The Democratic/socialist debates were the same old soup just warmed over. All basically promise the same thing: give-aways, higher taxes and gun confiscation. I don’t need free college, loan forgiveness, Medicare for all or a $15 minimum wage.
I was born in a Democrat family and grew up in a Democrat town, Arnold, where the main attraction is Roosevelt Park, named after President F.D. Roosevelt. I am a registered Democrat for one reason only: I vote. With Pennsylvania’s closed primary elections, I would miss this opportunity if I wasn’t registered.
Republicans in our town are as scarce as hens’ teeth. Registering and voting are two separate items. I vote family values and will never knowingly vote for a politician who promotes abortion, homosexuality, same-sex marriage, open borders or mob rule. I think every mentally stable person has the right to own a gun. Schools should offer gun-training classes to teach proper use, just as they do drivers’ education. I support the Nation Rifle Association and think it is an aid to our country.
I handle criticism fairly well, and name-calling from Hillary Clinton voters won’t change my opinion. You have your thoughts; I have mine and will vote accordingly. I still think Trump is the best president since Ronald Reagan. Those talking impeachment should remember that Bill Clinton was impeached but never removed from office. Do you really believe that you can impeach Trump?
