Why Would You Ever Vote for Trump?

By Alice Dalla Palu, Cape May

There are just fewer than 76,000 registered voters in Cape May County. Of those, 32,786 are registered Republicans and 18,441 are registered Democrats. So there remain 24,462 independents, which means if the last two groups come together that represents almost 43,000 votes for Democrats, easily overwhelming Republicans in Cape May County.

If you are of sound mind, you would never vote for a grifter like DJ Trump. In addition to being a sexual predator, racial baiting antagonist and other nefarious attributes, he is chaotic and losing his mental abilities, as evidenced in his social media posts and last debate performance.

He had his time in office and proved destructive in his policies and ways he conducted presidential business. All world leaders dread his return as it means he will abort the relationships established through our alliances, except of course the tyrants in Russia, China, Hungary and North Korea, etc., who are like him.

Read Project 2025 to get a glimpse of what Trump intends to do once he returns to office:
Deport all immigrants – who is going to harvest crops including your fruits and vegetables?
Eliminate reproductive health care for all women and girls – no exceptions.
Expand presidential power and even eliminate presidential elections, as he will refuse to leave office.
Fire federal civil service employees and hire sycophants who are loyal only to him.
Decimate or curtail the U.S. Constitution.

These are just a few of the many items listed in the 2025 document which was actually written by his former White House staff. So much for the “I don’t know anything about it” statement, but then, it’s just another lie like the 31,000 he told while in office and 33 he told in the debate. So why do people believe him?

The mere thought of the Donald back in office strikes a severe blow to the psyche and country. He is a person of grievance, sexism, racism and hatred of anyone not of European descent. Having him on daily news feeds is exhausting, as he is constantly griping and lying about anything and everything. The media doesn’t have time to fact-check him before another crazy idea and statement comes out of his deranged brain. The scariest thought of all is that if he is elected and goes down the drain of dementia or death – as he is very old – JD Vance would become the president – that is unconscionable.

Voltaire said it best, “Anyone who has the power to make you believe absurdities has the power to make you commit injustices.” Grasp your power and vote for new and great ideas to move our country forward. Vote for Democrats all down the ballot.
