For informed citizens, it is impossible to escape the Left's latest assault on Republicans. They are targeting J.D. Vance, but by implication, anybody who agrees with GOP policies is included. What sparkling verbiage is the Left, in unison, employing to describe Donald Trump's VP pick? You guessed it, weird.

Happily, the term weird when applied to their opponents, is failing them. If J.D. Vance is weird, if Donald Trump is weird, and if Republicans, in general, are weird, I, too, want to be weird! 

If I'm to be judged weird for being opposed to having nine to 10 million illegal aliens flood our northern and southern borders, be shipped all over the U.S. so that Democrats can have more favorable election results, strain the budgets of states and municipalities, overwhelm our schools, increase the burden on law enforcement, swamp our healthcare system, and unmercifully drain tax revenues that should be allocated for U.S. citizens, then fire away, call me what you want. 

Gradations of Weirdness

How weird is it to support the American family, like Vance, and to believe that a two-parent household is vastly superior in terms of raising healthy, happy children compared to a one-parent household? And to hold fathers and mothers in the highest of esteem and not refer to mothers as birthing persons? 

Is it weird to believe that every child deserves to have a decent education where reading, writing, history, math, and science are taught, and the focus is on becoming academically sound, not on becoming a good little socialist indoctrinated by school systems, principals, teachers, and aids? 

Such Leftists proceed as if it is their sacred right to confuse children, induce them to hate America, make them unsure of their gender, expose them to drag queens and have them return home no further ahead academically than they were when they entered school that morning.

Is it weird to favor preserving women's sports for women? The pummeling in the Olympics, particularly in women's boxing, is a tragedy in the making. Yet, we must presume that the Left-leaning half of the world and half of the U.S. have no problem with what's occurring. Young women who have trained their whole lives, not just in the ring, but in many other sports, are subject to serious injuries, sometimes brain damage, paralysis, or ‘merely’ concussions, none of which should happen at all. 

An Unweird White House

Is it weird to desire an Administration with leaders who can halt and even reverse inflation, stop over-printing money, steer the economy back towards reasonable prices for everyone, and restore sanity to our economic and financial systems? 

When it comes to weird, did you notice over the last four years the constant parade of questionable individuals that the Biden administration either placed in or nominated for key positions? From the U.S. Navy to the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps, to the Office of Management and Budget, to the attempted mistress of Information, the potpourri of Biden officials and would-be officials whose feet are firmly planted in mid-air is astounding. 

Biden and Harris have been the gold standard in selecting weirdos for high-level government positions. Given the chance, Harris and Walz will top that. How weird is it to have the most radical, liberal, socialist-oriented ticket in U.S. history and think that without massive Democrat election fraud, they have a chance?

How weird is Harris's response to fundamental questions that someone running for POTUS ought to be able to answer without extensive gobbledygook? As for Tim Walz, how sound is it for the Minnesota governor to initiate DEI policies as his first order of business upon being elected? And then seeking to offer driver's licenses to the multi-thousands of illegal immigrants because somehow that's going to improve safety? How many of these drivers are uninsured or under-insured?

Flimsy and Less

Dozen other topics that the Left champions are based on flimsy theories and unproven approaches and, in many cases, are flat-out wrong based on common sense.  

Let's all be weird because Democrats think that somehow this label is going to have any resonance with voters. It will not.
