Hey Frank,
I got news for you, Trump will be back in 4 years. Our President lost (barely, may I add), because the LOSERS aka Democrats, want more, endless handouts from the taxpayers. Why can’t they WORK!!!!!! Novel concept for them. I was a socialist/democrat, until I started making bank at Mossy pushing tin, and then I got slammed by the taxman, and I saw where my taxes where being spent-on socialist programs,wait till your taxes goes up!
Okay Ricky Sawyer, you were a “socialist/ democrat” before you started making money. Hmmm, what does that tell us? Now you back a real loser, an autocrat, a tyrant, a neo-fascist. Nice going. When will your guy concede?
There used to be a saying that went something like “if you are not a Democrat when you are young, then you have no heart; if you are not a Republican when you are old, you have no head.”
I’m glad that I never got old and still have a heart at age 68, unlike Mr. Sawyer, who appears to like to call people names rather than enter into a meaningful dialogue.
I suspect that I pay more taxes than Mr. Sawyer. I do know that my taxes went up under the Trump tax “reform” bill, unlike millionaires and corporations.
Actually the old saying was, “If you weren’t a socialist when you were young, you had no heart; if you weren’t a capitalist when you were older, you had no brain.” Or something like that. I agree with you Paul, I never got older.
I’ve seen this discussion many times, and everyone seems to have heard a different origin story for the (various but similar) quote(s).
The truth is fascinating. The origin goes WAY back:
https://quoteinvestigator.com/2014/02/24/heart-head/
Thank you for that link! I’m especially tickled that one of the citations is from F. Guizot, the namesake of an OB/Point Loma street.
I think a more accurate version would be, when you were young and had no money, you were a Democrat but when you got old and had money, you became a Republican.
He won’t be back in four years because his orange ass will be in a NY jail. Ya can’t pardon yourself against State charges, and there are enough of those to go around his whole corrupt fam-damnily.
Yay: the tyrant has been toppled!
Betcha that thanks to Dr, Donald, Toronto’s Brookfield Properties, the Midway’s new real estate Boss, has a tax deal to die for. Rick Sawyer shoulda employed one of The Donald’s tax boys. It’s going to be a hellava job to clean up the Trump’s global mess; however Europe and Asia did it after World War II, so I suppose we can too.
Yay Frank, All old sayings, do not stand the test of time.
Donny, can you hear us: you are fired!
Waiting for Biden (D.CT) to lock up Frump supporters like Frank Roosevelt (D.NY) did to those feared enemies of the state during World War II. That’ll show ’em for having the temerity to speak out in support of Frump.
No, I’d send them to the Island of Misfits for having the stupidity of speaking out in support of stupidity.
Joe was never a representative from Connecticut. Nobody is going to lock up supporters of T??MP unless they are breaking a law. Now, T??MP himself is a different story. So are his family members . . . orange jumpsuit for the orange man should be our aim.
The NY AG is just waiting for Jan 21st.
As I said, the work is now just starting. Here’s a saying: Don’t drop the ball, voters!
The 2020 Election as a Triumph for Democracy? Hold the Hosannas
Even high voter turnouts mask the reality of that “affluent authoritarianism” that now governs America.

seal, can we just enjoy the moment for a while before starting all of this?
Yes, thank you. Anybody who calls Biden “sleepy Joe” just falls into the Trump narrative at this point.
The new age Democrats is communist hiding behind the Democrat sign.
I really hope this kind of eloquence? disappears as the t-rumpers fade away.
Didn’t Trump say that he loved the poorly educated?
