It is a far, far better thing that I do,
than anything I have ever done;
it is a far, far, better rest that I go to,
than I have ever known.

This is all bullshit, and I'm a NeverTrumper. Yes, like any other politician, like Barry Obama, he is a phony and unprincipled manipulator.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) October 7, 2017
No, lifting the birth control mandate is NOT an attack on women. In fact, 61% of white women without a degree voted for Trump.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) October 7, 2017
You are just a parasitic freeloading bastard trying to socialize the expenses of your personal sex life.Trump is not outlawing birth control— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) October 7, 2017
What a left-fascist retard! Trump is not picking our your boyfriends or making laws to compel sex. You can still pay for your own BC.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) October 7, 2017
Pro-lifers are more charitable than you pro-aborts. The real moral hypocrite is someone who kills children and pretends to care for older.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) October 7, 2017
"Anti-people policies"? You're a contemptible asshole. Taking away the gun forcing people to subsidize other people's expenses is freedom.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) October 7, 2017
Can Trump win reelection? Well, keep in mind that Trump's biggest advantage was running against unpopular Clinton.https://t.co/rmTudTyJmh— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) October 7, 2017
Nope. I just KNOW the private sector is better at addressing people's wants and needs than the govt. There are no govt restaurants or market— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) October 7, 2017
A lot of unpopular politicians win reelection (e.g., Blagojevich, Gray Davis). and former MD Gov Ehrlich lost despite good approval ratings.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) October 7, 2017
Trump''s reelection probably will depend on the health of the economy and the fortunes of the lower middle class. If they are bad, he's done— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) October 7, 2017
The 2016 election was not about policy. Clinton's policy flip-flops are notorious (gay marriage, Keystone, TPP).https://t.co/7nxuMMR7Pt— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) October 7, 2017
But make no mistake: the 2016 election was also a vote on Obama's ideological Presidency. People liked Obama but didn't like his policies.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) October 7, 2017
If the Democrats are going to win in 2020, they need to— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) October 7, 2017
- revamp their stale, divisive policies
- focus more on general interests of voters.
If the Democrats are going to win in 2020, they need to:— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) October 7, 2017
- adopt a more positive tone vs elitist and judgmental

.Pprogressive are clueless, presumptuous. I got a troll reply: "You don't care about poor urban kids. They're just thugs to you." Wrong!— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) October 7, 2017
I'm pushing for school choice, despite the fact I have no children. I advocate decriminalizing victimless crimes,relaxing mandates on hiring— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) October 7, 2017

The Latest Kimmel Political Rant
I'm personally a little sick and tired of entertainers using privileged access to promote their misinformed political views. I don't mind Kimmel having a vote or expressing his deeply flawed views but it would cost me to buy time on TV to promote my views. Nobody, except like-minded "progressives", gives a damn what Kimmel the comedian thinks. They tune in to his show to be entertained, not attend a one-sided political rally.
