They aren't retards and your opinion of special needs people shows how.ignorant you really are. They are a human being like any others.
There you go, your post would be spot on if directed at Trump! My post was an attempt at sarcasm
and in Trump speak. What I posted is exactly how the president of the United States feels.

Sorry, I don't think about haters.
You have a fabulous evening
I was more curious what you think about Trump cutting off funding for the special Olympics?

I do not know you, no one on here said it was acceptable by Trump. Most of them those defending him are idiots, that I do know.

Because it's not relevant. They don't need the funding.
The federal government gives about 11 million (10%) and they raise plenty through donations, about 111 million on their own.
The only reason it's an "outrage" is because Trump is doing it, lol ..... it has been voted down before because it's been put up by past politicians. LOL! This isn't new!
What? They might have to make some administrative cuts?
Big whoop.

No you seem pretty intelligent that's why I wonder why you would vote for a man like Trump

I did answer that in another post.

But if people would dig deeper on the ideas and not who is proposing them, have an unbiased look at the solutions he puts out for problems.
Look .... Obamacare was almost a good idea, but look what happened. Some peoples insurance became outrageously high.  And because they couldn't afford it, they were penalized on their tax refunds ..... JUST WOW!

I just bring that as an example.
Trump has goals and ideas that I agree with ..... it's that simple

Yes Trump does have goals and ideas and I sure don't agree with them.


Trump said he wouldn’t cut Medicaid, Social Security, and Medicare. His 2020 budget cuts all 3.

https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2019/3/12/18260271/trump-medicaid-social-security-medicare-budget-cuts

Step one, give the rich a huge tax break, step two take from the old, sick and poor to pay for it.

1st off, he didn't rob the money from SS, previous government did that and now it's broke, yes?
It's going to be a hard fix and because he didn't address it in his state of the union speech, everyone concludes the worst. The media ran with it, of course.
Now think about this .... his bloody wall. How about the money we save from housing and medical for illegals, go to give back to SS and medicare?
SS as it stands right now will not be able to pay all benefit in 2032. There is no quick fix here.
Trumps idea?  Faster economic growth.
Copy/paste
Mnuchin says tax cuts, fewer regulations, and better trade deals will boost growth and thus enough revenues to keep the programs going as they are—and avoiding the need for painful cuts or tax hikes.
None of that has panned out yet. The White House is now fighting a four-front trade war with America’s biggest trading partners—Canada, Mexico, China and the European Union—but so far, no new trade deals. As for economic growth, Trump’s own Commerce Department says the U.S. grew at a 2.2% annual pace in the first quarter of 2018, down from 2.9% in the fourth quarter of 2017.

There is a whole article about it if you choose to dig deeper

After receiving a personal message I will say, I hold no grudges over politics.

So no worries folks, I'm good, you're good .... it's what make America great right?

WLU is that you?, who is the fake war hero? and nobody is forcing you to watch the special Olympics, you have choices in America, for now anyway

Really... 

Why would you ever think that was me?

What was said wasn't even good bait to begin with much less a compelling topic to even discuss.


BEHOLD !!!
