Once a crook and liar always a crook and liar. The Trumbull County engineer candidate ran as a Republican as the only way he could win as when he ran as a Democrat he lost!

In what alternative reality does a vile, convicted criminal and sexual abuser, who led an insurrection on our Capitol, stole and kept our top secret documents and who's incompetence led to a million COVID deaths, become the candidate of choice for more than half of our country's voters? How sad and embarrassing! Wasn't one chaotic, unproductive presidential term enough? Have our nation's moral values, decency, rule of law, sense of right and wrong and truth, and actual "love of country" slipped this disgustingly low? We may NEVER recover!

I have a suggestion for small family farmers. Prepare your resumes. The last time Trump went hog wild on tariffs it was met with retaliatory tariffs. These retaliatory tariffs were carefully selected, by foreign leaders, to put maximum hurt on small American business. In Trump's first term this caused small farm crop selling prices to tank. Also, the large farm down the road, the millionaire Trump lover, will be the guy buying your equipment and property at the sheriff's sale.

The young, lower educated, male voters who helped Trump to victory are going to find a harsh reality awaits them. There will be no more excuses. Trump is doing mass deportations, on day one, for illegals who took your jobs. He is attaching tariffs to products to bring your jobs back. He's lowering interest rates so your mortgages will be cheaper. So, set your alarm clocks early every morning, plan to work long days and let's go. No more excuses.

To those so-called celebrities who threaten to leave the US because Donald Trump was overwhelmingly elected as President: Who cares? Take your ill-gotten gains, your obscenity-laced comments, and your haughty attitudes and leave. Go bounce a ball or try to sing a tune elsewhere. The US will keep the doctors, teachers, business leaders, the everyday workers who truly earn a paycheck. A word of caution to those who say they will leave: Do other countries want you?

Trump is smart enough to select cabinet members who have proven track records in the business world tied to their cabinet positions. I doubt if he'd fill the positions with incompetent gays and trans. Pete Buttigieg, our current Secretary of Transportation. comes to mind. His only expertise with transportation is riding on a DC subway.

Trumbull County citizens expect the county to be run efficiently and timely. Lessons learned from current dysfunction is simple. Responsibility for attention to detail. Review the meeting agenda well in advance, do a ton of research, be prepared to address critical time sensitive business that cannot be tabled. Present a viable workable alternative solution if you can't agree with the proposed. Run the county! Don't take for granted you will be reelected. We don't have time for a learning curve.
