Dear Editor:

The following is a synopsis from a few people I've spoken to about the past elections.

They concluded that the Republicans had it right. “They had 25 candidates to choose from, and they chose the one they wanted." The Democratic Party selected its presidential nominee during a virtual roll call held before the in-person 2024 Democratic National Convention.

Another complaint was in 2020 nobody wanted Biden. "We wanted Bernie, they just stuck Biden in, we didn't have a choice."

My response to no choice was – You had a choice, you could have voted for Trump. Perhaps since they were all Trump haters I should have expounded on that. I should have said – By voting in a candidate you didn't want you were just emboldening the "Party." Once the "party" is in power and said leader of the party rules by executive power with complete disregard of the Supreme Court, you effectively have a dictatorship. That's why I say the Democrat Party is now the Communist Party.

So remember, if you vote for any Democrat, you're voting for a continuation of the last four years and a continuation of the "Party" rule. Election interference by "lawfare" and controlling the media will be the new normal.

That is why you must vote for Trump this year, so you will have a choice, and your children and grandchildren will have a choice in the future.
