To make clear our commitment, we offer to the American people the 2024 >>>GOP Platform to Make America Great Again! It is a forward-looking Agenda >>>that begins with the following twenty promises that we will accomplish >>>very quickly when we win the White House and Republican Majorities in
the House and Senate.
SEAL THE BORDER, AND STOP THE MIGRANT INVASION
Do you mean illegal immigration, or all immigration? This is an >>important distinction.
CARRY OUT THE LARGEST DEPORTATION OPERATION IN AMERICAN HISTORY
So, you want to return to the policies of the Obama
administration? As of the time I write this, his was the admin with
the largest number of deportations.
END INFLATION, AND MAKE AMERICA AFFORDABLE AGAIN
Inflation isn't going to ever end. A temporary drop, or
deflation, can happen, but the market will rise again.
MAKE AMERICA THE DOMINANT ENERGY PRODUCER IN THE WORLD, BY FAR!
The United States is already the dominant energy producer in the >>world. By far.
STOP OUTSOURCING, AND TURN THE UNITED STATES INTO A MANUFACTURING SUPERPOWER >>This is a good one.
LARGE TAX CUTS FOR WORKERS, AND NO TAX ON TIPS!
I'd like to see an end to taxes on compensation from employment.
I don't expect it to happen as far too much is funded from it, Social >>Security, for one example, but I would like it.
But if it does, a new federal tax on something else will come
into being to cover the costs, so it will end up a wash.
DEFEND OUR CONSTITUTION, OUR BILL OF RIGHTS, AND OUR FUNDAMENTAL >>>FREEDOMS, INCLUDING FREEDOM OF SPEECH, FREEDOM OF RELIGION, AND THE
RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS
How are these being infringed?
Freedom of speech means the government cannot arrest you for
saying that thing. It doesn't mean you are free from the consequences
of saying that thing.
Unless the religion is somehow infringing on someone else's
rights, you are free to worship as you wish.
With a few exceptions, all adult citizens have the right to bear
arms.
PREVENT WORLD WAR THREE, RESTORE PEACE IN EUROPE AND IN THE MIDDLE EAST,
Europe is mostly peaceful. There are some "hot spots" of course. >>Ukraine instantly leaps to mind.
The Middle East hasn't seen peace in so long, it's unlikely we
can do anything to change it.
Would the G.O.P.like to see the U.S. send troops to every
conflict in the world, forcing peace at the end of a gun? If so, how
do you think that would truly end?
AND BUILD A GREAT IRON DOME MISSILE DEFENSE SHIELD OVER OUR ENTIRE >>>COUNTRY -- ALL MADE IN AMERICA
That is just STUPID.
END THE WEAPONIZATION OF GOVERNMENT AGAINST THE AMERICAN PEOPLE
Agreed.
STOP THE MIGRANT CRIME EPIDEMIC, DEMOLISH THE FOREIGN DRUG CARTELS,
Sadly, if the country or origin won't share any details about any >>crimes committed by immigrants, there isn't much to be done.
Many have been trying to demolish drug cartels, foreign and
domestic, for a long time. They've been crippled for a bit. But that's
all.
It appears you're claiming immigrants are smuggling all the
drugs. Some are being brought in with immigrants, legal and non, of
course. But most actually come in with standard, valid cargo
shipments. Even if all immigration were stopped, drugs would get
smuggled in. Then there are those made in the U.S.
CRUSH GANG VIOLENCE, AND LOCK UP VIOLENT OFFENDERS
Yes. I doubt many, if any, would disagree.
REBUILD OUR CITIES, INCLUDING WASHINGTON DC, MAKING THEM SAFE, CLEAN,
AND BEAUTIFUL AGAIN.
How would this be the responsibility of the federal government?
An argument could be made for D.C. but not the rest.
How would the cost be funded? You want to reduce and/or eliminate >>taxes on wages. As I mention above, I like the idea, but a large part
of federal funding will be gone.
STRENGTHEN AND MODERNIZE OUR MILITARY, MAKING IT, WITHOUT QUESTION, THE >>>STRONGEST AND MOST POWERFUL IN THE WORLD
Isn't it that now? Sure, China can give us a run for our money,
but I'm confident the U.S. would win in the end.
KEEP THE U.S. DOLLAR AS THE WORLD'S RESERVE CURRENCY
If the rest of the world continues to agree, it will be.
FIGHT FOR AND PROTECT SOCIAL SECURITY AND MEDICARE WITH NO CUTS, >>>INCLUDING NO CHANGES TO THE RETIREMENT AGE
And how would you fund it with the tax cuts you suggest above?
Social Security is funded by taxes on wages.
CANCEL THE ELECTRIC VEHICLE MANDATE AND CUT COSTLY AND BURDENSOME >>>REGULATIONS
EVs are fine. But don't think you're doing the environment any
favors by using one. You've just shifted your carbon footprint from
the gas pump to the electric generating station. Plus all the
pollution formed from mining the raw materials needed to make the
batteries and such.
CUT FEDERAL FUNDING FOR ANY SCHOOL PUSHING CRITICAL RACE THEORY, RADICAL >>>GENDER IDEOLOGY, AND OTHER INAPPROPRIATE RACIAL, SEXUAL, OR POLITICAL >>>CONTENT ON OUR CHILDREN
So only white male content?
KEEP MEN OUT OF WOMEN'S SPORTS
Yes.
DEPORT PRO-HAMAS RADICALS AND MAKE OUR COLLEGE CAMPUSES SAFE AND >>>PATRIOTIC AGAIN
But above you demand free speech be protected. Now you want
someone who is pro-Hamas deported?
Do you think only the speech you agree with should be protected?
That is how it's coming across.
SECURE OUR ELECTIONS, INCLUDING SAME DAY VOTING, VOTER IDENTIFICATION, >>>PAPER BALLOTS, AND PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP
I don't know how it's done anywhere else, but when I vote I have
to show proper government issued ID. But electronic voting is used.
I've never used an absentee ballot, so I don't actually KNOW how they
work.
UNITE OUR COUNTRY BY BRINGING IT TO NEW AND RECORD LEVELS OF SUCCESS >>>*****
When America is united, confident, and committed to our principles, it >>>will never fail.
Today and together, with Love for our Country, Faith in our People, and >>>Trust in God's Good Grace, we will Make America Great Again!
Which God? There are a number of them people claim exist. I
question the existence of any deity.
When your seamy past is replayed here you always project it upon the >respondent.
Mitty? You didn't answer as Hiram
