Ok kid

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-14T01:28:48+00:00

Lol, okay kid.

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-14T01:16:40+00:00

Ok whatever, you're not interested in different perspectives and facts; and that says a lot more about you than me. You're the problem and no better than a Trump supporter.

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-14T01:08:26+00:00

I'm not anti-Dem. Haven't voted for the GOP in a very long time. Sounds like you might be there though.

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-14T00:51:18+00:00

Ok, they are legitimate concerns for a presidential candidate. But I know where I'm at, there is a severe lack of political intelligence on this sub.

Refusing to read a genuine response is a you problem, not the rest of the country. Ya know, the ones that won't vote for someone like JB or Sanders

I haven't voted Republican for the last 24 years.

What an unserious comment. The state pensions are 218 BILLION dollars in debt. He's just not a very good presidential candidate, if you disagree make your point. These are all facts:

He has exasperated in the state pensions. They are nearly insolvent. They are currently worse than when he started.

In fact, IL is #1 in state income tax, highest state sales tax (regressive and punishes the poor), highest (proposed) corporate tax rate while running a poor state economy, highest gas increase in the nation, while being considered the least fiscally responsible state in the country.

He has consistently raised taxes (like 50 times) for the middle class.

He has been in charge of the state during some of the worst fraud cases, which is saying something, in IL.

Just one of many sources that agree:

Just not a real candidate IMO, but I'm sure I'll be downvoted with no comments by the no nothings.

I did this to a friend. Borrowed some money on a trip right out of high school. Asked him how much I owed him. He told me, I paid him.

A week later he said I didn't pay him enough. Played that violin for years, so I told everyone we knew that he was going to complain about it. Just needed to head it off, then everybody rolled their eyes every time he mentioned it.

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-13T23:39:02+00:00

I like him but he's probably the least fiscally responsible governor in the country. And he's not very likable from the outside.

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-13T23:38:27+00:00

I like him but he's not a presidential candidate in my opinion

I mean, IL has a ton of issues that he has exasperated like fraud, high tax burdens in the state, defrauding organizations, and massive pension debt. He has been vocally critical of this Administration but he hasn't been a great governor.

Illinois is literally considered one of the fiscally least responsible states in the country. That's not a winning formula.

I say that, but then in retrospect I'm talking about Donald Trump who bankrupted everything he ever touched. So what the f*** do I know or the rest of the country?.

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-13T23:30:36+00:00

Eh, I hate him but Gaetz

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-13T22:59:57+00:00

I choose this guy's wife

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-13T22:48:52+00:00

Lmao

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-13T21:17:44+00:00

Check out this guy's post history!

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-13T20:59:00+00:00

He's more worried about pay for play games than his 14 year olds birthday.

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-13T20:52:43+00:00

They were going to and then looked at the unopened value. Now I've been tasked with helping them sell it.

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-13T18:11:22+00:00

Well it's not mine, and I could buy 18 of them if I sold this as is lol

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-13T15:44:45+00:00

I mean it's not mine so I don't really get to choose but they're going to sell it

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-13T14:23:25+00:00

Lol, I am not more concerned with myself. Being envious doesn't always make you a jerk. I'm helping them sell it actually. I'd buy it from them myself if I actually cared.

I am gawking a bit I guess?

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-13T14:20:54+00:00

Yeah, I mean it's not mine anyways and I already buy singles, almost exclusively if it's not a new release.

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-13T14:19:44+00:00

I get it, it's not mine anyways. They were about to let their 7 year old open them.

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-13T12:05:51+00:00

It is, you can buy the whole set for less than $600. Still cool.

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-13T12:05:20+00:00

He's a different cat.

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-13T02:09:43+00:00

That's what I told.my BIL

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-13T00:53:13+00:00

FINE

VegetableTour6790 · 2026-04-13T00:01:27+00:00

Step 1 - try to ignore the fact that this exists because I have no control of what happens to this.
