Before long, we will be selecting a new President; and, as circumstances now appear it will be Joe Biden verses Donald Trump. I don't feel comfortable regarding either. Friends suggest voting for the one that I dislike the least. I suppose that is something I should consider.
Donald Trump’s legal woes: I am not sure what to make of them. Most of my career in law enforcement and corporate security revolved around laws and putting together criminal cases that were compatible with the law. The violations to which Trump is now charged, esoteric to say the least, one would have to be an attorney to understand the elements of the crime and their significance, if any. One of the charges is that Trump consistently overvalued his properties to obtain loans. What in the heck does that mean? Did anyone lose money, was anyone harmed? Who is the victim? Where is the victim? Who is demanding criminal recourse? Isn't this a civil matter?
Secondly, Trump allegedly attempted to undermine the
Presidential Election of 2020. Well, he
did claim there was fraud involved.
However, I can say with total confidence, fraud did exist in the election. Fraud always has and it always will. The question is ‘how much’? Thanks to our Electoral College System, fraud
is somewhat minimized. How? Because some states have considerably more fraud than others.
On the other hand, I have a good understanding of the criminal conduct associated with the Biden family. This is the selling of political access and presumed favors from the likes of Joe Biden, the former Vice President, and now President. Vast amounts of money have questionably relocated from outside operatives (including the Communist Chinese) to the Biden family’s coffers through many suspicious companies used (undoubtedly) to ‘launder the money’ or disguise the origin. This is the prima facia indicator of all organized crime operations. The money was unquestionably illegal compensation intended to obtain access or political favors from Biden. Considering these actions by the Biden family, your best argument, your only argument, might be… ‘That’s what most politicians do.’ OK, sadly, you might be right. None the less, the Biden family’s illicit operations included fraudulent money laundering and tax evasion… prosecutable crimes. Furthermore, Joe Biden must be exceptionally good at selling political favors, he and his extended family have become multi-millionaires on Biden’s basic government salary… the American taxpayer is an easy mark… ignorant sheep… why not take advantage? Under the current circumstances, no sensible person would vote for Biden.
However,
many otherwise sensible people will vote against Trump; and might hand over a
second term to Biden.
It is time US citizens acknowledge that President Biden is
not a fully functional human being (sad but true). We must consider: ‘Who exactly is running our
country and fraudulently propping up the Ghost President?’ Can we afford to gamble that no foreign
government will use Biden’s cognitive decline and incompetence to further their
own gains? And, if so, what will be the
consequences?
My hope (if there is still time) is that a strong contender
in the Democratic Party will pull forward and allow (dare I say force) Joe to
retire. And give the Democrats a modicum
of pride in their vote.
Regarding Donald Trump, if he was to win the Presidency, he
will be endlessly bogged down in the criminal and civil charges that are stalking
him. The Presidency requires someone’s
full attention. Trump carries with him
almost insurmountable criminal and civil litigation. Are those charges against Trump politically
motivated? Yes, of course, almost
certainly. But still, we will need a ‘full
time’ President to lead us through the many critical times we will be facing
during the next four years. Not someone largely
distracted, as Trump will be, in personal legal matters. And what may possibly include jail time or
restrictive probation status. Can a
President pardon himself?
Just heard an interesting poll. If the Presidential Race was held today,
Trump would beat Biden by ‘one percentage point.’ DeSantis would beat Biden by ‘three points,’
and Nikki Haley would beat Biden by ‘eight points. Nikki Haley could be a big winner in the
election, if she could dislodge Trump.
She will have my vote in the Oregon Primary
