You did not make a mistake voting for Kamala Harris. There’s plenty of clips out there of her talking about the 2025 plan

Getting rid of Social Security getting rid of the Department of Education everything that we are watching being done now. She did know and does know the personality of Donald Trump and I do believe she would’ve made a good president. We certainly wouldn’t be in the position. We are right now.

Charlie, you are NOT a Conservative - it is doubtful that you ever were! Being a 'never Trumper' is one thing, but supporting the most Liberal candidate is another. Everything Conservatives stand for Harris is against. Regardless, your endorsement of an extremist Liberal only confirms how far left of center you truly are. So sad but at least the truth is out...

Thank you Charlie. Supporting Harris takes a lot of guts. I've always wondered how many Democrats could do the same if the shoe was on the other foot.

The reason is that the Democratic party is more Republican than the Republican party. Republicanism is about revering institutional or representative democracy. Republicanism at its core is anti-populist.

We all know he dislikes Trump but when you vote FOR someone, their background beliefs, endorsements, and policies, as well as job performance should also reflect YOUR beliefs, etc.

Very sad to say the least.

How can close to 50% of voters want to put a whiny, destructive toddler in the White House? His evil Roy Cohn is gone, but White Supremacist, Steven Miller and other Cohn acolyte who wants to tear our government down, Steve Bannon, will be closer than ever. It seems like when Kamala called Trump, “not a serious person,” his followers took it to mean he was just kidding. Please, Kamala, in these closing weeks mention having advisers who are looking for ways to lower our deficit. When you talk of raising Corporate taxes refer to high taxes of past years that have still kept our country rolling. Repeat several times that you are a Capitalist and look forward to working with Rotary Clubs especially as entrepreneurs build new businesses. It could help if you elevated Trade Schools as part of High Schools. In my day, not only did we have woodworking and dressmaking but we had a Trade School in the same area as the H.S. HOPE IS NOT A STRATEGY. Time to add a hook.

I am registered as an independent who (as this would turn out) has never voted for a Republican. You have now become my voice! Please try to keep this fearful moment in a perspective that gives uus some assurance that Donald Trump does not and will not ever speak for us or our country.

I’m glad you finally endorsed. See I told you it wouldn’t hurt you. You may not agree on issues but you’re willing to sit, talk and work it out.

I can honestly tell you that student loan debt is nothing more than the lender being a loan shark. I could make payments and still owe the same amount a year later, nothing paid in ever went to principal of the loan. How can that be fair after 5, 10 or more years? Not to mention small for profit colleges that after 5-7 years closed up shop and never submitted the transcripts to the state showing you attended, courses taken and GPA so you could transfer to a state college to further your education. Not all of them get caught like the bigger, nationwide ones. Yeah that happened to me. Graduated with a 4.0, 2nd in my class with a degree in business management and I went to get my transcript from the state 4 years later and the state never received them and the school closed 2 years after I graduated. Nobody had their transcripts between 1989-1992. At least now there’s more regulation of these places.

Oh and BTW fiscal conservative, look back on history and see how republican presidents raised the deficit in comparison to democratic presidents. Reagan ruined it when he cut the taxes on the big corporations and rich because we didn’t have the huge deficits cause of the tax rate that was in place since Roosevelt. Social security was funded for the future and then raided by republicans to pay the corporate tax cut.
