The Spin

A vote for Harris means a better future for America. When it comes to every issue, especially the economy, foreign policy, and immigration, Harris has promised to legislate from a position of consensus and reach across the political divide from conservatives to progressives. Trump, meanwhile, is a threat to the rule of law and the health of capitalism that must be stopped at all costs. To think that this man — who so clearly should be disqualified from office for being a convicted felon — remains so close to the presidency is a terrifying thought for the future of America.

It's easy to vote Trump over Harris when you compare track records. Trump's presidency brought a robust economy, while Harris has been part of an administration that created rampant inflation. While the Southern border was safe under Trump, Harris' administration let illegal migrants enter unfettered. Mainstream media may side with his opponents and have engaged in a consistent attempt to frame him as a fascist villain, but in the end, Trump was, and once again will be, a president for the American people.
