Erick you're forgetting that Harris may well drag us into a world war, and Trump may well manage to get us backed away from it. That will affect every American. As will rampant inflation due to fiscal illiteracy and incompetence. It's true that God is in charge, but we still need to do whatever we can to right the ship.

"Rifles aimed at Liz Cheney", "shoot through the press", "shouldn't have left in 2020" - this guy is such a comically unhinged f_cktard that he's actually starting to grow on me.

I think I may be able to appreciate the insane content we will get for the next 4 years.

Typical Lib taking comments out of context. Trump was saying that Cheney would think differently about war if she had ever actually been on the front lines with a rifle and more of them pointing at her. Content without context is pretext.

I am aware of the context and still think it was a stupid thing to say. Now, if you want to split hairs and say stupid vs. retarded, I guess its up for debate.

What context do you have for each of the other two things I cited that he has said in the past day or so to dampen the level of unhinged dumbassery?

How about the Dems taking "Dictator," and "Bloodbath"?? It swings both ways, but the media only edits what they think will hurt Trump.

Everything WILL NOT be okay if Kamala wins. More small communities will be devastated with higher crime, higher housing cost, higher healthcare cost (with longer wait times), fewer jobs as tens of thousands of illegals are flown or bussed into these communities...most likely in red states as Democrats work to change them to blue. Everything WILL NOT be okay if Kamala wins and more global leaders see the continued weakness of the US and plan more bombings on our allies. This is just a couple of examples of everything NOT being okay if Kamala wins.

You appear to be overlooking one significant point. If Kamala wins, there is a high likelihood that a greater number of babies will be sacrificed to the great abortion god. I’ll continue to worry about and pray for them. As you said, God’s will.

Your commentary notes that seniors are going for Harris. Well, I can only say they are at least putting their money where their mouths are. I ran some numbers based on my and my wife's income, including our Social Security incomes.

Two things are clear: If Democrats win any of the three federal elections -- president, US Senate and US House of Reps -- the Trump tax cuts, which lowered tax rates beginning in 2018, end. Secondly, Trump's proposal to end tax on Social Security income would die. Harris hasn't even tried to steal that one.

Just for comparison's sake, based on a non-senior married filing joint return on a $80,000 taxable income (after the Standard and other deductions), couples pay about $1,900 less in income tax each year with the Trump tax cuts than they will if Harris goes back to the old rates (and Dems haven't suggested they won't). The savings is a few hundred dollars higher for seniors, since only 85 percent of Social Security is taxed. (Only!)

Seniors, however, with the added Trump plan to cut SS taxation, would get to keep far more of their money. Based again on an $80,000 income, with $50,000 coming from Social Security (as with my wife and me), the couple would get to keep about $6772 more of their money each year. So, seniors rejecting Trump are rejecting a good bit of retirement money.

And this is really a low-ball estimate of the savings. It doesn't take into account interest and investment income, and, more importantly for seniors hitting 73, the Required Minimum Distribution that must be taken from IRAs, 401Ks and other retirement investments, which often amounts to tens of thousands of additional taxed dollars.

I've never seen a Trump campaign commercial pointing out the tax savings for "younger" folks that will disappear with Harris, or the huge increase in kept income that would come to seniors with the Trump SS proposal -- an increase seniors disliking Trump must be overjoyed to forfeit year after future year.

Seems to me it would a tragic political oversight on the Trump campaign's part if it hasn't been playing these facts BIG.

I don't think, "everything will be okay."

We've had minimal contact with one of our sons since 2016 because (gasp) we voted for Trump.

Our country has become so divided and hostile (especially on one side) that there's almost no chance for reunification. How do you reason with someone who wishes the Butler shooter had had better aim? How can you reason with someoe more concerned with a woman being able to abort a baby (even up to the moment of birth) after getting pregnant after being raped by an illegal alien or as a result of sex trafficking than the fact that the inmigrant shouldn't be in the coubtry to begin with?

How do you reason with someone who chants 'From the River to the Sea" or a member of the Alphabet Mafia joining 'Queers for Pelestine' when they woul be some of the first killed if they ever visited there?

I think there is a better than average chance of violence starting late on the 5th or from the 6th forward. Why else would they start activating National Guard units in multiple states?

This country is in serious, SERIOUS trouble.

The only way 'everything will be okay' is when the skies are rolled back as a scroll and Jesus descends. That moment can't come soon enough for me. I'm ready to be called home.

I fully agree that everything will NOT be okay as one of my sons did the same thing after we voted for Trump. But he also told me to back off talking about the shots when we were to take them, because we did NOT. Five days after his second booster shot, his blood turned to worms and he died. None of the rest of us took the shots and NONE got covid. I have five other children and a wife that did NOT take them.

