I recommend that you vote for our incumbent president, Donald J. Trump, but do this only if you believe in his plans for this nation moving forward. He is no longer an enigma. While he sometimes obfuscates his direction with contradictory statements, he has made certain things abundantly clear. You should be careful in your selection, as you must support his whole agenda. You can’t cherry-pick a singular reason and make that the entirety of your criteria. He is a package deal and there are no returns or refunds if you, the consumer, make a mistake. For your convenience I have outlined some of the more critical platform planks of the New Trump Republic that should weigh heavily in your decision process.
You should vote for Donald J. Trump if you too believe that:
- Climate Change is inevitable and of no
immediate concern. The wildfires in the
western states are the result of poor forest management and have nothing to do
with the warming of our planet. We have
always had hurricanes and we regularly run through our own alphabet and need to
go into the Greek letter names like Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, etc. The shrinking of the polar ice caps is of
little importance except for rich people who live along the coasts and they
will certainly get the government to use our tax dollars to protect their
investments. That, of course, would not be
socialism, it’s just the way things work. The poor folks who live in coastal areas will just need to adapt to a new aquatic life.
- The Fossil Fuel Industry must be
protected at all costs because oil and coal are what made this country
great. Fracking has also made natural
gas our friend and its expansion has made us energy independent. Sure, the methane released during fracking is
84 times worse than CO2 in trapping heat, but it dissipates after only a dozen
years or so. We can't rely on the sun; what happens at night and when it's cloudy? You can't use wind power because windmills cause cancer.
- Renewable Energy is a joke and not worth
our effort. We should let other countries
make the advancements in this growing market.
The predicted 24 million jobs in the global renewable energy field don’t
belong here in the US as we will continue to make advancements in oil, gas, and
coal. We need to get our workers back in the coalmines and back on the oil rigs and not working in factories building new technology or working as installers.
- The SARS COV2 pandemic is no worse than
the flu that kills thousands every year.
In the next couple of years, we will have reached the 60% threshold for
herd immunity if we continue to ignore the scientists and just go about our
lives without masks or social distancing.
About 10% of our population has already contracted the disease and it
only cost us 215,000 lives. To reach the
minimum 60% level would mean that only another one million people will have to
die before we see this thing start to die off (pun intended). The Trump administration has privately adopted herd
immunity as its national policy. We need to trust our politicians who certainly know more
than those scientists and medical professionals. Donald, Melania, and Barron have all had the disease and they survived with just a dedicated team of doctors, nurses, respiratory therapists, and technicians. They had a customized floor of a hospital complex and an in-home medical facility that would be the envy of many small cities. For those who may have lost their medical coverage when they were laid off, there is always bleach and veterinary steroids that can be purchased on the black market.
- Immigrant Children needed to be separated from their families to send a message. In fact, Melania Trump was caught on a "hot mike" saying that the kids are "being treated nicely and are happy to be in custody since they sleep on the floor in their native countries anyway." If anyone knows about making extreme sacrifices with their sleeping arrangements, there is no better expert than Melania Trump.
- We don’t need those old European Allies
of the past and we are much better off aligning ourselves with the true world
powers like China and Russia. The global
economy is a joke, and we can go it alone.
Sure, our European allies came in handy during World War II but what
have they done for us lately? We need to adopt authoritarian rule because this democracy experiment has slowed our progress to a halt.
- We need to get back to building that Border Wall. The estimates of $21.6 billion and 3.5 years for construction were perhaps a bit optimistic and Mexico’s check to pay us for the wall must have bounced. Trump, in four years, has repaired, replaced, and built some new fencing to the tune of 110 miles. That means he only has 1,884 miles to go. Since the Mexican funding plan seems to have fallen through, certainly taking the money earmarked for our military schools and the replacement of sub-standard base housing to build the wall was a good decision.
- White Nationalism is merely another word
for American Patriotism. We can’t let
down our guard and be overrun by “those people.” We hear our president loud and clear. He supports us in our efforts, and we will be
“standing by.” Our militias await his
command. We’ve been waiting for years to
have a leader who understands our white Christian minority. If we need to resort to anarchy to make America safe for white Christians then it may be time to "lock 'n load."
- Our Constitution was well intended but it
needs to be interpreted by a strong Attorney General who can look at it with a
fresh set of eyes to put a more conservative spin on those tired old words. We need to pack the courts, particularly the
Supreme Court, with folks who think the “right” way. The president is a busy man and shouldn't be bothered with complicated legal stuff that just gets in his way. He needs to be above the law. His financial endeavors should be able to benefit from his presidency because of all the sacrifices he has made.
- Morality has never been a strong suit in
politics, and we need to get over the little peccadillo's of our elected leader. Who hasn't cheated on each of his three wives with porn stars and centerfolds? If a billionaire hasn't been accused of sexual assault by at least 26 women he can't call himself a man. Donald Trump has also picked people who know how
to get things done even if they must break the law to make a difference. Steve Bannon, Michael Flynn, Roger Stone, Paul
Manafort, Rick Gates, Michael Cohen, and George Papadopoulos were all guilty of
breaking the law but surely, they meant well.
Advancing your financial position by using your political position used
to be something politicians did in smoke-filled backrooms. Trump has taken this time-honored tradition
to a new level and does so openly.
- Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid create
an unnecessary burden on wage earners and should be abolished. These are socialist schemes to allow the poor and elderly get a free ride. Old folks should have saved their own money and invested in the stock market to help them in retirement. Poor people should pack themselves off to college so they can become contributors to our great economy. Sure unemployment has recently hit close to 15% but it hit 25% during the Great Depression and they all survived.
- Obamacare aka The Affordable Care Act should also be abolished immediately. People need to take responsibility for their own health. Get a job with healthcare benefits and try not to have any preexisting conditions that would mess things up for everybody else. Donald Trump has a plan to replace the ACA, but he wants to keep it secret until after the ACA has been repealed. When has Donald Trump ever lied to you?
Yes, these are but a few of the many reasons you should strongly consider when casting your ballot. If you hold with all of these ideals you should vote for Donald J Trump. If more than one of these things made you gag, congratulations. You might just want to reconsider your choice.
