If you vote dimocrap this Tuesday, you hate America and Americans.
It's just that simple
1. The Unemployment numbers are great. Who or what is most responsible for them is open to debate.
2. Trump has attacked American alliances like NATO that have kept the peace in Europe for decades, prevented a Russian take over of Europe as well as World War III. He has weakened those Alliances with his words and thoughts and strengthened Russia and Putin. Russia and Putin want to divide and dismember the NATO Alliance, the European Union, as well as have independence movements in Spain and the United Kingdom(Scotland). Trump is on the same page as Putin on this and it is terrible for United States security and will increase the likely hood of war in Europe in the Future.
3. Trump may be an agent of the Russian Federation. There is some evidence which points to collusion with the Russians in order to get elected. Not proven yet, but certainly very concerning. Trump has sided with Putin on many issues and refuses to directly criticize him. It suggest that perhaps Putin has compromising information on Trump making the President of the United States a hostage to Putin essentially if true.
4. Trumps meeting with the North Korean leader was a disaster. The North Koreans got the face to face meeting they had wanted for decades. The United States got nothing. North Korea continues to build and upgrade is nuclear and long range missile capabilities.
5. Trump supports removing U.S. troops from South Korea and has stopped major training exercises in South Korea. All of that benefits the North Korean regime and hurts United States security.
6. Trump essentially bent over for Putin at their meeting in Helsinki Finland. Defending Putin and attacking are own security services on the issue of Russian interference in the U.S. 2016 election. He did this in full view of the public with Putin, on the world stage. Siding with an enemy of the United States over his own country. It was treason and another sign that he may be an agent of the Russian Federation.
7. Trumps Tarrifs on other countries simply mean other countries will slap tarrifs on us which will weaken United States Exports. Weakening U.S. exports will threaten the United States economy and hurt the country. This is the practice that turned the 1929 recession into the GREAT DEPRESSION!
8. Its pointless to be sending thousands of U.S. troops to the border with Mexico. We have border patrol agents and police that watch the border. Its an unnecessary political ploy to motivate ignorant elements of his base and get them to the polls.
9. The United States needs immigrants coming to this country in order to sustain economic growth. Birth rates are down. Businesses need more workers. There is a serious labor shortage in the country that may threaten future economic growth. At a time when the country needs more immigrants, Trump setting up obstacles.
10. The caravan that he opposes is not an invasion. Its simply a few thousand people who want to leave life threatening conditions in Honduras and come to the United States. The United States has millions of jobs that are not being filled. The people in this caravan can help with that. The United States army also missed its recruiting goal by 5,000 people in 2018, for the first time in 13 years. There are many people in the caravan of military age who could help with that and they are less likely than your average American in the 18-29 age group to be disqualified from service because they are overweight or obese like 67% of Americans.
