On Tuesday night, the American people were once again reminded that Donald Trump is not only fighting the Democrats but an entrenched system that is using lies and lawfare to stand in the way of making America great again.
As Republicans, we are all too familiar with how our candidates are forced to debate not only their opponents but also the moderators. On Tuesday, David Muir and Linsey Davis repeatedly “fact-checked” President Trump, forcing him to correct their own misinformation.
For example, Muir challenged Trump when he said that abortion is legal until birth in some states and that former Virginia Governor Ralph Northam went further by advocating post-birth abortion. This is absolutely true; it’s on video. Beyond that, Kamala Harris’ running mate, Tim Walz, signed a bill legalizing abortion until birth in Minnesota, and Harris herself voted against a bill to protect babies who survive abortions.
In another instance, Trump brought up reports of migrants eating pets and waterfowl in Springfield, Ohio. Muir dismissed it as “debunked” based on a statement by the city manager, completely ignoring the dozens of citizens who say it is happening, not to mention video evidence of incidents in Springfield and other communities throughout the nation.
Meanwhile, neither moderator corrected Kamala Harris on her lies. She claimed that Project 2025 was Trump’s agenda — false! She falsely claimed that Trump called neo-Nazis “fine people” — false! Even Snopes said that wasn’t true. She claimed that Trump wanted to ban in-vitro fertilization — false! He wants to see it covered by insurance, not banned.
The American people have a fighter in Donald Trump. When he was shot by a would-be assassin just two months ago, he didn’t cower; he boldly stood up with his fist in the air and urged us to fight on. Trump is a champion for the American people, who are being undermined and sold out by their own government — a government led by Kamala Harris.
Harris is an empty pantsuit, an avatar for the deep state. She has been coddled by the media since the DNC handed her the nomination without a single debate or primary election. Her one media interview was heavily edited, and even then, she said absolutely nothing of substance.
If you cut through the fog and misinformation spread by the mainstream media, you can see the truth: Donald Trump loves America, he loves the American people, and he has dedicated his life to standing in the way of the leftist attempt to destroy the republican form of government we have known for nearly 250 years.
Yet, despite his love for America, or maybe because of it, Donald Trump has been relentlessly attacked by the media and the political class. On Tuesday night, the American people once again saw how one man stood against the entire media-industrial complex. They’re not after him; they’re after us, and he is only standing in the way, as he proved once again on the debate stage.
The choice for the American people this year could not be clearer. If you want to save America, then you must vote for Donald Trump.
