Sorry but I gotta keep busting your chops on this one. What does skin color have to do with anything. And as far as your “out of touch” statement....what is in touch????

the things that are in touch to the clueless young people are as follows:

1. They’ve forgotten how we got here in the first place.

2. Their work ethic sucks.

3. They want the government to take care of them. The biggest round of applause Obama ever received was when he announced in a press tour at a college that you could stay on your parents health insurance till your 24. 
4. They have been indoctrinated by a socialist school system starting in grade school. 
5. They didn’t read their history books.

So how is being in touch with these young kids going to move this country in the right direction without turning us into a banana republic?

and since I railed on the young kids, I’m also going to rail on the parents who got them there. But...some of the kids who were taught the right way to go by their parents still turned into little leeches. So it’s hard for me to blame their parents. Read number 4 again.  Ok I’ll stop.

Geez calm down grandpa.
 

I didn’t mention the youth that you are so terrified of. And if you would get out and meet a few you would realize that the vast majority are nothing like the ones you keep bringing up. Yeah there are some horrible ones out there. Thursday night my 3 beautiful daughters, their mother, and I were all walking through a parking lot at a public beach in Gulf Shores. Some guys with a big Trump flag were circling the parking lot stumping for Trump. They pulled up next to the girls and said “Vote for Trump beautiful!” And my oldest daughter very politely said “No thanks”. Which was me with “Well then fuk you, you stupid lady!” Now I’m sure that you would tell everyone that you would side with my daughter. But if you really knew her political beliefs I’m sure you would be right there in that truck load of boys. You know the ones that were all tough as fuk when they were downgrading women but apparently found all the manners in the world when confronted by a man. Might I add that 4 young tough Trump supporters absolutely feared for their life when confronted by and old fat guy with a bad knee. So yeah I guess you are right we can’t count on them to be intelligent. 
 

I didn’t make it about race so please don’t try. I said old rich white guy because it’s been a stereotype since the beginning of time. It refers to a guy that never had to do much to get to where they are. They had money and I guess you could say that they were intelligent enough not to waste that opportunity. But they were born with a silver spoon and don’t understand the struggles of real Americans. But you could say that about most in D.C. Keep in mind I’m not blaming them for it. I think it’s awesome that they had that. But to think that they understand what it’s like to struggle, like most Americans do, well that’s just silly. And yes we know you don’t care about those people. And that’s okay too but it’s also silly to disregard what they are going through. 
 

The best thing about America is that you get to have your own opinion. The worst thing about America is that too many let politicians tell them what their opinion should be. 
 

Don’t worry Mitch. I’m sure you will win. But you really do need to get out and meet some real kids. You won’t see them on TV because they are too busy doing meaningful things in their lives. I think they would surprise you. 
 

November 5th can’t come soon enough.

One more thing. I have 55 people that work for me. The young ones are not the only one who’s work ethic sucks. That problem is across the board on age. 

[fishinwrench]

At the hottest party spot on Lake O they have young, middle aged, and old working.  The young crew members are making 250-600 per shift, but if they catch wind that one of the staff made 100+ more than they did on any particular shift.....They are immediately ready to quit.   It is that mentality that will be their downfall of they don't get over it.   They don't understand Give & Take.

The older crew members realize that even on their worst day there's nothing else they could be doing to earn that much dough in a single 8-10 hour shift without breaking the law. And that even though they only took home 250 today, they may easily triple that tomorrow.

Not all Trump supporters are red neck name callers.    I personally scraped my way to get a doctorate degree.    Worked 3 jobs during summers of undergrad and am still paying on my student loan 15 years since graduation.   Education shouldn’t be free.   Healthcare shouldn’t be free.   People need to earn it.    
 

It hasn’t been until the last 4 years that I financially turned a corner.   I attribute this to the    Trump administration.    He has helped the middle class more than any other president. 
 

With hard work the cream should rise to the top... if the government let’s you!   
 

Trump 2020!

It is still a racist remark, try substituting "black" in the place of "white" it becomes obviously racist.

Just seen where so called Protesters are wanting the Tax Payers to pay for Safety Gear to fight the Police.

500/day X 300 days a year is 150k.  65 days off a year.  Or is that just in the summer?  No benefits though?

Carpenters on the highway project here are getting ~$420/shift I'm told, six day weeks. It seems to be legal.

Speaking of the Donald and environmental stuff does anybody know if his  Great American Outdoors Act is good or bad? It dumps many billions of dollars into the economy, but does it help or hurt us as anglers?

I'm talking about undocumented cash here, less the hourly pay.  April-October.   Most are college kids, teachers, off duty cops, real estate folks.
