Hopefully, on Nov. 6 We’ll Feel Relieved

The possibility of Donald Trump winning the Nov. 5 election is chilling. According to press reports, he promised a position to billionaire Elon Musk, who is aggressively campaigning for the Republican ticket.

Musk, owner of the ā€œXā€ platform (formerly Twitter), is spreading fake news and censoring certain posts supporting Democratic candidate Kamala Harris. And it was recently reported that he has a scheme to pay some voters to commit to the Republican ticket. In other words, he is buying votes.

Moreover, Trump promised a position to Robert Kennedy Jr. in exchange for his electoral support. Kennedy is a lunatic who denies the value of vaccines, and his presence in a prominent political position could be a disaster for our well-being.

Both Trump and Musk have expressed their visceral rejection of unions and workers’ rights, including increases in the minimum wage.

A second Trump administration would be a disaster not only politically but also economically and socially for the United States.

Trump even openly expressed that he would seek a way to govern without paying attention to the Constitution and Congress and that he would attack his political adversaries ā€œeven with the army.ā€

Trump wants to become a dictator not only for his ego but also to achieve the impunity necessary to avoid jail time.

There is no moral—or political—justification for voting for Trump.

Hopefully, on Nov. 6 we’ll feel relieved with the nightmare of a second Trump administration behind us.

Till next month.
