STONE MOUNTAIN, Ga. | Republicans need to answer the following questions and concerns before they deserve re-election at every level.
How does a party obsessed with the national debt vote for a man who had an $8 trillion deficit at the end of his term, because of tax breaks mostly to the rich?
- How can the party of compassionate conservatism become the party of concentration camps for the deportation of people trying to get into the country and failing legally, because Trump killed a conservative bill that would have substantially improved the immigration problem? It was a measure so good that it was endorsed by border patrol agents.
- How did the party of family values elect a twice divorced philanderer, rapist, liar, and convicted criminal?
- How can a party survive with withdrawal of an individual woman’s right to choose her health care and endangered her life?
- How can a party profess to care about the unborn until they are born and then only care about them again when they reach military age by denying funds for adequate education and health care while they are growing up?
Also, let’s not forget the high infant mortality rate in Georgia and the failure to expand Medicaid. This failure has also contributed to hundreds of deaths in Georgia and the closing of many rural hospitals. Both caused by a Republican Governor and dominated legislature.
Other questions remain.
Why would any woman vote for an organization that is toadying to the National Rifle Association and makes your children in school insecure and unsafe? Moreover, you are forced to use local tax dollars to harden security measures at schools. Finally, why would you vote for anyone that denies climate change and jeopardizes your children’s and grandchildren’s future and uses deregulations for businesses and products that pollute the environment and harm your health?
In summary, how can a party that has failed to address the cultural, socio-economic and technological changes even deserve your vote?
Finally, how can a party with no vision, no generation of new leaders, and no new ideas in the party’s base even survive? My guess is they will use voter suppression techniques, use “dark money” and gerrymandering of voting districts to stay in power at the state level.
Meanwhile, the Democrats drain the swamp, but the cesspool better known as the 2025 Project grows larger.
