Prefer ‘no endorsement’

I’m disappointed but not surprised in your endorsement of the Harris-Walz ticket. In my estimation no endorsement would have been appropriate. I understand your distaste for Trump, but it’s hard to argue with his governing success. As to being unfit, that does not comport with his first term. As to J6, the first report from the House intentionally overlooked many other circumstances which are coming out in the current investigation.

But, let me get to your endorsement. Kamala Harris and Tim Walz have a record that can’t be changed. It’s too late for “potential.” She is 60 and no record of success as VP or senator. She is seen only in scripted events. We can only speculate on her governing because she will not submit to scrutiny.

The world is on fire and so is the USA. We have two wars going on, we have 20 million unvetted immigrants, we have a deficit that is spiraling out of control and we have teetering on recession for 12 months. We need a strong hand to manage all of this. There is nothing in Kamala’s background that indicates she will be able to manage any of these.

A no endorsement would have been more appropriate
