On the Domestic front you forgot using the banks you identify Conservatives by keying in on words like Cabela's, Bas Pro, and Dick's. As well as MAGA, etc.I generally don't like to comment on political stuff, because many on one side or the other are pretty well entrenched and i am unlikely to be able to change minds no matter how good the facts, but, here goes.
trump as a human is just like many of us; plenty of problems and sins to make him a less than perfect man and makes others suspect of his principles or reasons for doing things.
here are some thoughts/facts to ponder on tho regarding the upcoming election.
the current administrations first act was to cancel pipeline and start a war on fossil fuel that our country runs on, from trains, ships, 18 wheelers, tractors, delivery vehicles etc. fuel prices have spiked and that increased costs of everything, crops, goods and services.
the media has consistently stated that there is no proof that biden has taken any money from china, or russia, or ukraine, and yet, slowly but surely the proof that joe is corrupt as is his family (you know, the ones that got money from shell corporations for doing nothing) is coming out. oh, and "son of a bitch" joe got a ukrainian investigator fired for looking into his son, hmmm.
the current Administration has done everything it can to keep the border open to illegal aliens (millions of them) and actively worked AGAINST the states (TX,AZ etc) and instead of putting UP a border wall, they have actually, quietly, SOLD OFF the fence that trump had bought but was not yet installed. and while doing so, put "children in cages", "separated families" and enabled cartels to flood america with fentanyl, which i heard kills 100,000 americans per year (i used to work in ems, and watched people die from overdoses, and of course sex trafficking, rapes, etc.
i am still waiting for the terrorists in Gaza, to release american hostages, and waiting to hear from our current admin to explain the status of their release.
on the domestic front, this administration has used the FBI in conjunction with big tech to monitor social media and block or disable anyone that wanted to counter a narrative they dis agreed with. the DOJ is helping too, going after any of the biden political adversaries with law fare. remember with that matt taiebe guy was testifying (not a conservative guy, then) in court and the IRS just happened to make a house call on him the next day?
this administration made sure to shut the country down during covid, FORCED military and government workers to get a untested vaccine, upon the threat of job loss.
and, maybe the most important thing. joe biden is in serious cognitive decline. almost anyone (even a democrat) would agree that he is not the man he was 4 years ago. so, my question is...who has been running the government the last 3 years? certainly not joe, he can barely get on and off stage for a speech. So, who is ACTUALLY running things? certainly not someone who was voted into office. does anyone think that joe is going to get better in a 2nd term?
i read earlier that someone thought that it really didn't matter who was the president. hmmm, well, i would disagree. it would appear that joe has actively done just about everything that could be done to ruin his country. if he missed something, to make things worse, i don't know what it was.
you might not LIKE trump (i had money managers i didn't think much of, but they made me money) but of the two, one has actually built things, the other was a politician for his whole life. trump is a very flawed man, biden is an actual criminal, and i suspect we will find out later that he is a treasonous man as well.
as far as both men go, we have seen them both operate, in my humble opinion, its not even a close choice. it is easy to get hung up on the man and behaviors, but trumps policies were MOSTLY, pretty good.
Internationally you forgot the hand wringing approach to the Houthi's.
I'm sure there are more but you summed up the brunt of it very well.
Biden made it clear what we are in for in the next year and beyond if he's re-elected. Continue to Spend recklessly, raise taxes and lot, more regulations, more woke ideals. Supreme Court going back Liberal. In fact did you see him lying at the Justices? He obviously has zero respect for the Constitution and Separation of Powers this Country is built upon. This last one is probably the biggest and longest lasting.
How do the Never Trump Guys on here feel about the Supreme Court and Trump Appointments?
