This election was all about hate for one man

Hate is a powerful emotion. It's more motivational than love, family, power, or money, as I've learned these last 4 years. Although hate for President Trump comes from a number of sources, it's primarily issues on life. Or death, as abortion really is. If you claim that's not your motivation for hating Trump, you're kidding yourself. Just try suggesting the party has gone too far by not protecting the unborn and see how many Democrat friends you have left. It's the hate. For Trump.

Yes, Trump is arrogant, he tweets to skip over the stifling power of the un-elected media, he knocks heads with powerful people who distain those who don't know their place and he says mean things about people who aren't loyal. And he's a patriot at a time when Democrats are overrun by cancel culture advocates and critical race theory proponents spouting death to America. But mostly, he has surprised everyone including me by being the most pro-life President ever--and that even shocked the pro-life Christians who were accustomed to the mealy-mouthed, Bible spouting do-nothings we've elected in the past.

In January, 2017, President Trump reinstated the Mexico City policy (restricts funding for international organizations for abortions). On February 22, 2019, the Trump administration announced that it would not allow organizations that provide referrals for abortions to receive federal family-planning money, which implies a cut in funding for Planned Parenthood (the nation’s largest abortion provider) unless they perform abortions in a separate facility and not refer patients to it. And on May 2, 2019, Department Of Health And Human Services issued a new rule protecting healthcare workers who decline on the basis of conscience or religious conviction to participate in procedures such as abortion or assisted suicide. Trump was the first president ever to personally attend the pro-life March for Life in Washington, DC on January 24, 2020. Pro-life issues figured prominently in the August Republican National Convention. But the bomb thrown into the abortion fire was when the President nominated a mother with 7 children to the Supreme Court, a Catholic with traditional family values sending a loud, clear message to the nation. The mirage of "health care" for women evaporated as Democrats feared the loss of Roe v. Wade, a law which was made up in the courts and not Congress.

The Democrat party isn't the one I knew in the 70s and 80s--they weren't all about death for the unborn, and the selfishness and greed that go with it. It still claimed to care about the poor and weak. But it is all about death now. And hate--because the President exposed them for what they are.
