In 2020, 33.2 percent, approximately 80 million people, did not vote. If the recent Supreme Court presidential immunity ruling wasn’t enough wake-up call to the American people, consider the Times magazine Trump interview by Eric Cortellessa, May 27.
His agenda: Deportation of 11 million people, build migrant detention camps, let red states monitor women’s pregnancies and prosecute those who violate, willing to fire a U.S. attorney general who doesn’t carry out his order to prosecute someone, weighing pardons for his more than 800 supporters convicted of attacking the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. He might not come to the aid of an attacked ally in Europe or Asia if he felt the country has not paid enough for its own defense, extend 2017 tax cuts, 100 percent tariff on some Chinese goods, and he would gut the civil service, affecting 2.87 million people.
Does any of this sound like Trump is working for the American people? Thousands of people work for the presidency, and it is more than a 90-minute debate. President Joe Biden works for Americans even when they don’t vote. Please vote for democracy.
