Why I'm voting for Donald J. Trump - He is an imperfect vessel - to say the least - but the country needs change

I wasn’t planning to write this.
Two years ago, I said I would vote for a Democrat over Donald Trump in 2024. I wrote that during a Republican primary I hoped Florida governor Ron DeSantis would win; DeSantis had stood almost alone against Covid lockdowns and vaccine mandates, forever earning my respect.
But Trump crushed DeSantis in the primary. Ever since, I have struggled over what to do in this election.
In one sense, my vote doesn’t matter. I live in New York, which Kamala Harris is sure to win. But it must at least a little, because many of you - a surprising number - have asked or urged me to repudiate my 2022 words and endorse Trump.
With three days left in this most brutal of campaigns, I am.

It is the Democratic Party that stands against free speech; that forced mRNA vaccines on tens of millions of healthy adults; that opened America’s southern border until public outcry forced it closed; that supports decriminalization of drugs and “decarceration” of violent criminals; that presides over one giveaway after another to its favored interest groups; and that is willing to risk the American economy over its fears of climate change - it has, with little notice, pushed through regulations that will make gasoline-powered vehicles all but unaffordable within a decade.
What exactly does Kamala Harris stand for, if not more of the same?

Ditto Laz. I have proof that criminals vote for democrats. Took many years to connect the dots but I do have proof of one known criminal that votes democrat and continues with criminal activities.
