Kamala Harris’s upbringing contrasts with Donald Trump’s, reflecting differing values and ideals based on the concepts of ‘strict father family’ and ‘nurturant family’ outlined by Dr. George Lakoff. Harris embodies courage and effectiveness, supported by her background in justice and equality, and has demonstrated her leadership and strength through her career as a prosecutor and U.S. Senator. Admired for her caring and progressive values, Harris advocates for women’s rights and economic development, making her a symbol of hope in challenging times. Her commitment to justice, empathy, and open dialogue distinguishes her as a compassionate yet action-oriented leader, providing a reassuring example of effective leadership in today’s uncertain political climate. She is ready to be the leader of the free world.

At a rally in Kalamazoo, WI for Kamala Harris, Michelle Obama said, “Never again, Never again.” Her speech was a scathing indictment of Donald Trump. She called Trump an existential threat, as I did in The Trump Files.
Her speech was also excellent, brilliant, and emotional. I invite you to listen and watch her talk about America’s future and why we must never again let Trump near the White House.

Donald Trump asks his cult of followers, ” Are you better off now than you were four years ago?” For them, the answer is whatever Trump wants to hear: They shout “NO!”
But the truth is that the answer is YES! Let’s see why.
My book, The Trump Files, is based on my blog posts written between mid-August 2015 and February 14, 2021. During these years, my writing aimed to bear witness (based on Robert Jay Lifton’s research) to Trump’s malignant normality by documenting what I saw and witnessed during this period. I am still writing and bearing witness to Trump’s attempt to con the American electorate to put in back in office.
He should never enter the Oval Office again.
Here is a summary of what I observed in this list of my book’s central themes or findings. These will be helpful if you’re still wondering who you’ll be able to vote for. The findings I report here reflect the damage that Trump and his allies did to the United States. Keep in mind that Donald Trump finished his presidency by instigating the violent January 6 attack on the United States Congress.
