Reasons why I’m voting for Trump

Someone may ask me why in the world would I vote for Trump?

After four years of President Biden, let me list the reasons.

Inflation: food, gas, housing, interest rates, etc.

Immigration: more like invasion.

Immunization: destroyed careers over mandatory jabs

Weaponization: government agencies going after political opponents.

Cancelization: -conservative voices silenced by liberal media.

Cronyism: family corruption surrounding President Biden.

Transportation: EV policy mandates that portends an electrical grid disaster.

I could go on, but enough said!

He studied art at Mount Allison University where he received a Bachelor of Fine Arts in drawing and painting.
