Republicans Admit that they are Incapable of Winning a Secure and Fair Election
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart
If you are of average intelligence, you have no doubt that
the 2020 election was as described by Trump’s own ‘election czar,’ “the most
secure and fair election in history.” The truth about the 2020 election is that
when there is a large voter turnout Democrats typically win the important
races.
A lower turnout reveals apathy from Democrats and
Independents, and Republicans have a greater opportunity to be victorious.
TRUMP, REPUBLICANS, AND FOX NEWS ARE TELLING US THAT HE
CANNOT WIN THE DEBATE OR THE GENERAL ELECTION
Sean Hannity on Fox News, other Trump fake journalists on
even more extreme broadcasts, and Trump himself are all making excuses for
Trump’s loss in next Wednesday’s televised debate.
Let’s be totally truthful; Trump has never participated in a
legitimate debate. Some might think it’s because he is virtually illiterate. However,
not once has he answered a direct question. He uses the same ridiculous tactic
he used during his press conferences between 2017 and 2021. If he doesn’t know
the answer, or simply doesn’t want to answer, he says things like, “I’m not talking
to you, you are fake news.” In simpler terms, he runs away.
During the 2016 campaign his staff used similar tactics when
interviewed on national television broadcasts. Not once did the mainstream
media force them or Trump himself to give a direct answer to questions which
were “uncomfortable.” It appeared that they forgave him for knowing nothing
about our government. This is the primary reason I no longer watch television “news.”
The entire right-wing of our nation’s politicians are
blaming Biden for Trump’s eventual loss on June 26th, and for his probable
defeat on November 5th.
One hilarious fact amazes me. In a roundabout way, the
right-wing is praising the President for his impressive performance during his
State of the Union Address. They are claiming that Mr. Biden was on drugs,
specifically the cocaine left behind in the White House by the Trump
administration. They are all telling the same lie, suggesting that he will use
drugs before Wednesday’s debate.
The truth is that throughout his long and accomplished
career Mr. Biden displayed his passion and love for his country when speaking
before the American people. It’s no more complicated than that.
The general election in November presents many obstacles for
Trump. Voters with a conscience who want to do the right thing, will have great
difficulty voting for a convicted felon, a self-proclaimed and convicted sexual
predator, and a man who admits that his presidency would be focused on revenge
and do so by becoming a dictator and declaring martial law. Once again, he
would do nothing but play golf, and party with his wealthy friends at
Mar-a-Lago, while dividing our nation further, and shredding more pages of the
Constitution. Heaven forbid our nation faced another healthcare emergency.
Is this what the American people want or need from our
President?
FOR ME, THE ELECTION IS SIMPLE: I COMPARED THEIR RECORDS
DURING FOUR YEARS
From 2017 through 2021, Donald Trump cannot legitimately
claim a single accomplishment which benefitted all Americans. His tax cuts for
the super-rich remain in place, set to expire in 2025. That’s it. I won’t bore
you by repeating his many failures and crimes against the United States of
America: it would require pages and pages to tell the tale.
Mr. Biden began his first year in office in a very different
way. He put together a team with the expertise to develop an efficient
distribution for the Covid-19 vaccine. None was in place when he took office on
January 20, 2021.
He acted immediately to put programs into effect which saved
our nation’s economy. Checks were issued to all Americans who struggled through
the pandemic. Jobs returned, and unemployment has steadily declined. Today
America’s economy is in the best situation it has been since 1999.
He encouraged congress to pass a bill which would repair our
crumbling infrastructure, and create good-paying jobs. Not only are jobs
available, the rate of pay for these and other jobs have experienced a
measurable increase.
His list of successes is long. Some might mean nothing to
you, but all of them are focused on improving the quality of life for the
working class.
The two men are completely opposite. Trump continues to
represent the super-rich and all-white Americans. The President remains focused
an 330+ million people.
These irrefutable facts alone convince me that a Biden
victory is guaranteed if voters go to the polls in large numbers, or use the
mail-in option. I am handicapped, and greatly appreciate the latter.
It’s your country, and your vote. You proved that you matter
in 2020, let’s do it again.
