A sign of things to come this year?

“Three Democratic members of the Staunton, Virginia, city council were ousted by Republicans on Tuesday despite receiving more votes than they did four years ago.

Republican candidates Mark Robertson, Amy Darby, and Steve Claffey all joined incumbent Andrea Oakes in a four-seat GOP sweep, WHSV reported. The three incoming council members replaced Democratic incumbents Erik Curren, Ophie Kier, and James Harrington all almost doubled their vote totals from 2016, yet still lost.

Bottom line is that the strategies worked, flipping both from D to R, but the change in Staunton is stunning almost beyond words,” Graham opined. “A city that voted for Barack Obama, twice, voted for Hillary Clinton, voted for Terry McAuliffe and Ralph Northam, even gave a solid majority to Jennifer Lewis in her 2018 congressional run against Ben Cline, is now controlled by Republicans.”

Voting by mail is bad...Trump says so himself its a travesty its even being considered as a option

You cant make this stuff up...….so a person picked up ballots for Trump then returned them for Trump.....so how do we know Trump was even the one that filled his ballot out how do we know it was not done by aides.....the hypocrisy is astounding.

President Donald Trump voted for the first time in Palm Beach County (presumably for himself)

As coronavirus cases started increasing and concern mounted in the days before Florida’s presidential primary, the state’s voters increasingly turned to voting by mail. President Donald Trump did the same thing, taking a moment to vote — undoubtedly for himself.
So did First Lady Melania Trump, who presumably also voted for her husband.

Eight days before the March 17 primary, a Trump representative picked up vote-by-mail ballots at the Palm Beach County Elections Office, said Supervisor of Elections Wendy Sartory Link. The same person returned the ballots to the elections office the day before the primary.

That's gotta sting.

For nearly everything trump speaks on he has a tweet or previous behavior to the contrary. It's like clockwork.

LOL I seriously doubt that. Especially when running against the likes of Bathroom Bill Forest.

Yea the nerve to say females should use a female restroom and males a male restroom. Safe to say the majority still agree with his view on this issue, that never was an issue till the left decided to make it one.

I have no problem with transgendered individuals using whichever restroom they are most comfortable in. I can not once in my lifetime say I was concerned or cared about the dude in the stall next to me. Whether its a dude dropping a deuce or a female sitting to pee I've never asked and never will.

Is any of that verified?

Yes only ones in essential jobs and only ones that PAY taxes. Get over it already. They deserve to get their tax payer money just as much as I do. I'd ratherthem.get stimulus than Americans who wont work.

If they are paying taxes,whose soc sec number is it under? Oh I get it, they get paid cash and voluntary pay income taxes. You ok with them using your soc sec number to work under? No big deal,right?

Transgenders arent the concern. Its people manipulating that law that's the problem.

My guess is thousands of times a day transgenders just use the restroom of their choice. You never know it and it shouldn't be any of your business. You dont have to explain anything to your daughter.

If I never knew it ,then why did a law,norm thats been in place since 1776 have to be manipulated to begin with?

ITIN dude research it. Did you read the highlights of the bill you're talking about? It explains it. Taxpayers be it legal or illegal have paid into the system the SAME and deserve the same benefits point blank and preiod.

You cant answer the question. In order to be paying taxes and entitled to a refund one has to be using someone elses social security number. No way around it. So your ok with that.

You blow my mind. You wonder why trumpsters get railed on as stupid? Did you even look at what a ITIN is? It's a number that allows you to pay TAXES without a damn SSN.

For those that dont choose to educate themselves.

The Facts About the Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN)

The Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) is a tax-processing number issued by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to ensure that people—including undocumented immigrants—pay taxes.

I don’t have issues with transgender having their own bathrooms. I have a daughter and son and we all know several will use this to get into opposite gender to possibly see young kids naked. That’s the sick world we live in. No reason a transgender who maybe using it as a cover should even have the chance to see kids or even ladies. Reason is it’s much more likely a man pretending to be transgender will want to see ladies naked than a woman being a man.

You really believe they paid taxes? Lmao. I’d bet most of their work was on cash only. So they file a small amount and get more than they paid. Especially those with large families. Hilarious you liberals would give America away and never blink an eye. Liberals think the democrat name means they want pay equality. When the liberals have more money than most Republicans. Yes both sides are filthy rich. Liberals want everyone to worship them and make people believe socialism works. It’s freaking hilarious. Trump is an ass but he at least believes in capitalism. Like yesterday some on here think that Harris making Wuhan and China virus as hate speech. Those I will call dumbas... What’s next saying Italian and Mexican food is hate speech. Or saying the Alamo is hate speech. This is why America needs to wake up and get rid of these sheeple. Give them tickets outta of America. America stands for FREEDOM not communism.

You will have more trouble trying to explain to your kid why the lady in the dress is pissing in the urinal.....since she is forced to use to male bathroom even though she presents as a women....
