From an ex-Democrat

I have been a staunch Democrat my whole life, but things have changed. The Democrats are no longer for the middle class, but are for the rich. I am very much pro-life, which the Democrats are not. They also preach socialism and I am an American for independence.

Finally, the Democrats have worked only for their own agenda not for the nation. Trump has a negative personality but has done a lot for our nation (ex. economy, jobs, independence, life, etc.) Our nation has returned rightly to “in God we trust.” Please think of this when you vote.
