Paid for by Hillary for president.
imagine what these people think when yall talk about white privilege
The old man at the end told the whole truth about both political parties. These kids need to start listening to our senior citizens instead of their teachers and professors.

And it really don't matter what side you vote your still getting screwed.big time done both sides what part of this you but wits don't get! Ha tell me.monky brains all of you on both sides.
If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you picking his pockets. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you. – Lyndon B. Johnson
i wonder of the feel more happy now that trump has been president for a long time.
I love the part where they imply only republicans lie… lmao
Libbers I bet these people aren't looking out for shet on sidewalks like they are Nancy and Maxine's fine districts
Too bad Dotard duped those slow witted people. smh
And Donald Trump deserting you too cuz he ain't done s*** for the state not a f**** thing none of you people got benefits from the tax cuts
Actually most Rich people don’t start at the top….They actually work and not blame everyone and everything.
What other industry is Trump planning to bring back after coal ? Dirigeble Mechanics ? ,fernology practitioners ? Telegraph operators ? Blockbuster clerks ? …..
Because they're ignorant and parochial? That would be my guess.
Time to pack up the model T and move to California.
These people put their faith in a CONMAN. These people are where they are because they’re gullible . These are the people that trump LOVES . They’re called UNEDUCATED DUMB AZZES
Hey McDowell !!! did you get CONNED by trump ? You vote for trump, I guess you did.
Andrew Yang should have been a hit with these folk.
This is humanity vs greed
I so long for the day when humanity rids these greedy F$&%&#$ who hoard all the resources that could fund a entire nation.
Dims and libs don't understand that it is Not always about money. Many of us have principles we live by and those principles are violated by the liberal agenda. It is that simple. Also, I know a fair share of what many consider "poor" people who are extremely happy close knit families. I also interact with wealthy people some who are miserable.
British screwed their coal miners too.
As of today, 3/10/20 trumps administration is still in chaos.
"Squeal like a little piggy boy".
2016 – Donald trump makes promises he can’t deliver he’s not going to bring back jobs
2020 – lowest unemployment rate in American history
Green policies are destroying these communities whilst China and India continue to build coal fired power stations by the dozen and they wonder why people vote against thede elitist fools.
Country road take me home
