With only two weeks to go before the November elections, here are three reasons that the Detroit area should repudiate the Biden agenda and rally to Trump’s re-elect.
Illegal migrant crime in so-called “sanctuary” Detroit, Michigan
The politically-correct “sanctuary” movement doesn’t provide any actual sanctuary for the legal citizens of Detroit and other Michigan jurisdictions that allow known dangerous illegal migrants to hide in plain sight. In fact, Michigan has the second highest rate of arrests of immigrants by ICE agents in the country, highlighting the need to secure the border and ensure that people coming into this country do so, legally.
Problems like this highlights the importance of re-electing President Donald Trump who understands the importance of securing the border and enforcing the law. Meanwhile, Joe Biden and the radical-left that now controls the Democrat Party promises to give citizenship to over 11 million illegals and to provide them with healthcare. Biden applauds sanctuary cities and local leaders who refuse to work with federal immigration officials. President Trump wants to end sanctuary cities and give law enforcement the resources they need to enforce the law and protect the borders.
President Trump saved Big Ten football
President Trump, almost single-handedly, saved the Big Ten football season. Trump used the bully pulpit of public pressure, plus private consultations that connected White House staff as well as relevant federal health authorities with Big Ten officials. These efforts convinced the Big Ten to reverse course and re-schedule the 2020 season. As the SEC and other conferences have already shown, sports can be operated with minimal virus risks and should commence nationwide. Young athletes are the very definition of people overwhelmingly not vulnerable to dire consequences from the China Virus. As such, no college conference bureaucrats or politicians should stand in the way of young athletes and parents who make the informed decision to manage risks effectively and engage in sports. The players, staff, and millions of fans of the Spartans and the Wolverines will enjoy college football next weekend, thanks to President Trump. In addition, the many ancillary businesses will also benefit, such as bars and restaurants on gamedays.
Michigan will not retreat backward to economic globalism
Joe Biden has spent nearly a half century in the Washington swamp, and he’s been a true Delaware senator, representing the interests of giant multinational corporations and the prerogatives of foreign governments, to the detriment of American workers, especially heartland industrial workers in places like Michigan. In fact, Biden was a foremost proponent of the disastrous NAFTA agreement in 1994. From the ratification of NAFTA until President Trump’s election, Michigan lost a staggering 210,800 manufacturing jobs. Thankfully, President Trump renegotiated that terrible trade deal and replaced it with the USMCA pact which prioritizes American workers. Joe Biden was also the best friend the tyrants of Beijing could ever ask for in Washington.
As senator and as vice-president, he aggressively pushed China’s inclusion into the World Trade Organization and enabled the Chinese Communist Party’s systematic abuse of American workers through trade practices that were predatory, not reciprocal, and even outright criminal. According to a study from the Economic Policy Institute, the state of Michigan lost 92,400 jobs due to the disastrous trade structures with China that Biden facilitated. While the Chinese Communist Party plundered American technology and destroyed American manufacturing jobs, Joe Biden had the gall to praise China, saying in 2011 that “a rising China is a positive, positive development, not only for China, but for America.”
As then-Vice President Biden uttered that Pollyanna nonsense to his Davos-credentialed CEO fanboys, America’s industrial heartland endured devastation. Biden’s own family prospered though, as his wayward son Hunter received millions of dollars from the two most dangerous adversaries of the United States: China and Russia. The recent bombshell Senate Homeland Security Committee report detailed that Hunter collected massive sums from shady operators connected to Putin and the Chinese Communist Party. The Senate committee also provided new evidence that Joe Biden knew about it all as vice-president, and he did nothing to stop Hunter. The New York Post bombshell reports go even further, providing evidence that Hunter pledged portions of the ill-gotten proceeds to the “big guy,” whom Fox News sources confirm is Joe Biden himself.
Just recently, Joe Biden promised to remove the tariffs that President Trump imposed on Chinese goods, without requiring any accommodation on the part of Beijing. Biden in the White House would send America back to globalism, and back to a position of economic supplication to China. Clearly, Joe Biden prioritizes places like Beijing over places like Battle Creek.
