OPINION:
One of the biggest lies of the 2024 presidential campaign being advanced — most notably by Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz — is that crime is down under the Biden administration. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Soft-on-crime Democratic district attorneys in blue states are refusing to prosecute even violent crimes. Coupled with President Biden’s open border policy rolling out the red carpet for the world’s most undesirable people, including terrorists, the U.S. has become a dumping ground for other countries to empty their prisons and mental institutions. Because of this, the Democrats have created a perfect storm for the absolute worst and most dangerous environment in American history.
In 2021, when I fully realized the monumental dereliction of duty taking place, I immediately enacted what I called the “Survive ’Til ’25” preemptive safety strategy of limiting both my wife and daughter’s exposure to this increasingly dangerous climate. As the newspapers were full of reports of lawlessness and illegal migrant crimes such as rape, sexual assault and even murder, particularly of defenseless women, I told my wife and daughter, “If anything bad is going to happen to this family, it’s going to happen to me.”
Fortunately, “Survive ’Til ’25” has so far paid off.
For the life of me, I can’t understand how even one woman would want four more years of this dangerous environment. If women want a country that is safe from both hardened foreign criminals and terrorists, the choice for president is clear: Donald Trump.
