I am not a reporter; I am a Trump supporter but not a Trump
worshiper. When Donald Trump is interviewed he is either asked questions like:
do you know you are responsible for millions of deaths because you told people
to drink bleach? Or how do you answer your critics who refuse to admit you are
right about everything all the time?
I support Donald Trump because I believe he has supported
our liberty. When the first ceases to be true the 2nd will as well.
Where I stand right now my support hasn’t been withdrawn but my enthusiasm has
waned. There are questions Pres. Trump needs to answer and it’s better to do it
now than closer to the election so if I were a reporter these are the questions
I would ask:
1)
The declaration of Independence declares We
hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they
are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these
are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That, to secure these rights,
governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the
consent of the governed. So
if the primary duty of government is to defend the inalienable rights of men
how does your Corona virus achieve that goal?
2)
Dr.
Fauci’s position on the Corona virus went from “nothing to worry about” to “we
need to completely dismantle western civilization in order to stop it” given
these inconsistencies, what made you say this is the guy I need to be the
driving force behind our response?
3)
While
federalism allows for the individual states to determine their course in
matters nor relegated specifically to the Federal government by the
constitution the 14th amendment forbids those states from violating the rights
of the citizens of their states. You have declared in no uncertain terms your
belief that the shutting down of churches is a violation of the constitution,
are governors violating other rights and will the Federal government intervene
further on the behalf of those citizens? If so how?
4)
There
is growing evidence that the lockdown/shutdown policies have been ineffective
vs the virus and extremely harmful to every other aspect of society, yet your
administration still touts slow phased reopening, would you openly support
states reversing course and ending all restrictions without the phases if they
choose?
5)
Rugged
individualism, personal liberty and individual responsibility are bulwarks of
American society yet one could argue that these have been lacking from
consideration as the overall response to Covid 19 has been government centered,
since new viruses crop up every few years, would you handle, if still in
office, the next pandemic the same way or would you choose to fall back on
those original principles and give the citizen power to choose what is best for
his own health and safey?
