Democrats in Georgia are making headway across the state. I stated on Morningtalk this morning that I’m happy about it because I love competition. I believe conservative ideas are better and ultimately if you are comparing one agenda to the other, conservatives and Republicans will win. So I’m not afraid of competition. But we have to be able to talk to each other. It’s time we started talking to each other even though we might vote differently.
This election is important and it’s in 8 weeks. The choice is to continue the work of less regulation, lower taxes and balancing our lives with our livelihoods or have much more government intervention. You know I have been a strong advocate for the Fairtax and still am and the think that keeps me up at night is the reckless spending of both parties, and it still does. But there is choice. And for more than 20 years, I’ve been advocating that we need more people from the private sector to run for office after a successful career in business rather than career politicians. I don’t think the number one profession to go into politics should be lawyers.
In Georgia, at the top of the GOP ticket you have incumbents President Trump, Sen. David Perdue and Sen. Kelly Loeffler who will support Governor Brian Kemp and will keep Georgia red as well as maintain control of the White House and the United States Senate in the hands of conservative business leaders who understand what it is like to build something up, not just burn it down. None of the three at the top of the ticket were in political office 6 years ago. They were running businesses around the world.
When we elected David Perdue to the Senate in 2014, I was one of the first people to publicly support him. He was at 1% in the polls and nobody knew who he was. When he put the coalition together to win in 2014, everyone was watching, including Donald J. Trump who was a businessman who had never been in politics before, just like Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue. President Trump vowed to drain the swamp of the “you scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours” political reality. Then Kelly Loeffler, your United States Senator answered the call from Governor Kemp to help lead with her business skills in the difficult task of finishing the term of Sen. Johnny Isakson.
In 2016, you elected President Trump to put America first and to make America great again. There is a reason you got in the fray and voted for Donald Trump. It was because you wanted a businessperson who put the best interest of the people first and not the swamp things that just want things to stay the same, for them.
Donald Trump did what he promised and delivered record growth for over 3 years and then the coronavirus hit and he led again. First, they said there wasn’t enough PPE and then the President lifted up the supply chain and delivered. Then, they said we need more hospital beds and ventilators. President Trump led the fight to task the Army Corps of Engineers to set up extra hospital beds and got the US Navy hospital ships to port to aid in extra manpower and bed space as well as producing so many ventilators that no patient in America did without and then the United States helped provide ventilators to counties in need around the world.
The left and their minions in the mainstream media don’t want you to be in charge of your own life. They want you to be told what to do by the government. We have work to do and we need to approach it with a “half-full” attitude and a smile on our face.
