Democrats will ruin democracy. I am not delusional.

Well, I am one of the “other Republicans” and I emphatically believe that a Democrat victory will mean the end of America as we know it.

No question — it is a truism.

The socialist Democrat plan underway for decades is to assume total and eternal control of the government and our citizenry and they are on the brink of doing so. Their election in November will put us over the brink.

Our cherished republic will become a second world country – somewhere between China, Russia, Iran and the Third World countries.

Trump is delusional.Republicans should be worried about what happens if he beats Harris.

The Democrat Party has been ruthless and evil in pursuit of its vision, and it will be the same in governing if elected. We need to end our silence and voice our convictions in reasonable forums to convince others that a November Democrat victory will have consequences that we never could have dreamed of for our country.
