November 5, 2024 ballot - Presidency

 

On the surface, binary choices appear to be the simplest. Choose A or choose B, or if you're a traditionalist choose zero or choose one.

 

Next Tuesday, the choice between Donald J trump and Kamala Harris is more complicated. The rhetoric used by the former president has become increasingly focused on promoting violence. Trump does not seek to be the president of a constitutional Republic. He is not interested in democratic rule. He wants to limit the ability of the legislative and judicial branches of our government have on his ability to take executive action.

 

Trump is not interested in the lives of his supporters. He is not interested in the lives of those who support vice president Harris. The only people he cares about have been described as the top 1%, referring to their level of income. One of his supporters stated publicly that the votes of women should only count for 50% unless they own property in their own names. His supporters include, but certainly not all, are racists. They are xenophobes, some of them. A number of those supporters are also misogynists and or misanthropes.

 

In contrast, vice president Harris is interested in the welfare of every American, those who support her and those who oppose her. She wants to make sure that all of us have a roof over our heads and food to eat daily. One thing I find interesting is how many people living off of government benefits decry the “nanny state.”

An examination of his ineffective and incoherent response to the COVID dash 19 pandemic demonstrates with clarity that he is unqualified to sit in the Oval Office.

 

I will be voting for Kamala Harris for president
