Lucas Kunce on Principles & Values

 

 


Christian nationalism is about control, taking away freedom

Missouri's Senior Senator stood firm after an eye-opening speech advocating America be only about one religion: Christianity.

"In our history and in our ideals, America has been a Christian nation," Hawley said during his interview with First Alert 4. "I think most Americans believe in God and think religion is important and we should defend those folks."

"Some will say now that I am calling America a Christian nation. So I am," Hawley shared. "And some will say that I am advocating Christian nationalism. And so I do."

Lucas Kunce called [Hawley's] speech and Christian nationalism overall about control and said it takes away an individual's freedom. "It is an agenda of controlling everyday people in the doctor's office, in the workplace, in their bedroom and for a freedom-loving state like Missouri, that's bad," Kunce said.

Never forget the community you signed up to serve

I deployed to Iraq on my first of three tours of duty in the War on Terror, before later being stationed at the Pentagon. During those 13 years of active duty I learned firsthand what service and sacrifice for your country really means, the same things I had heard about down at the Apache Flats Marine Corps League: Doing the right thing when you're thousands of miles from home, believing in a mission that's bigger than yourself, and never forgetting the community you signed up to serve.

2022: Won four counties in Senate primary

A total of 29,532 residents voted Tuesday from among 125,775 registered voters. Democrats sent 15,752 voters to the polls; Republicans had 13,620. While Attorney General Eric Schmitt, a Republican, and Anheuser-Busch beer heiress Trudy Busch Valentine, a Democrat, won their respective U.S. Senate primary races, Boone County voters favored two other candidates to replace the retiring Roy Blunt.

Boone County Republicans gave a narrow nod to Vicky Hartzler, who represented the 4th Congressional District before making her Senate bid. Hartzler received 5,693 votes, (42%) in the county, compared to Schmitt's 5,425 (40%). Only one in 10 Boone County GOP voters supported former Gov. Eric Greitens, who finished third statewide.

Boone County Democrats gave Lucas Kunce more than half their support, with 8,167 votes (53%) compared to Busch Valentine's 4,727 (31%). The county was one of four in the state to support Kunce with more than half of its vote share.
