On Health Care: Help people with pre-existing conditions

We must provide adequate protections for Americans against killer diseases like cancer, heart disease, lung disease, diabetes, MS, Alzheimers, etc., by research and by early detection and prevention and education, and by helping people with pre-existing conditions. To do this we must overcome health disparities, where a group such as a race, nationality or culture, income class or gender is at greater risk for these killer diseases.

On Homeland Security: Build up defense and rebuild defense industries

On Immigration: Defend our border; build the Wall

We must defend our border and build the Wall in order to stop massive illegal immigration and create security and community all along the Mexican border. Source: KROC 1340-AM/96.9 FM on 2018 Minnesota Senate race Jul 5, 2019

On Jobs: Continue and improve Trump initiatives to create jobs

We need to continue to create jobs as Donald Trump has been leading us to do. This includes smart trade, continue and improve the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and related Trump initiatives. We need to reverse the growth of the federal deficit by shifting the power and the revenue back from Washington to the states, including merging and eliminating federal departments and agencies.

On War & Peace: Eliminate Korean nuclear weapons by diplomacy or military

We must reform NATO and include Russia in G-8. We must eliminate nuclear weapons from the Korean peninsula by diplomacy or military actions. Source: KROC 1340-AM/96.9 FM on 2018 Minnesota Senate race Jul 5, 2019

On Free Trade: Tariffs are necessary to make the world play fair

Truth is, Trump is getting NATO ship-shape, as if we are really allies and not just sponging off the United States. Truth is, Trump wants to reduce the threat from Russia and make G-8 work again after Barack Obama messed it up. Minnesota will benefit greatly by restoring the need for steel. It won't happen overnight, but tariffs to make the world play fair is a key component to bringing jobs back to America, back to Minnesota, and building a far brighter future for our world.

On Civil Rights: Endorses Trump's efforts to reform elections

I endorse Republican Nominee Donald Trump's efforts to clean up elections, based on systematic rigging of the elections. I have identified clear violations, and really, an abandonment of the U.S. My platform for free and fair elections is more extensive and detailed than Donald Trump's. But this man has done more to underscore the need for election reform and free and fair elections than any recent American. Source: 2018 Minnesota Senate campaign website Oct 21, 2016

On Civil Rights: Proportional representation laws are unconstitutional

Minority blocs including radical women, questionable black politicians, immigrants who are highly critical of America and in some cases supportive of terrorist actions against us or our allies have seized control of our largest party. These proportional representation laws are unconstitutional and need to be stopped immediately! Today's Minnesota DFL excludes whites and males by placing a cap on their participation so they can't have an influence.
