I will be voting for Donald Trump because he states his plans, then works to implement them. Less regulation – check. Lower taxes – check. Border security – check. Reining in China – check. Under President Trump, we had record lows for unemployment, record growth in wages, and record highs in the stock markets.

Joe Biden says he doesn’t support the Green New Deal, but on his website, he calls it “a crucial framework for meeting the climate challenges we face.” He doesn’t support socialism, but he cut a deal with Bernie Sanders, advocate of “Medicare for All,” to give Sanders supporters a wider role at the Democratic National Convention. Which Joe will we get if he’s elected?

Donald Trump says what he’s going to do and tries to do it. Joe Biden says whatever he thinks his current audience wants to hear. And more than a few media outlets allow the contradictions in his positions to pass because their hatred of Trump has short-circuited their journalistic objectivity.

Worse than his contradictions, Joe Biden is too beholden to the radicals in his party. If he’s elected, we’ll never know who’s really in charge.