I don't know of any Trump supporters that would destroy a family or friend relationship because that other person is voting for Harris.

But I know of hundreds of Democrat people that have destroyed family and friend relationships because that other person voted for or is voting for Trump.

This is an example for why I am really not satisfied with people attempting to bridge the partisan gap with moral equivalence between Republicans and Democrats. They are not the same today... they are two different species and one is responsible for a lot more terrible political behavior. If we cannot be honest and call it as we see it, then we deserve the continued ponding headache from having to deal with that behavior.

Erick, I heard you say on your program that the next President can undo what former president did. If elected, how would Trump get all the millions illegally in our country out? How can he undo the harm our schools and healthcare facilities have and are enduring. I’m sure there is much more but these are the two long range things weighing on my mind.

With respect to the illegals, Trump will need the support of Congress and the left will certainly challenge everything in the courts. However, the Democrats have stepped in it by making illegal immigration the top national issue, and the majority is livid and supports sending the more recent people back to their home countries. So unlike previous when the majority was more apt to be not in favor of deportation for various reasons, today Congress has a green light to reverse the mess caused by the Democrats.

With respect to the woke rot, I think that is repairing itself for a simple reason. Private business succeeds on the productive strength of its employees. Musk started the great woke purge. The meritocracy will always win in that case because if a competitor goes woke and DEI, they will fall behind in competition and eventually fail. Boeing is the most recent large corporation to kill their DEI project. What is happening and will keep happening is that the economic harm of people from their campus brainwashing will cause parents to be more selective in the schools they send their kids to. This will then cause the schools to have to reform in order to prevent their business failure.

I don't think Trump will need to do much except encourage states to be like Florida and remove Critical Theory fake scholarship from the grade school text and curriculum.

Just watched your YT commentary.

First: yes it will be ok for everyone individually, god is ruler and there is no excuse to banish friends or family over who they support. I have an entire set of inlaws that live in Decatur who are liberal voting lefties. I still drink beer (non alcoholic for me) with them.

But I have to say something, our nation will not be ok no matter who wins.

- can you blame the trump supporters for questioning the election when you have 1600 declared illegals being allowed to vote. How many undeclared are there?

When you have 1 Chinese national voting and being counted.

When you have a majority of the states not requiring ID to vote.

There’s reason to question. No this election may not be stolen. It will be cheated.

And dems will be the primary offender in that.

So no it’s no wonder people question the integrity of voting.

And this election will not change that attitude.

Till we have a ban on mail in ballots. Till we have a universal voter ID registry. Till we have all these things in place. Confidence in the election will be suspect.

Kamala won’t have the senate and possibly not the house either.

So the only glamour the Dems will have is being the first woman president. She may be the last if she gets in. Same as what Obama did to that legacy. You will never see a black man president again.

The world won’t end if Kamala wins. Largely depends on how she wins. The world won’t end if Trump wins. Largely depends what m how he wins.

If it’s a debacle like 2020. It may be the end one side or the other will violently react to the results and we could have chaos.

And unfortunately I will say your wrong Erick on the president not having a direct impact on myself locally.

That used to be true. It’s not true any longer. The presidents office now has the power to legislate through EO.

Men playing in women’s sports directly affects my life locally.

The DOJ is controlled by the president. So expect to see political opponents locked up by the Dems if they win.

Biden hesitated a little when it came to unleashing the gov on the people. Harris won’t. Her controllers are ticked off and ready to put this nation under lock and chain for a century or more.

Right now I don’t think Trump can win. The left won’t allow it. They have something up their sleeve and I am fully prepared for it.

End point: they can’t stop you from going to church, yet, they can’t stop your own mind from being free. Yet.

They can’t keep you from being a free person. So

Enjoy what freedom you have now. That’s all I can say.

An important reminder. The ads are filled with fear lies and fear mongering. I want Trump to win but absolutely dread the drama that he thrives on! Our family voted for policy and Vance. We pray Trump will be surrounded by competent strong advisors that He Will Listen To! We make a real effort to separate politicians and our faith. We know that God is in control; we also know He allows us to suffer the consequence of our actions. America is on shaky ground in that regard. Let’s all remember to only worship God.

A number one concern my patients struggle with is anxiety over the election followed by loss of family and friends over political differences. It is rather heartbreaking and cuts both ways on the political spectrum. I never, ever bring up

politics or show my hand. I once had someone say to me that they could not understand, as smart, beautiful and kind as I am, that I could support Trump. Mind you, they had no

way of knowing my political persuasion. I just smiled and went on to the next subject.
