I'm Comfortable With Trump - Not Harris




I am totally okay with people who want to vote for X-President Trump for the sole reason that they are more comfortable with him. What I am not okay with is when his supporters start spouting half-isms, or just plain lies in their support.

I Support Because Wages Increased Under Trump: Why? Did it have anything to do with COVID-19 (COVID)? Did employers have problems finding people to work and had to increase wages in order to keep / attract people? Of course the answer is yes. I was one of the fortunate ones, or maybe not so fortunate because of fewer workers, I was considered an essential worker. However during the entire X-President Trump term I never received a raise, and was told during that period I was an exemplary employee. I am sure others found themselves in the same boat.

I Support Because Cost Of Groceries Less Under Trump: Why? Pre-COVID the economy ran pretty normal. Wallstreet seemed to be happy. At least half the country was happy. Then COVID hit reducing supply of goods, prime time for the industry to raise prices in order to keep items on the shelf for those who really needed it and would pay for it. In 2023 floods hit Texas ending in the destruction of over 10,000 cattle. In 2022 the bird flue hit our farms and the price of eggs more than doubled. Mother nature chose our fate, not who was in office.

So, everything was better under X-President Trump because of X-President Trump? Not in these cases. I am not saying there was nothing good that came out of the administration. Wages were increased, however I cannot attribute that to X-President Trump, at least at this moment.

Here are some facts to remember. Note the Federal Debt if you are a Republican:

The Life I Want

  The life I want is: One that makes me happy One that I have less material needs and more joy (without external forcing) One that we all co-exist One that we do not blame One that we acknowledge and resolve issues (a continual process of positive tension) One that we are open to change One that we do not compare to others to define ourselves One that everyone is accepted One that everyone has rights including the right to an abortion  One that healthcare is at the top of the list One that the elderly are taken care of One that is equitable in wealth (not suggesting at all everyone be the same) One that everyone is free to travel One that everyone is protected from harm One that everyone is free to just live a life Obviously there are more, and there are wants and desires that are personal which only I can take care of. Given that, X-President Trump is the furthest away from me to fulfilling my needs. Nobody will be 100% because these would be my needs. Not the needs of everyo...

The Return To Normal Energy Plants

The X-President makes it up as he goes. It worked in 2016 because the outlandish lies got him free media attention (free campaign marketing) to where he could hook his followers into believing, and to vote for him. It is not working now. His outlandish lies are now costing him the election. During the 2024 debate with Vice President Harris, the X-President made a statement to the affect that Germany is going back to "building normal energy plants". As the spokesperson for Germany's Climate Action Ministry put it, "I don't know what the presidential candidate means by that."  Normal energy to Germany is clean energy. Since Russia invested in the war to invade Ukraine, it's gas supply to Germany has reduced. Yes, Germany had to do something, but it was not to "build normal energy plants". Germany's commitment to clean energy increased. This can make one wonder, does the X-President have stronger ties to Russia than we believe to make a statem...
