That’s easy to say from a place of privilege. As someone with a chronic disease who struggles to pay for expensive medication every month, it’s hard not to let it where me down or stress me out if I were to not be able to afford what I need. If Republicans would have had their way and truly gutted Obamacare, it would have generated a lot more suffering in my life.

Yeah. I grew up in a so-called place of privilege.

The fact of the matter is that I grew up in a dysfunctional family. I was abused, beaten by my father. I didn't have any emotional support from my parents whatsoever. We struggled with money. I basically lived a living hell.

So stop telling me about my place of privilege.

The reality isn't how you think it is for everyone.

There’s around a 50% correlation with clinical depression people with my disease have and Im fairly sure this number would be lower if American’s actually gave a fuck about trying to help the chronically ill.

I can understand that. I was depressed as well. I've been deeply depressed. But I found a way out by myself.

These people who suffer badly were highly traumatized in their childhoods.

Study the work of Dr. Gabor Mate; he has a lot of YouTube videos about trauma and healing. Also, you can heal yourself from any chronic health problem that you have. Just give it a chance.

There is a book that can help you heal: https://www.amazon.com/Waking-Tiger-Healing-Peter-Levine/dp/155643233X

God speed my friend!

Trump is on his way to an easy win in 2020, according to Moody’s accurate election model.

If you watch the news for 10-15 minutes a day is crystal clear, Trump is gonna win easily. If you live in your own bubble you might think the other guys have a chance out of wishful thinking.

The only way to stop him is to prove all his money laundering businesses at the Trump Tower, but that's hard... and that's why he doesn't want to show his taxes. His taxes are the only way to prove his links with the Russian Mafia.

Trump paid all the taxes legally required.

On the other hand, when it comes to federal taxes, you have the right not to pay them and of course, Trump didn't.

The system allows you not to pay federal taxes.

Every American citizen can avoid paying federal taxes.

@The Don Finding loopholes is not the "law of the land." That's why they're called "loopholes." In a high-conscious society, no loopholes would exist.

The terms "tax avoidance" and "tax evasion" are often used interchangeably, but they are very different concepts. Basically, tax avoidance is legal, while tax evasion is not.

I'm okay with no loopholes. Get rid of them if you can.

You can still avoid paying taxes without loopholes. It is legal.

What Trump has done is nothing like claiming tax exemptions for donating to charity. What he has done is defraud the government of millions of dollars of his taxes over the years, which is illegal. There's a good reason why Trump, unlike Bush, Reagan or even Nixon, has refused to release his tax returns.

There is too much noise around President Trump perpetrated by the left and the media. Too much screaming. Too many scandals fabricated out of nowhere. Too many investigations. In other words, too much shit.

Let the President do his God damn job!

We, as conservatives, didn't scream at Obama for his policies although we disagreed with them.

We respected the fact that Obama was our president.

I expect from you the same.

Just stop complaining and let the President do his job; he was democratically elected.

If you don't like Trump, that's understandable, but stop with the act of projection; you can vote him out of office in the next election. That's how democracies work.

@The Don Obama made most people feel good but bent his knees to Wallstreet. Trump makes people feel bad and also bends his knees to Wallstreet. The US government is printing 190 billion a day under Trump. 

Left, Right, libs and conservative Politicians in America are all the same devils. 

Gotta love the charity dinner to the catholic church that already has more money than God.

Well. I was talking that it is possible that some of the dirty money from laundering can be discovered. Remember he used his Hotel The Trump tower to create a market or a place were you can invest/buy anonymously. That wasn't about taxes, that was to attract mobsters with money from the Russian mafia to be laundered. And in the meantime Trump sold his apartments and stuff. Most of the time at values much higher of that in the market. So, make your own conclusions. 

The Taj Mahal paid the largest fine ever levied against a casino for having “willfully violated” anti-money-laundering rules. And that's something known publicly, so I think there's a lot of finger pointing towards him having done a lot of criminal activities. Democrats would have much better luck if they go through that route to make the impeachment than if the go for this stupid quid pro quo, that anyone can deny, say it's hearsay or simply say that is not enough for impeachment. Probably they think it is so hard to prove those Trump links to the russian mafia without his taxes that they choose this way, that is more complicated. I dunno.

Some guys on the news have compared being a Trump supporter with being a member of a cult. The similarities are fascinating.

That's how he got all the votes. He's good at appealing the masses.
