Through a number of social media mechanisms that I do not fully understand, I occasionally see electronic conversations between and among friends and relatives where I am just included for...information? Since I do not have a lot of contact with adult humans (of voting age) under 40 years old, some of the views I see expressed seem...not quite right. Not quite informed. Fatuous.
Recently it occurred to me that the uniformly anti-Trump comments from the young adults are essentially all based on a dislike of Donald Trump. There are the usual vacuous slanders about his intellect, his "corruption," and his spending too much time golfing and tweeting, but when you boil it all down to its essence, they "hate" Donald Trump.
Two things occur to me about this phenomenon: First, the dislike is not surprising given the last four years of the Media slandering him (coupled with his often obnoxious communications and actions), but Second, Who gives a shit whether the President is likable, kind, lazy, easily distracted, or any of that? What difference does it make? What matters is how he is doing at being President. We have three years of history by which to judge him.
In the coming election, we have a choice between one candidate - the incumbent - who has staked out the RIGHT/CORRECT position on every single important issue of the day,
Regarding current events, he has done everything conceivable to avoid a global Depression in the face of an unprecedented medical situation, and has experienced nothing but petty sniping and Monday-morning-second-guessing from his opponents and the Media. And as for the current spate of riots, he seems to be the "only adult in the room." The Democrats - especially the mayors of the worst-run cities in the country - are cheering the rioters on, then demanding Federal money to repair the damage. Are they even serious?
And on the other side, we have an old, worthless, not terribly bright, life-long politico who has not a single major accomplishment to boast of after nearly half a century sucking at the government's capacious teats. Even ignoring his huge corruption problem, he is a person who has abandoned every political "stand" he has taken in his entire career as soon as critics from the left take umbrage (which is what they live for, taking umbrage). A person who has adopted the entire phony, empty-headed agenda of the extreme Left, yet does everything he can to hide it. His entire campaign thus far is the "message" that Things would be better if he were President. No details, no explanation, no policy discussion, no nothing. Just trust me.
How can the next election result be beneficial if so many voters are focused on things that are unimportant, and they ignore what is vital? I personally don't care much for Donald Trump, but I intend to vote for him "early and often," as the saying goes, both by mail and in person, to try to offset at least some of the massive fraud that the Left is cooking up for November.

- the environment,
- climate change,
- healthcare,
