Trump worked to reduce government regulation, that is clearly reducing the level of government in our lives
To the great credit of the American people, the polls taken immediately after the Democratic Convention showed a significant drop in McGovern's popularity and a significant rise in Nixon's. At this writing, Nixon leads by the enormous figure of 26%.
I am not an admirer of President Nixon, as my readers know. But I urge every able-minded voter, of any race, creed, color, age, sex, or political party, to vote for Nixon – as a matter of national emergency. This is no longer an issue of choosing the lesser of two commensurate evils. The choice is between a flawed candidate representing Western civilization – and the perfect candidate of its primordial enemies.
If there were some campaign organization called "Anti-Nixonites for Nixon," it would name my position.
The worst thing said about Nixon is that he cannot be trusted, which is true: he cannot be trusted to save this country. But one thing is certain: McGovern can be trusted to destroy it.
Observing today's ghastly condition, if you substituted Trump for Nixon and Biden for McGovern in 2020, we would realize the profundity of this letter written nearly fifty years prior. Let's not make the same mistake in 2024. While we can't guarantee Trump will save the country, we can be sure any "establishment" candidate will continue to erode our freedoms and take us to the point of no return.
The contributors all made excellent points and brought up the related background.
After reading, it is interesting to compare the different views given by the four, especially that they all share our less government objective. Perhaps that objective takes a second place when the problem is outright chicanery, gross election fraud and misuse/weaponization of the justice system.
Ukraine is a self governing participant in a Commonwealth. One of the agreements is not to participate in NATO. Harris prompted the Russian military response by "suggesting" Ukraine join. BIG missed (or avoided?) opportunity.
He even NAILED the vaccine issue. "I created the vaccine, but he's the one who mandated. It's the mandates that the people hated!"
Wow. Talk about walking a razors edge right there. Near PERFECTION in messaging. Effectively saying I handed him a working vaccine, and then HE SCREWED the pouch and injured people with it. (Good messaging is generic enough to be interpreted differently by different people. Think: Yes We Can! It says nothing. It is interpreted as a positive statement of overcoming being suppressed by some, and outright Communism by others as it's applied to taking from those that have too much!)
Unfortunately, Gulchers are clearly in the top 1% of educated on both sides. We can speak to nuances 99% of the population will never comprehend. To quote Trump: "It's Sad!"
