Sixty-two million people voted for a change in government policies by electing Donald Trump! You’ll likely see more of the Trump name in this state and it won’t be supportive of our new president. Our governor and the Seattle mayor and the protesters are very poor losers. Hillary Clinton was supposed to win. She didn’t — accept the fact. There are a lot of people who voted President Trump into office and want him to have the chance to make our country better.
Washington state made $200 million on marijuana taxes, which by federal law is illegal. (Where was Sen. Patty Murray when we passed this law?) And now the state wants to fund our education system with these taxes. That is a real mixed message to the students, don’t you think? Ignore federal law so you can profit from it and throw a bone to a good cause to cover your conscience. As a safe state, we are educating the children of illegal immigrants with drug money and collecting federal money per student in school. Hypocrisy abounds.
