i don’t agree with conservatives or liberals right now. i find leftists are getting a lot of hate from both sides for some reason. although i dont advocate for trump as a great leader or even a good or moral person i did think maybe he could be the lesser of 2 evils between democrats and republicans. i dont really believe in this 2 party system as i find everyone is constantly at each others throats and always arguing over the same stuff but years with no common ground. i find it quite bogus. idk if my decision was the best decision to vote for trump but i thought it may help to stop kids getting sex trafficked at the border. if what democrats are “fear mongering” to other democrats to get them to not vote for trump that part of project 2025 is he will ban porn,,, im all for that. i think maybe he could help us get out of this economic recession.

i would also like to say before liberals crucify me in the comments i’ve always wanted a female president ever since i was a little girl but harris just didn’t speak to me. i agree with republicans that if she was going to help americans she would’ve done it in her first four years. i don’t know. i also find it unsettling how unserious she is. she is always laughing. she seems to me like she is more starstruck than caring about the position of the american people. not to mention she is also not going to help the war in israel n gaza or ukraine if her version of helping is just supplying israel with weapons of mass destruction to commit genocide.

although i do have my regrets about voting for trump because it seems to me like it doesn’t matter if u vote republican or democrat. (afterall it seems biden and trump are buttbuddies) the parties just want us to fight over abortion, identity, immigration, etc all with the same arguments over and over again. it gets us no where. im pro choice to a point. i’m not going to get into the technicalities of it to not disturb from my point. i think women deserve to have the right terminate unhealthy pregnancies, and pregnancies they don’t have the money or resources to raise a kid. i also believe death is death whether it’s an ant, cow, fish, fetus, etc. so do with that what u will. i also found it absurd when trump introduced the idea of building a wall between texas and mexico but i now find it necessary. i cant speak too much on it as my family also came from immigration of latin america but as of recent years i feel immigration has really been out of control. especially places down south opening up prisons n giving these inmates american tax payer money to live more luxurious lives in the states than american citizens.

i was originally not even going to vote but after all the democrats constantly nagging me to go vote because i know who they thought i would vote for as i am someone that does consider myself a progressive and i care deeply about social issues and injustice in the world. i decided finally to listen to the nagging democrats and go vote. i still have mixed feelings about all this. i could be wrong about everything. i don’t love trump however i don’t think democrats are honest in the slightest and i think it shows. i definitely like trump a lot more than the other republican candidates tho, that is for sure.

with all this being said i would just love some feedback from like-minded and not so like-minded individuals. remember regardless of whether you are red , blue, purple, green, yellow, black or white,, we are all people. i still get paranoid about WWIII. I get paranoid our government does not have our best interest in mind and only serves the rich on both sides. im not perfect nor is anyone. so please no hate or fear mongering in comments. please let this be a place for unemotional criticism, and freedom of speech. i would love to hear what yall have to say
