Why would anyone vote Republican today? I look at the people in the Republican Party and I do not see a single person that I would want to run the country. We are a country that is very divided. Would you keep the dividers in power? Trump divided the country. Every other president that I have seen in my 68 years worked to unite the country. He declared the Democrats the enemy of the people. He lost the popular vote so, in reality, over half the voters were the enemy of the people.  Marjorie Taylor Greene declares the Democrats the enemy of the people. People that want a strong united America don’t talk like that. I can tell you that I don’t like a couple of my neighbors but I would never consider then the enemy of the people. Feeding the peoples hate with lies and insults is not a way to make America strong. Never has been and never will be. In fact all the lying and misinformation from the Republicans like Marjorie Taylor Greene has done more to weaken our democracy and has strengthened our enemies. The more divided we become the weaker we become and we need to eliminate the things that weaken us like the filibuster.

I have stated before that I grew up in a Republican household. Many of my political beliefs were developed back then but the Republican Party was way different back then. Now over the years I have changed but not as much as the Republican Party has. I have looked at the Republican Party Platform from 1956 and I am just amazed how far right the Republicans have become. It is to the point that yesterday’s conservative are more like liberals today. There are very few real liberals but most of us are like the Republican Moderates of the 60s. I look at what the Eisenhower administration accomplished and am waiting for any Administration to try and equal it. The 60s space race does come close but nothing has enhanced Americans Freedom like the Interstate. Freedom to travel this great and beautiful nation like past generations never could. That freedom is taken for granted by all of us now. Those accomplishments were done by who they call the greatest generation. The generation that fought for not only our freedom but of the freedom of the world. We are not talking about masks and shots. We are talking about the freedom to live. They knew real freedom and not the hallow word that Ted Cruz screams walking across the stage. Those men put their lives on the line so the world would be a safer place for all. Today’s Republican cries freedom just because he thinks it makes him look like some patriot that he is not.

The greatest generation freed millions but today Republicans want to suppress anyone that does not believe as they. The problem is what do the Republicans believe in? They believe in violence. They believe in giving to the rich. They believe in doing away with regulations which are meant to help future generations. They believe in voter suppression as a means to maintain power. What don’t they believe in? They don’t believe in fair elections. They don’t believe in our Constitution. They do not believe in equality between the races. They don’t believe in education. They don’t believe in helping our veterans. Every time I see a Wounded Warriors Project Commercial I just want to scream. Why do people have to beg for money to help our veterans? They don’t believe that women are equal to men. Women do not deserve equal pay or equal control of their bodies. It is ok for a women to have a voice as long as it is Republican approved voice.  

We have seen a good picture of what the Democrats believe in. They believe in better roads. They believe in fair elections. They believe that everyone should have a voice in our government. They believe that racism is not good for our country. They believe in Family. They believe in healthcare. They believe that education can solve many of the world’s problems. They believe in the law being dealt out fairly. They believe that global warming is real and we must start working now if we are going to give future generation and chance. They believe in freedom of religion.  But most of all they believe in our Constitutional Government. They think that the American Dream should be there for everyone. Those were the dreams of the Republicans at one time but not anymore.  

If you want our Constitutional Republic to survive you need to vote for the people that truly want it to survive.  Our Democracy was attacked by Domestic Terrorist that were supported by a large portion of the Republican Party. The Republicans are dead set against the John Lewis Voters act. Why? Because that don’t want the country to use their voice. They want all the bribes pouring into Washington even if they are foreign bribes meant to weaken our democracy. They want the corruption to continue and some want our democracy to fail. The question is do you want out democracy to fail.

  Something I have written many times on social media is that when our Justice Department becomes a tool of the oppressor, we are losing our Democracy. Dictators have always used the Justice Department to oppress the people. Germany had its Gestapo and the SS, which were used to kill millions. Stalin had his NKVD, which would later become the KGB, that he used to kill millions and consolidate his power. China has its Chenguang, which is known for its violent methods. That is how things work in a country that is run by a dictator.   They use their personal Justice Departments to suppress and eliminate threats to their power. Is that now what is happening in this country? I swear, Trump wants to be just like the Communist and Fascist dictators. Trump seems to want to use our Justice Department more as his personal goon squad than a department that serves the people. He is starting with ICE. ICE is an agency that was formed after 9/11 and put under the Department of Homeland Se...
  We are a fascist state when we have ICE agents not in uniforms and hiding their faces behind masks. That is right. We have a law enforcement agency that is running around more like the Gestapo of Nazi Germany than what we are supposed to have and what is valued in America. We are sending not only undocumented immigrants but also asylum seekers and foreigners on student visas to detention camps here and on foreign soil. They are just being snatched off the streets with no due process. This is not the America I grew up in. This is nowhere to be found in the religion I learned and practiced in my youth. This is like fascism. Every day, we seem to hear the term “Extreme Left Judges.” It doesn’t matter whether it is a judge appointed by a Republican president or a Democratic president. If that judge disagrees with any of Trump's executive orders, he or she is being branded as a “Radical Judge”. These so-called “Rogue Judges” are being attacked by much of the Republican Party besides...
  American exceptionalism, we have always heard about American exceptionalism. To be honest with you I never understood what that meant. What are we exceptional at? Sports? Are we exceptional because we produce the greatest athletes? Music? Are we exceptional because we produce the greatest musicians? Because we have the greatest Army in the world? Does that make us exceptional? I was told American exceptionalism is now based on Freedom, not truth and justice. Freedom of speech except for groups we don’t like. Freedom of religion except for those religions we don’t like. Freedom of love except only certain kinds. Is it only what we will accept, that is American exceptionalism now? Time magazine published an article stating the United States has been added to the Global Human Rights Watchlist due to the decline of civil liberties. We are on the same watch list that those third-world countries are on that Trump called shithole countries.   I thought I would never see that in m...
