Yes, you’ve made abandoning our democratic allies a priority. I’m sure Putin is pleased — and that your father and uncle would not be.
Earlier today, from the cliffs of Normandy, President Biden invoked the memory and sacrifice of American soldiers in World War II. But then he went on to suggest that those dead soldiers would now want us to take the fight to Russia:
“Does anyone doubt that they would want America to stand up against Putin’s aggression here in Europe today?”
The answer is yes. I do.
As Jeffrey Sachs pointed out in his recent interview with Tucker, the United States and NATO have engaged in “30 years of provocation, where we could not take peace for an answer.”
The situation in Ukraine today is not the same as World War II.
A President of the United States cannot blithely engage in a historical saber-rattling with a nuclear power. It endangers the world, damages our moral and intellectual standing, and dishonors the sacrifice of our soldiers. Peace goes arm in arm with the truth.
I am the only candidate in this race who makes that a priority.

You’re widely despised because your anti-vax profiteering is dangerous to human life, especially children. You bear a large share of blame for this measles outbreak. You don’t belong in any public office.
Although I grew up around the White House, I'm definitely not a career politician.
I'm the most feared and hated candidate among the elites in Washington, D.C. because I'm not bought and I'm not buyable by corporate interests or by the big lobbyists.
I get it. You're feeling disenfranchised, disillusioned, disenchanted with the whole political process. The folks in power have gotten your generation nowhere. They've crippled you with debt. They’ve lied to you.
Enough is enough. That’s why I’m running for president. And I look forward to earning your vote. Put me under a microscope. Hold me to account. I'm applying for a job, and you're the recruiters. I can’t wait to see you on the campaign trail.

Every American should know that Trump sent all his children to New York City private schools that *absolutely require every vaccination* for admission. He just doesn't care if your kids get sick or die.
Trump said in Richmond, that he will take all federal funds away from public schools that require vaccines. Like most states, Virginia requires MMR vaccine, chickenpox vaccine, polio, etc. So Trump would take millions in federal funds away from all Virginia public schools.

Not going to waste much time here until you get over 1%. But Russia obviously still needs to be deterred and NATO is how we and our European partners do that, duh.
The original purpose of NATO was to counter USSR aggression & later to avoid nuclear war with the Soviets. Yet NATO expanded the most *after* the fall of the USSR. George Kennan, the lead architect of our deterrence strategy, said NATO expansionism was “the most fateful error of American policy in the entire post Cold War era.” And now NATO’s behavior is bringing us *closer* to nuclear war with post-Soviet Russia. Time to think independently again with fresh eyes.
