Want to know how Trump got elected? Go to

[doc03]

McDonalds on a monday morning (free coffee day) and just sit and listen to old white retirees conversations about politics.

1. I've had the pleasure many times

It's gut wrenching, especially when I know that many of them are Union retirees.

[Blanks]

2. It is the insurance 'industry'...

Obamacare was not health care reform, it was health insurance reform.

Or simply put insurance reform. Spend a little time in front of your television and count the insurance commercials. Any time I sit down and watch television I see Geico, Progressive, State Farm, and Farmers commercials. One insurance company commercial after another.

People complain that the Main Stream media isn't covering a story, maybe the military industrial complex or the insurance companies don't benefit from the story seeing the light of day. How did Trump get so much free time on TV? He was going to repeal Obamacare, the reduced regulations that Pence is running around talking about, less insurance regulation.

The insurance industry literally controls our entertainment industry through advertising. Are there going to be programs that show insurance in a bad light? I can't think of any.

3. There are other forms of advertising. We need to use them.

[Blanks]

4. We can't control what is on television...

The advertisers are bound to have some control over the programming.

These insurance commercials are witty, clever and even outright funny at times, but the networks aren't going to run programming that shows their advertisers in a bad light.

Retired people watch television. It doesn't matter what you're watching, it is sponsored by the insurance companies.

It isn't just Obamacare, insurance companies make investments and they want those investments to be as unregulated as possible.

5. So peat and repeat warnings. Flyer your neighborhood. Knock on doors. Go to neighborhood meetings

Takes work.

6. I don't do McDonalds but when my electric went out after a storm, I went to the Hardees at the

next town over. I could not believe the political bullshit floating around that place from the old retirees. Incidentally, I'm well into into that category but still have a brain. The lies related to as gospel truth makes your head spin. I was a good boy for a change, finished my biscuit sandwich and quietly left. I really wanted to stay and start an argument ending in a food fight but discretion being the better part etc., etc.

8. If you sit and listen for a while you know what the talking points

were on Fox and Friends the whole weekend. The number one topic today was if you take out California Trump won
both the popular and electoral vote. There were millions of illegals that voted in California for Hillary, she encouraged
them to vote. It was basically race BLM, people shooting COPs, welfare, food stamps oh and restrooms. I too am 68 so
I am knocking old people I am one. You can't engage in conversation with them it is a waste of time they heard it on Fox
so that is the way it is.

7. I remember the day after Obama was elected the first time.

I went to the local pharmacy to pick up prescriptions for my elderly parents in law. The place was filled with terrified old people convinced that Obama was going to "take away" Social Security and Medicare. They were near panic and in a rage.

This was in a suburban county in a state (PA) that voted for Obama.

9. Go to, like, any comments section on the internet.

Except, of course, this page. Most of the time.

10. Also known as "My Parents"

A friend of theirs actually said to me: "I don't like Hillary, but at least she's white."

11. This is hell

and we are damned elect.
