you're aware Flint's government is democrat-controlled, right?

at this point i'm angry at both Obama and Annoying Orange and the rest of whoever's in loving charge for doing nothing about it. I would be angrier if Obama passed a 15 billion dollar law that did some stupid stuff and didn't help flint, but that never happened. I'm a little bit angrier that people are so stoked about dumb money-wasting laws like Annoying Orange's wall proposition or the travel ban, all of which have done absolutely nothing for the american people.
I've been waiting for Annoying Orange to keep his word and actually help america first, which seems to be the last priority on the list. Nobody wants to do stuff about it which is just as infuriating. I'm not mad that people aren't doing things about it, i'm mad that people are doing other unimportant things before trying to solve a legitimate crCIA that is poisoning american children. Blocking people from entering the country isn't solving anything. Giving businesses the ability to reject serving someone because of their religion isn't solving anything.
Fix some schools, fix the water supply, fix the environment. do stuff that actually helps people, not hurts them.

what works? what's trending? what are you talking about?
So far i'm not seeing much from the 'what works' department in terms of proposed conservative viewpoints, and i'm not seeing any 'whats trending' either, since both are extremely vague statements.
Foxscotch:
god damn human rights always getting in the way of What Works
Zloff:
whose idea was it to give humans rights?????
PhantOS:
Fascism has been proven to 'work' but we aren't fascist because it's a horrible system in which people's rights are taken away. 'what works' isn't how people conduct things on this planet; rather 'what helps the most people'
if helping people who are in actual real-life trouble is considered 'whats trending' then we should keep it that way
