I am a veteran and remember when veterans who served were respected and not deemed “losers” by a president who dodged the draft. I remember when the government worked for the people and did not pardon violent January 6 criminals. I cannot recall when our government unleashed thugs selectively into states that did not support the Republican president. I remember when Republicans who lost elections were gracious losers. I remember being a Republican Party voter (Goldwater, Nixon twice, Reagan) when the Republicans were fiscally responsible and worked on a bipartisan basis for the benefits of constituents and our country. That is not the Republican Party today. That is why I will support every Democratic Party candidate with money and my vote.
