Are Republicans following blindly like sheep to the slaughter?

We live in a primarily Republican part of the state.

When I see the number of yard signs for Michels for governor I wonder how many people are supporting the Republican Party candidate because of his party affiliation or his personal values.

The Michels foundation has donated $20,000 to the Veritas Society. The Veritas Society website states: “Utilizing our advanced Veritas Society digital technology, otherwise known as ‘Polygonning’ we identify and capture the cell phone IDs of women that are coming and going from Planned Parenthood and similar locations.”

If he invested $20,000 as a private citizen to invade and exploit people’s privacy by capturing cell phone IDs, whose privacy will he exploit as governor?

He claims to be an outsider, and his experience in business qualifies him to lead Wisconsin’s government. There are two problems with his logic. First, the government is not a business, it’s a service and should be managed as such. Secondly, he is not a self- made billionaire; he inherited a billion dollar business.

Look at a candidate’s values and if he will protect or intrude on your personal rights.

There was a problem reporting this.

The right follows the most ignorant,unintelligent enciter of violence Our country has ever seen in soon to be brought up on treasonous charges Donnie anything and I mean anything for a $1 trump. All of this insane Q-anon garbage hes propagating and only intensifying to this day is sickening. How much of a sore Loser do you have to be to undermine our countrys security and citizens safety all because you lost an election Fairly? It's to the point where the government should be watching these people very closely because they are committing crimes they should be in prison for.

It is simple to see the vein that runs through All of the people that believe that nonsense. The are people with psychological issues that need treatment and possibly medication. Including trump. Especially trump

Are Democrats following blindly like sheep to the slaughter?

Biden has waged war on energy production and deliberately spiked gas costs.

Crime is out of control. The Left blew up the southern border.

Foreign policy is in shambles. Racial relations are scary.

Between the raid and the star-chamber House inquiry, we are supposed to forget unaffordable gas and food, dangerous U.S. cities, over 3 million people swarming the border, and the Afghanistan debacle.

Thank you for your very thoughtful and informative post. It is refreshing to realize that at least you have it so right that the rest of us can breathe easier and get a better night's rest. I never realized how bad it is until you shared your wisdom.

Michels is another Trump. Inherited fortune, not earned. He has never been in politics just like Trump. Look at where Trump is now and that is what Michels will be if he gets elected.

Thank You Mr. Wilkens. Country before Party, especially in these incredibly unstable days. It is time to stop the madness ! Pitchforks- Good Grief !
