And they'll do it or Trump will cut their pensions, their disabilities, and their Social Security.
Here's a thought — if Trump wants to "Make AmeriKKKa Great Again" maybe he should re-institute something like the old WPA (Works Progress Administration), the CCC (Civilian Conservation Corps), and the other vast "New Deal" public works programs that built American infrastructure in the 1930s. A lot of the stuff that was built back then, while it may not be high-tech, is still standing and still serviceable. And the program puts people back to work; results in repairs and/or improvements to crumbing infrastructure; and reduces if not eliminates the "welfare mentality" that seems to have permeated our society over the past four decades.
Of course, he'll never do it. The original "New Deal" programs were enacted and brought about by Franklin D. Roosevelt — a Democrat — and his passionate hatred for anything that bears even a tinge of Obama, Democrats, or liberal policies means that anything like this is automatically off the table.
By the way — referring to monkey tails? Now who's talking out of the other side of their racist mouth?

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?
