On Principles & Values:
Politicians don't solve problems; they create problems
Republicans, Democrats and Independents usually disagree on issues but they all do agree our country's headed in the wrong direction. That's the result of broken politics.
Politicians don't solve problems--they create problems. To stop inflation we need leaders with common sense who'll tell politicians, "No more. Enough. Stop."

On Abortion:
I believe life begins at conception, but allow exceptions
I believe life begins at conception. I'm pro-life.
I would allow exceptions in cases of rape, incest, and when a mother's life is in danger.

On Budget & Economy:
COVID-related spending by Congress caused inflation
After Covid stuck politicians spent trillions, money they didn't have. So they borrowed (printed money would be a better word) to pay for their skyrocketing spending. But printing trillions came with a price--it made a dollar worth less.
That caused inflation. Prices shot up on everything from hamburgers to gasoline and working families, and family businesses, struggled.

On Crime:
Support the police, arrest criminals, send them to jail
Every day you read stories about murders, robberies, drug crimes. Our first line of defense to stop crime is police officers.
We have to support the police, arrest criminals, and after a quick, fair trial send threatening criminals to jail.

On Education:
Schools should educate not indoctrinate students
First, children need to be safe in our schools. I support school resource officers. Beyond that schools should educate not indoctrinate students.
Using schools to push agendas like political correctness or to promote political ideologies doesn't improve education.

On Energy & Oil:
Believe your own eyes at gas pump; economy not recovering
Gas Prices: Newsmax just reported, "The national average for gas prices stood at $3.83 a gallon last Friday -- about 30 cents higher than that seen a month ago, according to motor club AAA."
At the same time, politicians are telling us the economy is recovering.
Who can you believe? Politicians? Or your own eyes at the gas pump?
