Squawker, you must be personally acquainted with and know a lot about “entitlement” to disparage our local farmers. The farmers in Dougherty, Baker, Crisp, Lee, Clay, Calhoun and Early counties are some of the hardest working people in the entire country. Bet you are the same one that said our teachers are overpaid.

This squawker would like to hear what Trump supporters say about their president saying multiple times that he believes Putin over the U.S. intelligence agencies (as to Russian interference in our elections and Korea’s nuclear capabilities).

Since 1972, the government has built over 3,000 miles of “sound walls” along our highways to “protect” nearby homeowners from traffic sounds. These walls cost about $2 million per mile. The government has spent over $6 billion on them. If the government can spend $6 billion on walls to protect homeowners from traffic noise, why can’t it spend $5 billion to protect our lives?

Trump’s Christian game plan is to keep us divided as a country and scare his supporters that people unlike themselves are to blame for their problems.

Run, Bernie, run!

Keep trying, Fletcher, but you’ll never convince Trump supporters that anything he says is wrong. It’s so much easier to buy in and drink that Kool-Aid than it is to think for yourself. Of course, these so-called new-age socialists are no better. Looks like a no-win all around.

What happened to comparative shopping? Residents of Albany should boycott any local business that does not have a website with their prices clearly listed.

Trump and his supporters support the Russian red flag. Democrats support the red, white and blue.

Squawker, just to nit-pick a little, paranoia is an irrational and obsessive distrust of others, while fear is primarily an agitated foreboding. You could even go so far as to say that fear is an example of intelligent foresight. While we ‘Trump-lovers’ may support President Trump, that does not mean we give unilateral blanket-approval of every action or decision he makes. And just to nit-pick a little bit more … the plural of amygdala is amygdalae, not amygdalas.

I wonder how many people know that the original Amos and Andy characters where white? It wasn’t until TV that they got black characters to play the part.

Simple fact to all Trump-haters: If Donald Trump Jr. went out and killed somebody, that would not make President Trump guilty of murder. There is no Russian collusion regarding president Trump. Deal with it.

If you get caught shoplifting at Walmart and work for Turner Job Corps you can remain on the job. But if you’re a student you get terminated. Something is seriously wrong with that picture.

President Trump declared a national emergency to build the wall and stop the flow of dangerous criminals and illegal drugs into America. Rather than prioritizing the safety and security of the American people, the socialist Democratic party decided that resisting President Trump is more important to them than keeping Americans safe.
