Q&A

What is your top issue and how do you propose to address it?

Closed borders & safe streets. Created a new bill supporting ICE.

Do you support the unilateral foreign policy course President Trump has taken with such actions as the bombing of Iran, assaults on Venezuelan ships and the seizure of the Venezuelan president?

Yes.

The executive branch has expanded its powers in recent years on foreign policy, economic tariffs, executive orders and more. Are you satisfied with the direction these activities are moving? If so, why? If not, what needs to be done differently?

Yes, I’m all about AMERICA FIRST.

What should U.S. border policy be? If elected, what would you do to make it happen?

Closed borders always. Deport all illegal foreigners.

What should be the government’s role in assuring health care for Americans? What should be done regarding the ACA to better perform this function?

All American citizens should be given affordable healthcare options. I don’t support healthcare monopolies. American citizens shouldn’t be responsible for the healthcare of illegal foreigners.

What is your vision for a solution to conflicts involving Israel and the Palestinians? What should the United States be doing to advance this position?

I support Israel. The Hamas attacks were barbaric and cruel. Jew-hate must stop. Scripture teaches “God blesses those who bless Israel.” “The land and people of Israel are blessed.” My prayers are for the Holy Land and world peace always.
