I want to share a few thoughts with my conservative, Democrat, and Christian friends. I have a few friends in each of these categories. We have learned to agree to disagree without being disagreeable. Some of these friends have told me they could never vote for President Donald Trump.

My Democrat friends have always voted Democrat. That’s true even though many times they elect people whose values are in direct conflict with their own.

It’s my Christian friends who confuse me regarding President Trump. I have always believed that character and integrity were critical in those we elect to public office. But tell me, which of your most senior leaders in the Democrat Party are the role models and stellar examples of character and integrity?

Nancy Pelosi? Chuck Schumer? Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez? Bernie Sanders? Ilhan Omar? Maxine Waters? Adam Schiff? How about good old Uncle Joe? Anyone who’s paying any attention knows that Biden will say and do ANYTHING to get elected. Always has, always will! He lies about things he doesn’t have to lie about.

You see, friends, the lack of character and integrity is unfortunately the current state of our nation’s culture. We gave up expecting it in our elected officials many years ago. And we’re paying the price for it with what we’re seeing now.

Having said that, if there is one issue above all others that would cause me to vote for Trump, it’s the issue of LIFE!

In 1970, New York State made abortion legal. In 1973, the Supreme Court found a “right” in the Constitution, apparently hidden for almost two centuries, that women could legally kill their unborn child. The justices made it legal all across the country, voters be damned. The priests on the Supreme Court knew what’s best for us.

Fifty years later, and after 60 million babies have been slaughtered in the womb, our nation has become something unrecognizable to our Founding Fathers. Just like ancient nations before us, we sacrificed our children to the pagan gods of the times. For America, it was the God of Choice.

President Trump has appointed more than 200 federal judges and has just seated his third conservative justice on the Supreme Court in Amy Coney Barrett. He is arguably the most pro-life president we’ve ever had. He is the ONLY president to personally attend the March for Life, not caring what people thought! He was more concerned about the tragedy of abortion than opinion polls.

Yes, Trump is a flawed, imperfect person, just like you and I are imperfect. What have you and I accomplished the past four years to slow the slaughter of our most innocent and defenseless, the unborn?

How many more innocent lives need to be taken away by abortion before the guilt and weight of our sins causes the Holy God in Heaven to say “ENOUGH”?

Have you considered that on September 11, 2001, God lifted his hedge of protection around our nation? Have you considered that COVID-19 may be His way of getting our attention, like one of the plagues unleashed on ancient Egypt to get Pharaoh’s attention?

So, you can vote for Biden and all of the Democrats who want abortion to continue, even up to and after the child is born. Remember, in 2019, New York State legislators cheered when they passed legislation with no restrictions on abortion! That’s how far they have fallen in their depravity.

My Democrat friends, remember: It was YOUR party leaders who said there was no place for pro-life Democrats. Your party has taken God out of your platform. They despise people of faith. Consider this when you cast your ballot.

Yes, Trump is arrogant, narcissistic, and egotistical. And Biden isn’t? Keep telling yourself that.

What is amazing is how God took a person like Trump, put him into the highest office in the land, and used him to do so much GOOD for the country. A country that he loves! I love this country too!

And because I want to see President Trump have a chance to continue changing our courts with conservative, constitutional constructionist judges, to one day stop the genocide of abortion, I’m voting for him again. He has done more for America than I could ever have imagined four years ago.

Something to pray about?
