If the Democrats are ever going to gain control again, they’ll have to rein in all of the radical socialists in their party.

First of all, they need a good candidate to run for the office of president. They don’t need Kirsten Gillibrand, Bernie Sanders, Joe Biden, Beto O’Rourke or Kamala Harris. Some of them are in need of psychiatric evaluations.

How about Ilhan Omar and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez? Cortez is telling our children that the world will end in 10 to 12 years unless we get rid of oil, gas and fossil fuels. According to her, we should turn to wind and solar power. You’d have to cover the whole states of California and Texas, and still wouldn’t have enough to power our country. According to her, we should all become vegans, because cows emit methane gas into our atmosphere. Mayor Bill De Blasio from New York City declared “meatless Monday” in the city schools. What a jerk.

Ever since Omar and Cortez came onto the scene, we don’t hear too much from Charles Schumer and Nancy Pelosi. When our kids go to school, we expect our teachers to teach them math, history, science and basic skills, to help them as they mature. Politics should not be taught in our schools. Our young people in college are being brainwashed by liberal professors. Our kids are being told that socialism is a good thing. Look at Cuba, Venezuela and other socialist countries; it just doesn’t work. Under socialism, the government controls everything you do or say. Believe me, socialism is not what you want. Gillibrand wants open borders, and to give illegals driver’s licenses and extend Social Security and Medicare to them. What a wacko she is.

The Dems are using the all-green movement and global warming to brainwash our children. If you look back a hundred years or so, you’ll see that we’ve had cooling and warming periods since the beginning of time. We’ve always had hurricanes, tornados, cyclones, floods and forest fires. It’s called Mother Nature.

Nancy Pelosi wants to lower the voting age to 16. What a nut she is. At 16, all you think about is school, sports and dating. The human brain doesn’t even mature until you’re at least 21 years old. If you can’t buy cigarettes, alcohol, or even go into the armed services, why in the world should you be able to vote at 16?

The Dems want open borders, no walls and say that the crisis at the border is manufactured by Donald Trump. The only thing that was manufactured was the vendetta against our president. Maybe you don’t like Donald Trump as our leader, but he’s done more for our country than the last administration.

Ever since Hillary Clinton lost her bid for president, the Dems have pushed for one investigation after another. Folks, it’s a smoke screen, the ones that should be investigated are the Clintons, Obama and high officials in the Department of Justice and the FBI for the things they did to undermine and impeach our president.

The Dems produced and paid for fake documents and gave them to the courts to start the investigations into the Trump administration. After two and a half years and $25 million of taxpayer money, Mueller’s probe found nothing, no collusion period. As an ex-Democrat, you all have my sympathy, and don’t worry kids. The world is not coming to an end in 10 or 12 years, like the Dems want you to believe.

I say “Build the Wall” and protect our people and our borders. Without borders, there is no country.

God Bless our President and our Country.
