Editor’s Note: Thank you for sending comments on our news, policy, and opinion — we review every one of them. Here are a few reader perspectives, which don’t necessarily reflect those of The Patriot Post.

Re: “It’s Official: This IS a Recession”

“Only women can have babies, so the Left pretends it doesn’t know what a woman is. Crime keeps rising in Democrat cities, so they simply decriminalize crime. Black Lives Matter is the most blatantly racist organization in America, so the Left redefines ‘racism’ as something only whites can be guilty of. Riots are called ‘insurrections,’ but only if Republicans are involved. Now a recession is whatever a Democrat president needs it to be. When reality refuses to cooperate, the Left simply changes definitions. But we live in the REAL world.” —Georgia

“Biden doesn’t understand the economy and how to make it thrive. He is reactive and doesn’t know how to be proactive and improve the economy. He only knows tax and spend. And you can’t build an economy like that. Unfortunately, our country has been filled with bad presidential possibilities. We haven’t had a good election in decades. Our presidents aren’t winning elections; the other party keeps losing them. I think Trump had the potential of being a great president, but his ego got the best of him and it proved to be his Achilles heel.” —Michigan

“The problem is not inflation in the common way but government-created inflation that will benefit the likes of George Soros. Look at the history of hedge fund people. The ideal way to enrich themselves is to drive the markets to the bottom, then make a profit by running prices up. Hedge funds make their money in crazy markets.” —Arkansas

Re: “Biden’s BIG ‘Inflation Reduction Act’ Lie”

“Really? Illustrious GOP senators caught off guard by Democrat shenanigans? Unfortunately, it happens too often to Republicans, who are constantly played for fools by Democrats who stick together and vote in unison. Shame on the naive Senate Republicans who voted for the chip boondoggle. Manchin, Schumer, and Biden are laughing behind your backs. One can only hope that Arizona Senator Kyrsten Sinema has more integrity than her counterparts and rejects the hypocritical ‘Inflation Reduction Act.’” —California

Re: “Dems Push for Supreme Court Term Limits”

“The leftists crying ‘term limits’ should look at all the dinosaurs on both sides of the parties who have been there before some of us were born. Still haven’t done anything for the American people, all they do is line their own pockets. Term limits are definitely needed. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander. So if it’s good for the Court, it’s good for the whole government crime syndicate.” —Virginia

Re: “The U.S. Department of Injustice”

“The FBI, the CIA, and the mainstream media colluded with the Democrats in October 2020 in a conspiracy to bury the Hunter Biden story as ‘Russian disinformation’ and throw the presidential election. So who are the real criminals and ‘seditionists’? It’s pretty obvious that the Jan. 6 Committee is just another fraud being committed against the political opposition. Not to mention that for four years before the election the same actors colluded in a similar conspiracy through a ‘social prosecutor’ and two impeachments to oust a duly elected president.” —Georgia

Re: “The Afghanistan Debacle, One Year Later”

“After a deployment to Afghanistan (‘07-'08), I attended a lecture on the country’s history entitled 'Afghanistan: The Destroyer of Empires.’ The title is still appropriate. Afghanistan is astoundingly primitive and impoverished. As long as we gave out lots of free stuff, we were welcomed. It was pretty obvious that once we turned off the lights and closed the door, it would resume its previous ways. Other than getting rid of bin Laden, we accomplished nothing. The fiasco of our departure epitomized the rest of the venture.” —New Hampshire

Re: “What Should Trump Do Now?”

“Donald Trump will do whatever he wants. His brand demands he is the story. If that coincides with the Republican Party, it is entirely coincidental. He did many beneficial things as president but his ego alienated the majority of Americans and he lost his job. It’s time for him and the rest of us to move on.” —Florida
