Judges. I believe our founders had it right when they established three branches of government, Executive, Legislative, and Judicial. We have seen the Legislative Branch continuously and repeatedly fail to do its job and allow the President through Executive Order and Judicial via judicial fiat do their jobs for them. Trump has nominated the kind of judges we need, judges who will push things back to the legislature where they belong.
Economy. Trump has cut red tape and taxes. His economic policies are good for EVERYBODY. Wealthy people. Working stiffs. Retirees like me. The saying, "an incoming tide raises all boats in the harbor together" is exactly right as it relates to the Trump economy. Before the pandemic just about everybody was doing better then ever before. Women, black, Hispanic, Asian, whites, we were ALL doing better than ever.
Trade. Closely related to Economy, above, trade is definitely on my list. Previous administrations, from both parties, have sold American workers out again and again. Trump has tried hard against tremendous resistance to make sure our trade deals are in the best interest of our workers and farmers and tried to push us back to a production economy rather than a service economy. The worst example of the pre-Trump trade problem was China, to whom we allowed ourselves to be dependent for food, technology, medical, and military supplies and goods. Unacceptable.
Energy independence. Whose fucking bright idea was it to allow foreign countries to control our energy markets? Nope. Trump was 100% right to free US energy companies from many of the shackles previous administrations had weighed it down with.
Ending endless wars. Nearly 20 years in, and with no definable plan for victory, or success even, Trump is pulling us from places like Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan. Finally. Has he solved the problems there? No. Are they solvable by US military force? No. So there.
Foreign policy. The US State Dept and diplomatic corps seems to me to be a perfect example of "because that's how we've always done things". Trump has challenged diplomatic norms. No new wars, and peace deals in the Middle East the Bushes, Clintons, and Obama nor Biden would have ever even attempted. Bravo.
Right to bear arms, 2A. Just yesterday Joe was tweeting about gun controls he'd put in place. He didn't say shit about taking guns from bad guys, only about "common sense" reforms to disarm law abiding citizens and reduce our chances to defend ourselves. Joe and his buddies on the left plan to infringe on 2A and impose taxes on gun ownership. Which other of our constitutional rights is taxed? He wants to ban online gun and ammunition sales, too. Nope. Not for me. Let me know your plan to disarm and control bad guys before you try to disarm us good guys.
Law and Order. Antifa. BLM. Riots. Destruction. Big liberal cities. Coming to the rest of the USA via a Biden presidency where the same liberal mindset is imposed from Washington? No.
Racism and racial equality. For all the talk about us Trump supporters being the bad people, it seems to me only one party is obsessed with race and it ain't us. Blaming white people as a group for anything is no different than blaming black people or gay people or anyone else. I reject it. And a Biden or Harris presidency would surely push more of the same, and push it hard. No.
Deep State corruption and the coup d'état. The bastards that tried to steal and overturn the election and undermine the President still haven't been brought to justice. The swamp isn't nearly drained and it needs to be. I hope President Trump, win or lose, fires Wray and Halspel on Wednesday.
Corona virus. He did a better job than he got credit for. Perfect? No. But blaming him for it or for deaths is fucking ridiculous. I can't imagine the economic devastation if a Democrat was in the Oval Office this past year, and you can't convince me we'd be any better off than we are now. I'm sure some are convinced I'm wrong on that. I say it's unprovable.
Joe Biden. He's mentally failing and he's corrupt.
Kamala Harris. She's an extreme liberal and Joe is just a Trojan horse candidate to get her installed as President. No fucking way.
Yes, Donald J Trump is and can be an asshole. For all the reasons above, and maybe some others my brain isn't conjuring on Election Day eve, he's my choice, and he's the right one for our country. If you haven't already, vote for Trump for President of the United States tomorrow. We have a lot riding on it, as in EVERYTHING.
