Saying anything to get elected

3 min read

To the editor:

Kamala Harris during interviews stated "I'll put my record up against anyone's how I secured the border." "I won't change any of Joe Biden's policies." "I'll turn the page." What is she turning the page on if she's keeping Biden's policies?

She's flipped on fracking, border security and economic policies. I believe she'll say anything to get elected, and once in office will reverse her campaign promises.

I watched several of her rallies. To get Black male votes she promises $20,000 in forgivable loans and to legalize pot. Is this pandering, a bribe, unconstitutional? In Georgia, Bill Clinton summarized her border corruptness stating that Laken Riley, who was murdered by an illegal immigrant, would be alive if he had been vetted at the border and not allowed in.

She states Trump's tariff policy will cause inflation. He raised tariffs when in office and inflation was 1.2 percent. I'm now paying 22 percent more for everything. She allowed 15 million illegal immigrants, many having criminal records, into America to prowl our communities. Harris claims fewer than 10 percent are convicts. If my math is correct, 10 percent of 15 million is 1,500,000 who are criminals. Are you comfortable with that?

I find it amusing that Harris claims Trump is old, physically unfit, mentally slow, rambles and has no stamina. She counts on voters believing something she says is true because she asserts it. He does two or three rallies a day and answers every question. Yet she states Biden is the epitome of intelligence and she never saw evidence of his incompetence. I can't trust her judgment.

She states America needs between 15 million and 20 million illegal immigrants to fill 7 million vacant jobs. Seems like we have more migrants than needed. I believe most don't seek work -- just a free ride from American taxpayers.

Harris states Trump will change America -- look at the last four years, I hope so. Why is she upset with making America great? After seeing her interview on "60 Minutes" and how they deceivingly edited it to make her seem coherent in her answers, I can't trust the media. Harris can't make a point by talking in circles. Do her supporters George Soros and the tech billionaires pay their fair share?

She snubbed the Al Smith Catholic Charities Dinner. At her Oct. 16 rally, someone shouted "Jesus is Lord." She yelled, "You're at the wrong rally. You want the other guy." With Harris supporting drag queens and convicted who want sex changes, she's right.

After reading letters last weekend, I decided who to vote for. Three letters supported Trump, three Harris. Trump's supporters stated facts and figures about the economy, Harris' poor response to natural disasters and failed border policies. Harris' supporters write about COVID, an unknown office seeker and why Christians shouldn't support Trump. The question is why Catholics support Harris -- a late-term abortion advocate.

Why is she allowed to talk politics in Black churches? They should lose their tax exemption.
