Im no Donald Trump fan but Kamala Harris offers me absolutely nothing

Vote.Don’t vote.

I don’t care.Just stop telling me that Vice President Kamala Harris is going to save democracy.Do I wish Republicans had nominated a more coherent, principled, competent candidate for the presidency? Of course.

But if anyone is under the impression Democrats tapped such a person, I have news.Spend some time trying to decipher Harris’ swirling, platitude-ridden, incoherent rhetoric, and you will only be further convinced that we live in an idiocracy.Sure, there are many reasons why a movement conservative might feel uncomfortable voting for former President Donald Trump.

I get it.I’m not a fan.But there are plenty of completely rational reasons to vote for him, as well.

First and foremost, the existence of the contemporary Democratic Party.Liz Cheney, and other Never Trumpers, tell me that the former president poses a uniquely dangerous threat to the Constitution, and thus, I must set aside any policy disagreements with Democrats and put country over politics.No doubt, this kind of self-glorification feels great, but it doesn’t really comport with reality.For one thing, most of the left’s scariest warnings about Trump are fiction.I don’t believe The Atlantic when it tells me that Trump is a would-be Hitler.

I’m sorry, I don’t believe he’s going to throw all his political enemies in concentration camps.Save the story for the next Mueller investigation.Considering recent history, in fact, it’s clear to me that the left is far more adept and willing to weaponize the state to punish its enemies.And I’m not just talking about the unprecedented lawfare launched at Trump.

I’m talking about debarring lawyers.I’m talking about raiding the homes of pro-life activists.

I’m talking about the spying on Catholic churches and the Justice Department chilling speech by smearing parents who stood up to authoritarian school boards as terrorists.Moreover, even if Trump acted on his worst instincts, the damage would likely be confined...
