Utah politics are messed up. We have problems because the state is overwhelmingly conservative, so democrats have to get creative to seize power. What this means in practice is either the democrats are running without party affiliation or running dishonestly as a “republican”. These politicians then send out their code language that democrats in the state pick up on and then just have to dupe enough conservatives to win. It really goes to show that if they didn’t have double standards they wouldn’t have any standards at all.

Some of the common tropes they play on are, “don’t you want to take care of homeless people”. This then leads to a large food bank and government housing, however, suddenly the homeless problem skyrockets along with crime. Or they campaign that they want to create “affordable” housing for your poor children, but then housing, crime, traffic and democrat voters skyrocket. They want to be compassionate to “displaced” foreigners, who then work under fake IDs and steal all our social benefits like welfare, food stamps and hospitals utilizing separate fake IDs thus raising their pay above average citizens while raising the taxes on us actual citizens.

At one time, my city declared itself to be a bedroom community. It was a small college town, more or less, out of building space with mostly single family homes and we wanted to keep it that way. However, misguided voting led to “unaffiliated” mayors who were really all democrats who all pushed plans that expanded government, increased taxes, brought in homelessness and increased crime. But they were all doing it compassionately, don’t you see? What’s worse, is a lot of their boondoggle’s tax hikes keep getting pushed back so that their tax day of reckoning doesn’t hit when it would effect them politically. But all these tax burdens will hit eventually, My property taxes have already doubled in 10 years and with their reckless spending it’s likely to double again soon and then double again.

My favorite line from these clowns is, we haven’t raised taxes in 30 years! or pick whatever time scale. They say that government costs can’t keep up with how much things cost, ie inflation. It’s like, moron, taxes are a percentage, so as inflation goes up, so do taxes! You’re spending is what’s out of control.

So back in 2016, a weird single guy ran for president. He really only ran in one state and appealed to the religious majority with complete insincerity. It was shocking to me how many were like, huh, Mormon, ok and didn’t investigate any further. He openly said he was just trying to play spoiler. He ended up getting way too much of the vote here for my comfort. Now the same turd is running for Senate. I swear I read that he had switched parties in 2018 and was mulling a run for congress. Yet, that seems to have been scrubbed from the internet.

So now he’s running for Senate as an “independent”, he got married, which I’m sure is totally not just for political reasons, and the scam is on again. Instead of running against RINO Pierre Delecto like he could have back in 2018, he’s running against the one guy who probably holds to the constitution more than any other senator and you just have to ask, why? I think it’s pretty obvious.

You may as well vote for a McMuffin from McDonalds if you think this other guy is a good choice, because after a day, they’re both the same thing anyway. But with the Mcmuffin, you can flush it and it’s gone forever where you have to stare at the other turd for 6 years!

It’s insane to me that he even has a whimper of a chance.
