A National Sales Tax?

I am hearing that Trump wants to set up a tax on daily necessities across the board. It would cost the average family about $4,000 a year. Economists say he would reignite inflation and America would go into a recession as early as the middle of next year. Trump wants to end the Affordable Care Act yet he has no plan to replace it. Where does that leave us? His 'concepts' just aren't enough. He wants to take us back to when insurance companies will deny pre-existing conditions like they did before the Act came into being. Lets get female rights back and not let Trump have any more abortion bands. The government has no right to tell women what they can do with their own bodies. Trump refused to answer the question of whether he would veto a national abortion ban. He was recently told by the Supreme Court that he has immunity from prosecution of any kind. He wants to terminate the Constitution and to weaponize the Department of Justice against his political enemies. And, if that isn't enough, he has said he will become a dictator on day one. Let us get America back to normal. Where women have rights, we all have the freedom to love who we love openly, the freedom to vote, drink clean water, and live safe from gun violence. There is only 54 more days. Please do make sure you are registered to vote and when November 5th rolls around vote for DEMOCRACY.

If you take things like that at face value, it sounds worse then it actually turns out to be. I don't take any of those things at face value, there's always two sides to each coin. If I did vote, I would vote for trump.

Yes, there is two sides to each coin. I am certainly sorry to hear that you plan to vote for Trump. I hope that not many others do the same. I really want to be able to choose who is in office next time and, if I have any other grandchildren and they are female they have the right to choose what occurs with their bodies. I can't believe any woman would vote for him just for that reason alone.

@celticeagle Roe vs Wade should never have been overturned. And, because it has been, each state has to decide hw they want to deal with abortion. At least withRoe vs Wade, people in the medical world knew where they stood on the topic because it set a national guideline on what to do.

I had heard about Trump wanting to change the Affordable Care Act. There are many people that rely on the insurance they have received from this legislation. Have a good weekend.
