Re: The Donald’s McDonald’s Run

“I grew up by a college campus with the parents of at least 60% of my classmates university professors. Kamala did not have a middle-class upbringing. It may not have been Trump’s level, but it sure wasn’t middle class. Two things I know from my upbringing: University professors are very exclusionary and see themselves as much smarter than the rest of the world. Plus, the school systems they live in are far superior to average. I always say ‘upper middle class,’ which is very different from factory worker middle class. It makes me angry when I hear Harris say she grew up middle class. I sure didn’t.” —Wisconsin

Re: Harris Offers Blacks Handouts and Weed

“None of her plans will give black men in America one iota of what Trump gave them for four years — independence; pride of accomplishment; the human dignity of not having to depend on big, greedy government for their livelihoods; of being able to say, ‘I MADE/DID that. It’s mine and mine alone.’ Until Democrats recognize that, win or lose elections, they will always be losers.” —California

Re: What Happened to Kamala Harris?

“Before anyone starts taking victory laps, I’ll remind them of the power of stupidity, irrationality, and selfishness. The 2022 Oklahoma gubernatorial election was between Kevin Stitt, a popular Republican governor, and a former Oklahoma state school superintendent, Joy Hofmeister. Hofmeister was charged (but not convicted) in 2016 with felony conspiracy and campaign finance violations. She was a former Republican who switched parties to run against him. In a state where Republicans have been pounding Democrats 2:1 in elections, Stitt barely survived on 52% of the vote. The issue that drove record numbers of Oklahoma women to the polls? Abortion, of course. Stitt opposed it. Hofmeister celebrated it.” —Oklahoma

Re: Another Election-Denying Attack on the Electoral College

“So what happens when they run the whole country with one party? Do we have to sit back and listen to them manipulate us and end up standing in line to pay $500 for a flip phone ? What’s to stop them? We all watched as Joe Biden gave the middle finger to the Supreme Court over student debt. When the low-informed find out Walmart no longer exists and you have to go to the government store and wait in line for hours to get a moldy loaf of bread, who are they going to blame?” —North Carolina

Re: Paying for Illegal Alien Healthcare

“Somebody has to make up the difference when non-paying illegals receive treatment at hospitals and clinics, and those are the taxpayers.” —Minnesota

Re: We Want Justice!

“Over 30 million ‘Christians,’ according to Barna, plan to sit out this election again.”

“I hear people say they aren’t political. That Jesus is not a part of politics. Nonsense. Was there no politics during the time of Jesus — no kings, queens, emperors, slavery, etc.? The Founding Fathers had the influence and guidance of the Lord. ‘All men are created equal.’ They were signing their death warrant. We must remember that and all the sacrifices and determination to keep this nation since then!” —Texas

Re: The Welfare of the City

“I totally hear this argument, and in a form I can agree with. There are two possible explanations. One: Christians have fallen prey to the lie regarding the separation of church and state. If you read the original documents you see that the Founding Fathers saw the explicit need for Christians to engage in politics. It is the only way that the government stays ‘One Nation UNDER God.’ Two: Christians are more aware that we are citizens of Heaven, so the argument would go, ‘Why focus on earthly matters?’ To my fellow Christians who think this way, I can only say this: If you don’t get involved and vote for God’s purposes, you will be helping usher in hell on earth.” —Florida

Re: Evening Walk, Neighborhood Talk

“When I’m asked that question, I reply, ‘I used to be a JFK Democrat. Since the party has made the widest, broadest, and largest plank of its platform the wanton destruction of non-white babies, I determined I can no longer support it.’ When they question my response, I remind them that only about 30% of all aborted babies are white. That means about 70% are people of color. If more is needed, I tell them that every time they hear ‘clump of cells’ or ‘fetus,’ think ‘Jew’ for a more clear picture of what is being done in their name.” —California
