Why you should vote Republican even if you don’t care for Trump:
We’ll start by noting we are not pleased with some of the things he says, the way he says them or the personal verbal attacks on some opponents, but he tells the people like it is.
He is not a politician, and is likely never to change the way he talks. One thing we know is when he says he is going to do something, he usually gets it done.
With Harris, we don’t know what she stands for because she keeps changing her positions as she tries to move to the center to convince Americans she is not a far-left liberal.
He will bring the hostages back home.
Will not cut Social Security and Medicare or raise the age.
Keep boys out of girls sports.
No tax on tips or social security.
Wants to close the borders but immigrants can come in legally.
Deport criminals that came in illegally and do away with freebies.
Drill, baby drill.
Gas vehicles — If you want an electric one, fine.
Abortion went back to the states.
Biggest tax cuts.
One day voting, ID required, and paper ballots.
Uphold the Second amendment.
Freedom of speech and religion.
Against human/child trafficking.
Never endorsed Project 2025.
If you like “Doesn’t everyone just love a yellow school bus” and “Falling out of a coconut tree” and giggles, this is why you should vote Democrat:
Abortion up to birth and wants government to pay for it.
Open borders — 11 million illegal aliens from at least 172 nations have invaded America.
Boys on girls teams.
Teaching “woke” in schools.
Wars — supports the industrial/military complex.
Universal care for everyone, including the illegals.
Electric cars mandate by 2035.
Wants to change the Supreme Court.
High food and gas prices.
Amnesty for illegals.
Supports banning fracking.
Defunding the police.
Change our currency.
When your stock market goes up, she wants to tax your gains.
Wants to put a ceiling on groceries — price control from government.
Falling incomes (hourly compensation fell by 5% — with inflation it is even more).
Abandonment of Afghanistan to the Taliban leaving 13 dead American servicemen.
We truly believe that Kamala Harris would bring us four more years of economic ruin and she would be an embarrassment on the world stage.
She can’t even sit down for an interview on her own to answer questions. How would she ever be able to talk to the world leaders?
She was given one job — to oversee the border. And not only did she fail to do that, she now claims she was never put in charge of it.
We need accountability and strength in a leader, and we do not believe she possesses either of these qualities.
We should not vote for a party but for the person that has the best policies for our country so our future generations can continue to have a life as we know it today.
