputtering-economy.html?_r=0
22. Middle aged people laid off and unable to find work are taking another way out. They're killing themselves. Suicide rates are soaring, according to federal data released last week. Especially in economically depressed states and job-starved upstate New York. People in need of work are twice as likely to take their own lives as employed people, and people fired in their forties and fifties find it hardest to get hired again.
That makes boosting economic growth a life- and- death issue. But you wouldn't know it listening to Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. President Obama whitewashes reality, claiming the "American economy is pretty darn good right now."

According to the Congressional Budget Office (CBO), out of the 38 million young men in the U.S. in 2014, 16 percent were jobless (5 million or 13 percent) or incarcerated (1 million or 3 percent).

26. "WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. economy created the fewest number of jobs in more than five years in May as employment in the manufacturing and construction sectors fell sharply, suggesting a deterioration in the labor market ...Nonfarm payrolls increased by only 38,000 jobs last month, the smallest gain since September 2010, the Labor Department said on Friday. Underscoring the report's weakness, employers hired 59,000 fewer workers in March and April than previously reported. While the unemployment rate fell three-tenths of a percentage point to 4.7 percent in May, the lowest since November 2007, that was in part due to people dropping out of the labor force."

27. "Then came the jobs numbers. Employers added 38,000 jobs in May, the weakest performance since September 2010. Revisions to previous payroll data showed employers added a combined 59,000 fewer jobs in April and March than previously reported. That brought average monthly job growth in the past three months to 116,000, a sharp slowdown from the average growth of 219,000 over the prior 12 months.

Today we have college grads — along with working moms and 60-somethings — flipping burgers at Wendy’s and stocking the aisles at Walmart. Left-wing groups and union leaders are now demanding “a living wage” for jobs that were never intended to be held by heads of households. Who’s against higher wages for American workers? But wasn’t this what Obamanomics was supposed to deliver?
Seven years ago, Barack Obama promised a progressive workers paradise — a recovery from recession that would leave no one behind. Hope and Change would deliver high employment and rising wages. No one bought into this idyllic vision more than college kids.
President Obama and his supporters proclaim that he has saved America from the second Great Depression — a message we will hear again over and over in the months ahead.

"OBAMA: Anyone claiming that America's economy is in decline is peddling fiction.” Obama: Anyone Claiming America's Economy Is In Decline Is Peddling Fiction

OMG!!!!

You probably imagine that ObamaCare is still a great idea, too.....


Just one more failure by this tin-pot dictator, the titular head of the LGBT movement, to impose policies that will injure the American people.

Look around....and remember those who put this man in office.


Let's stipulate this:

Barack Hussein Obama, the selectee of the Liberals/Democrats has been

a. the worst steward of the American economy in neigh on 100 years

and

b. has left the world in the worst turmoil, and closer to nuclear chaos than any President in memory.


True?
And W, his corrupt bubble, world depression, stupidest wars ever, Reaganism rolling on, and the most mindless and total GOP obstruction never happened! Stupidest, most misinformed voters voters in the modern world.



Second request.

You claimed that I offered 'fake news,' yet when I provided three dozen linked revelations of Obama's failures.....you didn't state why they were 'fake."

Where you consciously lying...or do you not understand the term "fake"?


Get a move on,you dunce.



Oh....and if you'd like a list twice as long....be happy to oblige.




Or...are you ready to agree that Obama is a dirt-eating low-life crypto-Islamist back-stabbing infanticide-supporting, inept and incompetent snake with an unbroken record of failure, both as a President and as a human being?


Speak up!
All your spam and conclusions aren't on Obama, dupe, they're on W and 8 years of ridiculous GOP obstruction, and continuing Reaganist pander to the rich idiocy. DUH.


So, we agree....not a one of the 3 dozen examples of Obama's ineptitude could be characterized as "fake."

Excellent.


You, on the other hand, remain eight pawns short of a gambit.

Have someone explain that to you.
