4. There is not another issue in this election that is more important than the strength and integrity of American democracy

We must preserve the foundation that our founders built, from this kind of subversion and corruption. And that means voting for Harris/Walz and taking as many people along with us as we can persuade, push, whatever it takes to get them to do their duty, understanding that Trump poses a direct threat and voting against him is voting for your constitutionally protected rights.

If you think your bellyaching over a 20 cent increase in the price of a dozen eggs rises to the level of a political issue at all, and you don't bother to understand the root cause of inflation is less important than preservation of American democracy you're an idiot and you need to stay home on election day and let the rest of us who want freedom have it, so you can keep bellyaching. And by the way, if you think Trump is going to bring down the price of eggs or gas, you are as dumb as a stick.

Trump has done everything possible to steal this election, including helping stir up confusion and panic following Biden's debate performance. I don't believe, for one second, that Trump would have been elected over Biden. We now have the power to use this election to make a statement. And we need to make sure that happens.
