Integrity is on the ballot this November
Our country was based on a two-party system which has worked for many years. We now have a two-party system that includes the Democrats and a cult run by Donald J. Trump. If you think that there will be another “free” election if he wins the presidency, you are mistaken.
I realized I have never heard a great speech from Donald Trump. He has never addressed the needs of the oppressed, the homeless or mental health. He wants to be a dictator and control the country under his own ethics and moral compass.
Let us look at how that moral compass guides his statements.
Trump voiced conspiracy theories on Barak Obama including false claims of fraud in the 2012 election.
Trump is stating that Obama may still be running the country with Joe Biden as his puppet. (FALSE)
Trump voiced conspiracy theories on Kamala Harris and her citizenship. (FALSE)
There is a great replacement conspiracy theory that states that non-white immigrants from Latin America are seeking to displace “real” Americans. (FALSE)
Whites killed by Black people constitute 81% of crimes. (FALSE)
He witnessed Muslims in Jersey City cheering the 9/11 terrorist attack. (FALSE)
He called for an abortion ban with punishment for women.
Believes in limited access to reproductive health care.
Slashed funding for family planning
Allowing employers to reduce to provide no-cost contraception coverage.
Revoked protections against sexual harassment, assault and discrimination.
If you notice, all the above are anti-Black, anti-Muslim, anti-woman and anti-immigration. Let’s not forget he opposed the Equality Act, which would ensure existing civil right protections cover sexual orientation and gender identity as they already do for race, disability and veteran status.
At the end of the day, all of us are called to vote our conscience. How many of you are willing to sell your integrity, values and even soul to someone working against the very essence of American democracy and civil liberties.
