It’s time to turn the page from the division and hatred of Donald Trump and JD Vance to a new generation of love and leadership with VP Kamala Harris and Gov. Tim Walz.
This will go down in history as the most consequential presidential election of the modern era. When you contrast the vision, language, political philosophies, persona, the good intentions and saneness, the human decency and willingness to do that right thing for all Americans, it weighs heavily and decidedly on one side, and that’s the side of Harris and Walz.
We can not keep debating why 47% of Americans are voting the way they are because deep down inside we know why, and they do too, contrary to the false and misleading denials! Let’s just stop rationalizing this phenomenon of calling racism patriotism.
Another four years of Donald Trump in The White House would be more than the world could bear. A vote for Trump inhumanely allows women to needlessly die in hospitals from lack of available care. A vote for Trump shows the willingness by many to go back and relive plantation-like privileges before the Civil War. A vote for Trump shows your children that character doesn’t matter, that lying is ok, that disrespecting our military, our injured, handicapped/disabled individuals, is acceptable; disrespecting/abusing/assaulting women, is alright; cheating on three wives then marrying a stripper is ok; stiffing workers, contractors, venues, cities and states, committing fraud, doesn’t matter. Using derogatory and racist names for those you disagree with is fine. A vote for Trump approves of his disdain and hatred for women. A vote for Trump condones the calls for harm and danger to his political opponents.
Being a convicted felon, who instigated an insurrection, doesn’t matter. And claiming God and selling Bibles without reading them while (ordained evangelicals) use this degenerate man and atheist to advance the kingdom. They say he is praiseworthy, but I beg to differ.
I’ve never seen so many spineless men in one cult-like party in my life. After January 6th they were done with Trump; then a couple of months later they were making pilgrimages to Mar-a-Lago to kiss his ring.
When someone shows you who he is, you better believe them the first time. We have to elect our top and down-ballot candidates to help empower Kamala Harris to get her agenda accomplished and forge a new pathway forward! So I encourage you, America, to go and vote like your life depends on it because it really does if Trump is re-elected.
