State of the Union and upcoming Election

I watched the State of the Union last night and was not to impressed. It went pretty much as I expected it would. But I think about the upcoming election and wonder what are the Democratic runners going to run on? I mean come on the President pretty much laid out what he has done and what he is trying to do. Maybe a very little exaggeration but pretty much the facts speak for themselves. Record employment, more tax money back in the taxpayers pocket, less regulation on businesses, less people on food stamps, manufacturing jobs starting to come back, repeal of the individual mandate, and fighting to get the border wall built.

What are the Democrats running on? The only thing I have heard so far is more taxes on the wealthy. A little bit about climate change. What else? I can’t seem to recall anything that would help the American people. Oh yeah fix health care. Do you really want the Democrats putting their hands back on that? The last time they tried to fix our health care mine and most of America’s premiums doubled if not tripled. I fear the day they regain control of all three houses. But back to the 2020 election, they now want to do away with the electoral college, why? Because they know that with the majority of states controlled by right leaning Americans, we have a bigger say on who gets elected President than the east and west coast. Just because they have more people in the major cities does not mean they control who gets into the White House nor does it mean that they get control of the senate. We will see what happens next November but I would not bet on the the Democrats winning.
