Sorry to keep harping internet void but ... “I do like the president,” Wilson said. “I voted for him all three times and I am willing to vote for him a fourth time" Or the real #1 comment I am against BIG POWDERED COCKROACH

The question I have with Sand is that his in-laws, they own some kind of deal that makes food – they’re trying to feed the world,” Wilson said. “I guess part of that is they’re wanting to feed bugs to us. Powdered cockroaches is not a new concept, and now they’re just making it affordable to do the processing part of it. And I am not for feeding the people bugs.”

Idk what to do with this The ones who came in the last 4 years. Who has been president. Brainrotted people.

The 70-year-old said there should be a path for immigrants who have lived illegally in the U.S. “for a while” to become U.S. citizens but “the ones that came in the last four years that are criminals” should be rounded up, and “maybe things can change” if that happens.

I mean cmon. Considers himself an independent voter.

Perry resident Robert Walsh said he considers himself an independent voter, although he’s registered as a Republican. He voted in the Republican primary Tuesday to support U.S. Rep. Randy Feenstra as he runs for Iowa governor.

Calling Feenstra a “Trump loyalist,” Walsh said it wasn’t Feenstra’s policy proposals or beliefs that earned his vote but his practice of supporting President Donald Trump’s decisions, specifically on voter identification and immigration policies.

“A lot of it is just being true to your Republican party and trying to get what the president’s trying to put through, he’s been on board with that,” Walsh said.

A University of Iowa political professor says the Supreme Court’s recent ruling that will change how states draw their maps won’t affect Iowa all that much, WOI reports.

“I can’t imagine that we would because unlike other states, we don’t have a large enough minority population to be able to form one,” Hagle said.
