Because I don't have faith that Trump is going to be better in those areas:Mothra said:I am no fan of Trump, and wasn't a huge fan of his policies, but when the other side's policies are a fiery and burning train wreck, I will agree with another poster that at least Trump's policies do far less damage than what we've seen under Biden/Harris.Bestweekeverr said:What are Trump's policies?4th and Inches said:vote for who you think has the best policies and all will be right in your world. Ignore the noise, they want you to get sucked into the noise and ignore the policy stances..Bestweekeverr said:Trump ran the scam Trump UniversityMothra said:I mean, honestly, this is laughable. Anyone who thinks Kamala has better character than either Trump or Vance is looking through a hyper-partisan lens. I mean, you have a leftist who slept her way to the top, used her race to get her advantages, made very questionable well-documented prosecutorial decisions, had multiple sexual relationships with men of questionable character, married a guy who got his nanny pregnant, has been totally incompetent as VP, changes her dialect to match her audience, and is disingenuous as the day is long.Frank Galvin said:
Saw him interviewed last week. Whatever you think of his policies, he will be an effective campaigner.
Also, on the personal character front the Democrats have it all over the GOP. Donald Trump is just a scum bucket of a human beong and JD Vance has demonstrated he has no personal convictions other than being for JD Vance. The Dems have picked a career prosecutor and a career teacher/football coach.
LOL. I doubt anyone is buying what you're selling.
Trump tried to get Playboy to do a spread called "The Girls of Trump" featuring his female employees.
Trump cheated on his first wife with Marla Maples, then divorced her, and married Maples. Then another divorce.
Trump married Melania, and cheated on her with a Pornstar.
Trump defamed a woman that accused him of sexually assaulting her.
Trump tried to override 80 million American voters with his unapproved elector scheme, and almost got his VP killed in the process.
Kamala isn't a good person either, but remove the plank from thy own eye first.
Jailing people that burn the American flag? Unconstitutional but he doesn't care
Deporting 15-20 million immigrants? Ignoring the fact that this is an impossible task, will cost billions and result in higher inflation
Lower corporate taxes so the deficit goes up even more? Awesome
We've already seen that he is ineffective getting legislation through congress even with a Republican Senate and House.
Why should I ignore the "noise" and vote for this guy?
I mean, in a nutshell, 1) we have more than twice the amount of illegal immigrants flooding the country, with no end in sight, and little if anything done to fix the problem; 2) cost of living and inflation exponentially increasing under Biden/Harris; 3) a foreign policy that has led us to the precipice of war with a nuclear power, a bellicose China threatening its neighbors, an unchecked NK, an out of control Iran, and war in the ME, Fall of Saigon moment in Afghanistan, 4) attempts to force vaccine mandates on millions of Americans through OSHA, of all things (thank God for the Supreme Court); 5) out of control spending, 6) attempts to get rid of white supremacy in the military (where apparently that wasn't a problem); 7) a focus on DEI and woke policies throughout all level of govt.; and 8) an economy on the precipice of a recession.
I mean, if those aren't enough policy reasons to hold your nose and vote Trump, I am not sure what is.
1. Trump, an unelected person, has already tanked the bipartisan border bill earlier this year so that the border would still be an issue and help get him elected. The bill was negotiated by Republican Senator James Lankford and would've tackled the asylum issue that is the biggest problem facing the border. Wasting billions on a border wall won't do much without addressing the asylum problem. All this is ignoring my opinion that the mass immigration problem is way overblown. Oh no, all this cheap labor wants to come to our country during times of high inflation and declining birthrates, the horror.
2. Trump's proposed policies are only going to make the cost of living and inflation worse with his proposed aggressive tariffs and deportation of cheap labor. Inflation grew exponentially worldwide as a result of the response to the pandemic and compounded with supply-chain issues, and the US had one of the best recoveries compared to other nations. Yes, Biden/Harris admin did things to make inflation worse but they also did things that helped. We would've seen similar levels of inflation no matter who was president
3. Funny you mention NK since Trump gave them more credibility by actually meeting with Kim and saluting his soldiers. If Trump is president Russia still invades Ukraine, but would've already won the war. October 7th still happens. The withdrawal from Afghanistan was set on the timeline that Trump set, the suicide bombing at the airport was ISIL-K not the Taliban so I don't see how it plays out any different.
4. Well when as many Americans are dying as they did on 9/11 everyday a Vaccine mandate sounds pretty good. A lot more Trump voters would still be alive.
5. See Trumps first term, but add lower revenues so an even higher deficit
6. Non issue
7. Cringe but non issue
8. The fact that we never had a recession after Covid is miracle, and mainly thanks to the FED which Trump wants to control and make less independent. One bad day on the stock market (which are already bouncing back) does not make a recession.
