When I voted for President last year, I didn’t vote for this.

Letter to the Editor

Dear Editor,

The Supreme Court confirmed last week that Tariffs are a tax. A tax on food, which is illegal.

Now King Don is using his illegal taxes to pay for his illegal war with Venezuela. Four aircraft carriers, 75 warplanes, and over 5,000 troops are currently NOT protecting America right now because they’re getting ready to invade South America.

Trump was so desperate to keep troops paid during the shutdown, while he was so eager to let SNAP recipients starve. Why? Because King Don needs troops to fight his war, and he needs fewer mouths to feed so he can pay for it. So he cuts off food assistance for 1 out of 8 Americans (likely 1 out of 5 Kingman residents) and jacks up prices for the rest of us.

No more.

The government doesn’t care about us, so it’s up to us to help ourselves. Kingman helping Kingman. Republicans won’t protects us, because it’s Republican policies we need protection from.

That’s why I left the Republican Party in April. I’ve joined the Mohave County Democrats. In just 2 weeks, three volunteers collected almost 1,000lbs of food for donation to the Kingman Area Food Bank.

It’s time to search for solutions instead of scapegoats. Inflation is coming. 70’s style Stagflation is coming. War with Venezuela is coming and we can only prepare for the coming storm.

Call Mohave County Democrats at (928) 753-0006 if you want to help. There’s a food drive, Toys for Tots and a dozen other ways you can get involved.

We’ll get through this. Together.

Brian Walter, Mohave County Democrats, District 1 Vice Chair

One thought on “When I voted for President last year, I didn’t vote for this.”

  1. You lose your credibility and respect by not sticking with the topic and trying to hurl clever insults like “ King Don”. Don’t bother replying to this comment. I won’t be reading it. I know all I want from reading this farcical tirade.
