WHY DONALD TRUMP IS BETTER THAN KAMALA HARRIS



1-) Trump can talk about anything for hours without having a piece of paper in front of him, as he did on Joe Rogan's podcast


2-) Trump knows how to create wealth. He inherited millions of dollars, yes, but he turned them into billions. The Trump Towers in New York or Chicago are huge, beautiful buildings where hundreds of companies and businesses are based, in which thousands of people work. Kamala is a socialist, and socialists, all over the world, only know how to destroy wealth. Not only that of the upper class, but also that of the middle and working classes.


3-) Trump knows how to use his rival's mistakes. If Kamala falsely says that she worked at McDonald's, he goes to a McDonald's to fry potatoes and serve customers. If Biden says that those who vote for Trump are trash, Trump dresses as a garbage collector and gets on a truck. You can't bring Trump down. Not even a bullet piercing his ear could do it.

To the attention of the organizers of the Oscars' gala

 

Gentlemen in charge of organizing the Oscars' gala (awards of the Hollywood Film Academy):


I invite you to reflect and rectify accordingly after the unfortunate events that occurred at the gala this year 2022.


Mr. Will Smith's violent reaction to Chris Rock's joke about Will's wife, Jada Pinkett-Smith, has rightly been condemned. But I wonder why you allow hurtful jokes about a person with a traumatic condition for women like alopecia in the first place? Such a joke is also a form of violence, and you allow it.


I would also like you to reflect on whether it is positive to show how two men (Josh Brolin and Jason Momoa) are groped. Is it right to give the message that men have no right to their dignity, not to be invaded in this way? Are only women to be protected from any form of sexual abuse?


For future editions of the gala I would like you to rectify and avoid any form of uncomfortable or violent behavior in the presenters and comedians. Neither film professionals deserve to feel violent or uncomfortable, nor do viewers deserve to feel embarrassed.


Without another particular I greet you sincerely.

About the right to own firearms in the United States

I read that in the United States, children are taught in schools how to protect themselves if a man enters shooting.

In my nation, Spain, children are not taught to protect themselves from a man who is shooting. Because there are almost no weapons in the hands of the people, since the monopoly of weapons is held by the police and the army. Perhaps it is time, once and for all, to change the law in the United States so that people cannot have guns except in very justified cases.

I think that in the United States many people think: "there are two types of people, criminals and normal people, so it is okay for normal people to arm themselves to defend themselves against criminals." This is an error of principle, because there is only one type of people: people, without more. Anyone, I repeat, anyone, can become a criminal at any given time. Most of the killers who entered shooting in schools or parks or supermarkets had never shot anyone before. So the only way to reduce the number of gun deaths is simply to reduce the number of firearms in the hands of the people.
