Don't base vote on baseless assumptions

Recently, you endorsed Tammy Duckworth over Kathy Salvi. You stated "If you're concerned about the future of democracy, responding to climate change, expansion of social programs, you have to vote for Duckworth."

You stated, "If you're concerned about border control, limiting the Biden agenda, resisting wokeism, promoting small government you have to vote for Salvi."

As if Republicans and conservatives AREN'T concerned about the future of democracy, responding to climate change, etc.? What an absurd position.

It's one thing to endorse a candidate based on his/her experience, personal qualifications and a studied evaluation of which candidate will effectively serve in Office. It's wholly another thing to make that endorsement based on broad and largely baseless assumptions and generalizations based on party affiliation. (And no, MAGA is not a party).

Based on the Biden agenda so far, it's clear that things like lack of border control, radical thoughtless climate change initiatives, out of control and unnecessary spending, a criminal offender friendly law and order approach, along with a myriad other missteps have weakened our economy, undermined our personal safety and created a toxic Social environment.

A continuation of such policies is madness.
