I served 27 years in the USN retiring as a Chief Electrician's Mate (SW) nuclear field, NEC 3384. I rarely vote Democrat. I have always been registered as an independent. I also went to a university and later in my naval career often had more education than the officers I was serving under.
One thing I learned while in college was that the Left--today the Democrat party--is completely insane, fucked up, and stupid beyond reason. I saw it in their inane protests, in their angry, childish, behavior, and in classes where they were present. You could present solid, 100% factual, information that contradicted their beliefs and they'd tell you to your face you were not only wrong, but a choice of profane insults as well. They acted and thought like petulant children.
Trump is far from a great candidate for president, but the alternative in Harris, a completely insane, fucked up, stupid beyond reason Leftist made the choice easy, and she sure as hell wasn't going to be it.
It is YOU that is ill-informed. Voting for the Left is to vote yourself into disastrous slavery. The Left will make you, by force, if necessary, a cog in the government machine. They want to reduce you to a dependent child, just like they are. What the Left truly hates about Trump and Musk is that they are forcing them to grow up and act like adults.
