BIDEN: What’s to love?
I’m not writing about the obvious fraud, chicanery, and illegal voting in our recent election. I just have a simple request for citizens who voted for an old man with dementia and his side-kick, the most radical member of the Senate.
Without any reference to our current president, I seriously want to know what plank in the Democrat platform you agreed with. Was it giving citizenship to illegal aliens? Or legalized drugs nationwide? Maybe driving up the cost of our gasoline and natural gas again by banning drilling and production? Raising taxes on all of us by reversing President Trump’s tax cuts? Running businesses out of the country again by enforcing Green New Deal restrictions, raises in the minimum wage, and higher taxes? Maybe you want to see the ruination of small businesses and the economy by implementing a nationwide COVID-19 lockdown. Were you swayed by the promise of free college for everyone and Medicare for all?
And the best planks of all: abolishing the police, stacking the Supreme Court and eliminating the Electoral College. (Yes, these are issues that Biden and/or Harris have stated they will act on.)
I look forward to reading responses from Democrats in the community. The tricky part is you need to remember the requirement of not even mentioning the name of President Donald J. Trump. I’m not interested in what you may have hated about him, but what you love about the “president-elect.”
