Some of those occupied offices smell like moth balls.
Everyone I talk to in real life, both Conservative and Liberal, is in favor of term limits. I wonder why, with all that support in the voter base, we never see any legislation on it?

I have one vote. I cast it and get on with my life and try to be a normal, decent human being.
I was a Perot voter, a Ron Paul voter, and Libertarian or Constitution party voter. Up until Trump, I had NEVER picked a winning President, or voted for a R or D as president. I understand your strongly held convictions....I do.

Having said that, this is such a stark choice. Biden is weak mentally, I don't think anyone doubts that. Trump is a self absorbed and petty. OK. But let us just look at Trump's policies.

If you are tired of illegal aliens flooding in and dropping anchor, Trump is the only president since Eisenhower to do something about it. If you agreed with Perot that NAFTA was a giant sucking sound of jobs leaving the US, then Trump is the only president to do something about it. Same with China. Before Trump, no one even talked about China stealing intellectual property, or out factories going to China. Union favorite Joe? Not a peep. Trump has been fixing our trade policies.

Maybe being anti war is important to you. It is to me, because it is cheaper NOT to endlessly war, especially when there is no benefit. We were told Trump is a dictator and warmonger, but Trump has started no new wars, has us as close as we have ever been to being out of Afghanistan, defeated ISIS and pulled some troops from Syria. Compare to Obama/Biden. They started wars and told us it would take decades to roll up ISIS.

Trump lowered taxes and reduced regulation, and his all of the above energy policy has made us a net energy EXPORTER for the first time in 70 years. Compare to Obama/Biden who punished the oil and gas, and coal industries. Compare to Joe who has said he will stop any new cracking, any new offshore drilling, etc.

I could go on, but there are real policy differences here. If you don't like not being at war, don't like fair trade deals, don't like low and stable energy prices, and don't like the idea of not letting rioters run wild, then Biden is your guy. Otherwise, if you like the actual work Trump is doing, and want it to continue, I would ask you to consider holding your nose and voting Trump.

Good.



Sorry, that was a dickish response. One size does not fit all. I’ll just leave it at that.

Why in the world would you cast a vote to put Joe Biden in the White House?

It's not really Joe Biden that worries me. It's what the left is gonna use him for. look at the cities that are historically democrat. Look what's going on there and what the response to it has been. Blatant criminal acts with prosecutable evidence in abundance and there are no charges or the DA refuses to prosecute. The local politicians seem to embrace and endorse these actions. What do you think is going to happen if the left is also in charge of the White House? The left seems to be on track to embrace total chaos and anarchy. The only ones that will be prosecuted will be people defending their homes, families, and lives.

The inmates have taken control of the asylum in these cities. I don't mean the rioters, I mean those that allow it to continue.
