Trump. Okay, listen, Trump is on the trajectory to lose, and how could he not be on the trajectory to lose? He’s antithetical to the progression of America as a whole. He’s petty, non concerned with the actual dynamics of democracy. Cares less about the Constitution. Truly doesn’t care about your rights only when he can utilize it as red meat to excite a particular base. He’s friendly to racist. He brings out the worst in the nation. He’s a divider, not a uniter. He doesn’t build coalitions. He tries to destroy them. So he is on a losing trajectory. However you have Kamala Harris. Is it not interesting that VP, Kamala Harris, now president, presidential contender, has been able to forge not only a respectable campaign against him, but a very united one that brings together individuals, not only from the Democratic side, both progressives, liberals, et cetera, but also on the conservative side. How many conservatives have come out and said they are supporting Kamala Harris not because they agree with all of her policies, but they disagree with so many of Trump’s? Let’s talk about policies that are not necessarily part of the statute or a bill, the policy of how you govern your personal life, the policy of what you actually believe in inside of your heart. What about the policy of doing right because it is the right thing to do? What about the policy of democracy itself? I don’t think anyone at this point believes that Donald Trump somehow loves democracy or loves the Constitution, or even loves America. Hell, it’s a debate if he even loves his wife. So the decision, unfortunately comes down to this. The policies are, what they are. We may agree or disagree, but if we agree or disagree in good faith, we live to compete another day. Democracy requires no finality. You see, as long as you keep democracy alive, you always have an opportunity to put your agenda back on the platform. Because we’re not really voting for personalities, are we? Or at least, we shouldn’t be. We are voting for policies because policies create room for us to progress as a nation when we devolve to only selecting our leaders based on their personality and not based on the policy or at least understanding the core principle of voting is democracy, then we have failed the very nature, the very DNA of America. So where are we now? The choice is clear. You.
The final argument against Trump
By Straight Arrow News
Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump are in a tight race as Election Day approaches, with voters divided on which candidate to support. A recent survey shows that while more Americans said Trump would protect the U.S. from foreign threats, most believed that Harris would do a better job of protecting democracy and rebuilding the middle class.
Watch the video above as Straight Arrow News contributor Dr. Rashad Richey argues that Trump undermines American democracy and is driven solely by self-interest, and warns against supporting him in the upcoming election.

You see, as long as you keep democracy alive, you always have an opportunity to put your agenda back on the platform. Because we’re not really voting for personalities, are we? Or at least, we shouldn’t be. We are voting for policies, because policies create room for us to progress as a nation. When we devolve to only selecting our leaders based on their personality and not based on the policy, or at least understanding the core principle of voting is democracy, then we have failed the very nature, the very DNA of America. So where are we now? The choice is clear.
