In response to a recent letter submitted “Why hasn’t Harris already changed things?” it’s because she is the vice president not the president. And they can’t do it alone. Things have to pass through Congress and as we all know, they don’t always agree.

To Trump supporters – Why? Why do you support someone who is constantly calling people names? Why do you support a pathological liar? Why do you support a convicted felon? Why do you support someone who told someone of color to “go back to the country they are from?”
Why do you support someone who doesn’t play by the rules? How can we tell the younger generation that this is OK behavior?

It’s OK if you are a Republican but that doesn’t mean you have to support the person running for office. There’s a reason so many Republicans are voting for Kamala Harris. I am secretly hoping that more Republicans will do the same. I sincerely hope you don’t vote for Trump.

As for the political ads, I don’t think we can believe most of them. It’s obvious that you don’t care for the person running against you, so why are you wasting money on negative advertising? In the age of technology, it’s easy to splice together anything you want to show your opponent in a negative way. How about letting us know what you are going to do to fix things, not what the other person has or hasn’t done.

As for fact checking, do your research. In my opinion, if you don’t vote, you shouldn’t whine or complain about the results.
