I advocate a smaller government, lower taxes, fewer regulation, tapping out own energy sources, fair trade deals and securing our borders. I believe the economy grows and we accomplish what we've accomplished when we enable the people. I'm a constitutionalist, it's the absolute critical foundation that led to a country of freedoms, economic might and military strength. It's our success that makes us the melting pot of the world, attracting immigrants like my mom and your "friend"
There is not one democrat in DC that shares those ideals with me. Not one, most are polar opposite, and the likes of Bernie Sanders and AOC and the Squad represent a clear and present danger to everything our founding fathers created.
Most republicans don't even share all my views. But many share some of my views, so I'm a republican by default.
Your average republican talks like me, then acts like John McCain or Mitt Romney or Jeff Flake or the Lincoln Group when they get to DC, pure scum in the political arena. Part of the swamp, not the solution.
Democrats are even worse, they promise to fix the same problems for the same demographics for 20, 30,40 and 50+ fucking years. I wonder when urban voters are going to wake up and say "c'mon man". It's surreal
Democrats are polar opposites from me in the policy arena, it's that simple. I'm a policy wonk
Democrats create a problem that doesn't really exist, systemic racism being the most recent example, promise to fix that problem they just created and proceed to make it worse. All of their fraud enabled by their always lying media that carries their narrative for them. The media literally did all the campaigning for Biden, hiding him from the voters.
On the social front, I'm for legalization of recreational drugs, unrestricted early term abortions, banned late term abortions, legalization of gambling. I want to change the incentives for inner city kids. I want to financially reward not getting pregnant and graduating high school as opposed to rewarding them for having babies. I want to encourage them to get married and raise their children together as opposed to having policies that make sure sure they don't get married. You see, if they get married, they lose social benefits and tax rewards. We have to change that. Democrats oppose it all, they sell easy street. They literally keep poor people poor
I'm for school choice, something the poor people love because it gives them choices. Democrats, pretentious advocates for the poor, are more concerned about preserving their unions that help elect them.
Trump is the POTUS ever to try and implement policies for the people. Real policies that actually work
Let me know if you're still puzzled
