Left versus Right as a Political shorthand is nonsense. The true Political spectrum is Libertarian versus Authoritarian

“The so-called evangelicals who support Trump have a Jesus problem,” Bishop William Barber II told me. Jesus advocated tirelessly for the poor and warned that nations would be judged “by how we treat the hungry, the sick, the incarcerated and the immigrant,” Bishop Barber said.

Neil Gorsuch: Well, that’s sort of a question about why I wrote the book, David, I think. And the answer is, I’ve been a judge for about 18 years now. And I just have seen so many cases in which ordinary, hard-working, decent Americans, trying to do their best and intending no harm to anyone, just get caught up in a wall of rules or laws that they didn’t know existed.

Because of a certain Kamala Harris Electoral College victory this coming November I can now support Libertarian Party for President Chase Oliver
Kamala Harris’s strong takeover of the Democrat party and what I believe her certain Electoral College victory this coming November has given me the confidence to support the Libertarian Party candidate for President, Chase Oliver without risk of putting the neofascist Constitution wrecker Donald Trump in charge. I do so in the hope that once the Trump fever subsides by its total failure at the ballot box that the Libertarian ideals of strong local governance and minimal central Washington with just its original Secretary of State, Treasury, Defense (it was War but let’s not go there) and Attorney General as the counter to the left’s overly central government intrusion of twenty five Secretariats.

Given the prospect of a second term of a more emboldened Trump as President, I’m up for giving Kamala Harris the benefit of doubt.
Joe Biden’s hesitancy to give up and pass the reins to Kamala Harris reminds one that FDR never thought much of Vice President Harry Truman either. Leaving the execution of World War II to his neophyte Vice President was never considered just like Biden never thought of Kamala as anything other than window dressing to attract female and black voters. Joe’s sense that if he loses to Trump in November as he described in his recent interview with George Stephanopoulos would leave him proud to have given it his all. It is self pride that is beneath his long history in public office and one that ruins his legacy.
Harry Truman had no clue about the atomic bomb nor anything else of import when FDR died because he was never considered capable. Yet he quickly grew into the position and is now listed as one of our greatest Presidents. Today, Biden has it within his power to cap a half century political career with greatness just by letting himself be declared by his doctors as suffering from the early stages of dementia and under the 25th Amendment incapacitated and thereby allow Kamala Harris to immediately take the reins and possibly defeat Donald Trump.
It would be as historic a walk away from power as Washington’s decision to limit himself to two terms and prove that Biden making Kamala Harris his running mate was more than just window dressing. Given the prospect of a second term of a more emboldened Trump as President, I’m up for giving her the benefit of doubt. Given my Libertarian Republican perspective I’m not expecting greatness, just the salvation of our Constitution.
