Candidate one: Hope, peace, secure border, women’s health, voting rights, unity in the future.

Candidate two: Misogynist, no respect, shifty, dangerous, unfit, chaos, bully, felon, narcissistic, “big lies” (a lie is a coward’s way of getting out of trouble). Fear mongering, conspiracies (if you don’t see it with your eyes, don’t invent it with your mouth), racist, denigrates people, insults veterans as suckers and losers (you’ll never move up if you are continually running somebody down). Threatens, must sign loyalty, truth and empathetic non-existence (a wise person is hungry for truth, while the fool feeds on trash, Proverbs 15:14). Above the law, no one equal (a conceited man has a swelling head and a shrinking brain). Wants to cut veterans benefits, social security, and completely cut the Affordable Care Act (don’t discourage the other man’s plans unless you have better ones to offer). Raise taxes, cuts taxes for the rich. Will use the Department of Justice or military as his police (where law ends tyranny begins, William Pitt), money is his God, swears there is no such thing as global warming (losers find excuses for why things don’t work).

When a man is wrapped up in only himself, he makes a pretty small package, John Ruskin.

He who is full of himself is likely to be quite empty.

Everyone admires a person with good sense, but a warped mind is despised, Proverbs 12:8.

Fools have no interest in understanding; they only want to air their own opinions, Proverbs 18:2.

A groundless rumor often covers a lot of ground.

Why on God’s blessed earth would a woman vote for him and believe he will protect them? The wolf wears sheep’s clothing.

Project 2025 is his Mein Kampf. This could be Germany in the 1930s, but, alas, it is us.

Vote. Your family depends on you.
