Be careful what you ask for

| September 10, 2020 1:00 AM

Dear Mary, you might consider getting your news from somewhere other than the alphabet stations. They have been spewing hateful venom President Trump's way since before he was inaugurated in 2016. And be careful what you ask for. A President Biden would wreck havoc that you have yet to see. 

As far as Social Security and Medicare, there is no plan to alter them except in fear tactics from "fake news". Every President in recent memory has increased the deficit, Republican and Democrat. The unparalleled times we are in surely adds to the deficit. Other option was to totally financially ruin the USA, and doing close to that anyway. In a Biden Presidency you can expect the deficit grow even faster due to all the new plans to spend the federal dollars and new recipients of Uncle Sam's largess. In spite of Biden's claims of would have done better with the "pandemic", how? President Trump cut China flights to the states early, channeled vaccine research so as to bypass old methods, which would have taken years to vaccine develop.

You wanted well paying jobs. Consider that under President Trump, average wage has gone up, more women, blacks and other minorities have record employment, until the covid shutdown. He has accomplished more in his 3 1/2 years than most Presidents have done in 8 years. Look it up. Ask what has Joe Biden accomplished in almost half a century of public "service", what did he vote for and against.  What is his health? Two brain aneurysm's won't help his mental capacity. Why else would they not want to debate President Trump?

President Trump's tweets can cause us all some cringes, but that is a product of where he grew up in NY, and the only way he can get his view point out to the mass media, which often distorts his messages.

Consider the policy and agenda that each candidate presents. President Trump is for law and order. Joe Biden has joined the radical left in calling for police defunding/reduced funding and not called out against the looting and burning in the Democratic governed cities and states. Biden has endorsed the "green new deal" which will economically strand the country. The fake news lies to you by not saying much about the destruction going on in those cities. Portland Oregon is over 90 straight days now. Seattle mayor called them "patriots" in the "summer of love". Some love!

Watch one episode of Hannity or Tucker Carlson. You will get a new perspective on the state of the Democratic run side of the union and what you may get in a Biden Presidency. Be careful what you wish for. Look up the Republican Convention, see a message of positivity, minorities telling you why they are Trumps supporters, and about the greatness of America. The Democratic convention was mostly hate of Trump and misleading economic outlook. Check out the economies of socialist countries. As Vladimir Lenin (killer of 60 million Russians) said "the goal of Socialism is Communism" , and "It is true that liberty is precious; so precious that it must be carefully rationed".

And for those interested in education "give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted". And we give the children over to the educational "indoctrination" system for 12 plus 4 years. No wonder we have chaos in the streets.
