You are so right, Marshall. I may not like Trump as a person, but I like how he stands up for America, the Mideast, and minorities. What gets me is how the left automatically assumes I am interested in hearing their drivel and that I don’t deserve to think for myself. Or that because I am pro-life, I don’t deserve to live. I have lost more “friends” because I don’t support Biden, a senile frontman for the Marxist left. When did the right to have a polite discourse disappear? It’s either their way or the highway. Me, I’ll take the highway.

I am appalled to think that anybody, at this point, would consider voting for Trump. Here are some salient reasons. He willnot helop the unemployed. Trump has done so much to oppose any help – he denied extensions for unemployment benefits to those who needed them. His foreign policy is dangerous. We seem to be getting into an aggresive mode by having poor stances on foreign policy (pulling out of treaties, not renegotiating on nuclear terms). trickle down dows not work. He is increasing the gap between the poor and the rich. We are built on a strong middle class society – that is going away. Trump values companies over people. Trump has given large companies a break.He has broken at least three of the ten commandment – if you are religious and still voting for him – remember: Thou shalt not commit adultery (oh boy do you really want more proof?), Thous shalt ot bear false witness – he has called people idiots, made fun of disabled, castigated women and then there is Thou shalt not kill – with 250,000 dead -DEAD on his watch – blood is on his hands. There is no limit to Donald Trump trying to steal this election – cut back on polling places, continuous saying there is fraud (no documentation …ever. How bout the emoluments clause. He is supposed to be the “law and order” guy – but he used his office for enrichment to himself and his family – asking the U.S. Ambassador to Britain to askthe British gov’t to have the British Open moved to his Turnberry Scotland course or sending his secret service to pay $650 a night at his resorts instead of a local base – just the start of his breaking the law. I could go on and on. Our country will not survive as a democracy if Trump is elected. He is a sociopath and a potential dictator. Read history and study it and you will see frightening comparisons of past dictators and this current president – he has to go. NO MORE FOUR MORE YEARS – BIDEN!!

Trump is the only choice for those who love and respect our Republic, period.

“This is about employing common sense.”

I do not hardly subscribe to either communism or a Marxism.

I am a woman with a daughter, beloved granddaughters, female relatives and friends and one of more than half of the population of these United States of America who are likewise female.

It is beyond me why you are clearly seeking support for someone who stated that “when you’re a star” “You can do anything … Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything.” and are making a clear effort to have him re-elected as the leader of our country.

Employing common sense would be supporting someone with integrity, skilled in crisis management and the ability to get things done. Someone with the leadership ability to select and surround themselves with good advisors, hiring the best and the brightest; a knowledge and understanding of the Constitution, with respect for it and the rule of law; the ability to identify with other points of view and not possessed with a problem with impulse control.

This is about employing common sense. No it is not. It is clearly about fear mongering. Could not help but note your comment: “Riots and desperation are everywhere throughout our country like never before. It is no accident. The movement is organized and paid for via haters of America, behind the scenes.” You however, clearly attempting to castigate the “left”, entirely failed to point out that “The U.S. Department of Homeland Security considers White supremacists and other “domestic violent extremists” as presenting “the most persistent and lethal threat” to the nation, the agency revealed in a report on Tuesday. The DHS’s “Homeland Threat Assessment” found that White supremacy extremism accounted for more fatal attacks in the U.S. than any other domestic violent extremist group since 2018, with eight of the 16 violent reported from 2018 through 2019. It also caused the majority of related deaths, with 39 of the 48, the report states. “I am concerned about any form of violent extremism. That is why we design our programs to be threat agnostic – ensuring that we can combat a broad range of domestic threats,” wrote Acting Secretary of Homeland Security Chad F. Wolf in the report. “However, I am particularly concerned about white supremacist violent extremists who have been exceptionally lethal in their abhorrent, targeted attacks in recent years.”

Like you, however, the president refuses to acknowledge that threat. “During the first presidential debate, when he was asked to denounce the Proud Boys, a far-right extremist group, Trump told the group to “stand back and stand by.” He followed that up by saying that political violence “is a left-wing problem.”

Perhaps the rest of the female population will forgive you for your callousness and total lack of empathy for us in your adamant support of this individual. Perhaps not.

Well Marshall, you really opened a can of worms. I voted for Trump. I’d voted for him even though I don’t like him. But, this election isn’t about personality likes and dislikes. It’s about the survival of this great country, something democrats know absolutely nothing about in todays day and age. Look at any democratic controlled city and state. Look at San Francisco where the “supervisors”, all democrats, allow people to urinate and defecate in the streets, allow them to bathe in the public fountains. Look at Seattle, Portland, Chicago, Baltimore, Michigan. I can go on but suffice it to say democrats need to be “bitch slapped” back into reality. Biden’s been in politics for 47 years and has done NOTHING but go along with the socialistic party. They destroyed social security, starting with LBJ, going thru Jimmy “Peanut Head” Carter, down thru Al Gore, but the demorats continue to blame the Republicans. What a crock of you know what. Democrats are trying to destroy this country and anybody who is stupid enough to vote for Biden/Harris should be, well, enough said.
