Candidate Fact Sheet: Trump v Harris Side-by-side Comparison

Trump and Republicans Strength v. Biden and Democrats Weakness

Trump and Republicans Strength:
  • Ended Wars and started no new wars, a first for Modern Presidents.
  • Stood Up to China, Iran & Other Adversaries via trade deals and sanctions and cut off cash flow to Iran.
  • Maintained peace through strength.
  • Secured the border and will designate cartels as terrorists.
Biden and Democrats Weakness:
  • Led the disastrous Afghanistan pull-out which destabilized the globe.
  • Lifted sanctions on Iran, gave billions in US taxpayer dollars which financed Oct. 7 causing war in Gaza.
  • Weak and feeble foreign policy leading to violence across the globe.
  • Opened US border to tens of millions of illegal immigrants increasing the flow of illegal drugs, guns, human trafficking, and criminal infiltration.
Quote from the Executive Summary:

"Since January 2021, millions of illegal aliens have taken advantage of President Joe Biden and “border czar” Vice President Kamala Harris’s open-borders policies to enter the United States. In just over three-and-a-half years, the Biden-Harris Administration has welcomed into the country 7.6 million illegal aliens, including at least 1.9 million known illegal alien “gotaways.”1 Among those largely unvetted aliens are at least 382 illegal aliens on the U.S. government’s terrorist watchlist who have been encountered by Border Patrol along the southwest border since January 2021, with 100 watchlisted alien encounters so far in fiscal year 2024.2"

Trump and Republicans Success v. Democrats Failure

Trump and Republicans Success:
  • Oversaw the greatest economy in history, including record low interest rates, reasonable prices, no inflation, and low unemployment.
  • Increased middle-class incomes nearly $6,000 and low-income blue-collar workers' wages 16%.
  • Protected Social Security and Medicare from cuts and is committed to strengthening and protecting program benefits.
Biden and Democrats Failure:
  • Caused home prices to rise 17% and interest rates to surge 8% causing massive price surges for gas, groceries, and rent.
  • Bidenomics kept incomes from keeping up with inflation and Americans are making less now since Biden took office.
  • Destroyed the value of Social Security and Medicare benefits with inflation, robbing Seniors of their purchasing power and ability to live comfortably.

Editor:

With the constant barrage of information through social media and traditional media sources, there comes a time when rational people see that words do matter.

Recently, the Republican nominee for President of the United States was targeted by a would-be assassin during a political rally in Pennsylvania. I am old enough to remember the aftermath of President John Kennedy’s assassination, the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and the attempt on President Ronald Reagan’s life. As with those events, the attempted assassination of former President Donald J. Trump will forever be etched into our public consciousness.  Click here to read the rest of Timothy Carter's letter to the editor.

REPUBLICAN PARTY OF VIRGINIA STATEMENT ON RADICAL DEMOCRATS
TRADING ONE LEFT-WING PUPPET FOR ANOTHER
VIRGINIA.GOP PRESS
(Posted 07/22/2024)
Richmond, Virginia: With Joe Biden trailing Donald Trump in every swing state, including Virginia, Democrat elites are now trying to trade one puppet of the Radical Left for another. 14 million Democrat voters went to the polls to choose Joe Biden as their nominee, and now the Democrat establishment’s massive pressure campaign has succeeded in undemocratically bullying Joe Biden off the ticket. The Democrat establishment is the real threat to democracy in this race.

Now Joe Biden has thrown his support behind Kamala Harris, the co-pilot for the Era of Biden Decline. Everything Biden entrusted to Kamala turned into a complete and unmitigated disaster, including her failed “leadership” on the border crisis.

Kamala Harris is a California liberal who is deeply unpopular with the American people. Just like Joe Biden, she is trailing President Trump badly in the polls. 

Kamala Harris is also chiefly responsible for covering up Biden’s cognitive decline, which she must now answer for.
While Democrats continue to be the party of chaos and disorder, Republicans stand united behind the Trump-Vance agenda to secure the border, revitalize our economy, and give every American the opportunity to prosper.

The Ignominy of Master Sergeant Timothy Walz:
Article on X.
Quote from the article: "I would like to share my own personal experiences and thoughts as a retired Army Colonel and veteran of both Iraq and Afghanistan. What I hope for civilians to understand is this: the issue is not the number of years Walz served, or when he submitted his retirement paperwork, or what his final rank was, or even—just as a stand-alone proposition—whether he ever went to combat. No, the issue is the unique and special position of trust he held when he decided to walk away from his soldiers, his unit, and his nation. I’ll explain."  Click here to read the rest.

Ben Cline at the 2024 RNC Convention
Since Biden and Harris took office:
"Since this Administration took office, 378 individuals on the terrorist watchlist have been caught attempting to enter our country illegally. Just as concerning, there have been over 2 million known gotaways who have successfully evaded Border Patrol that we know nothing about. We must take decisive action to protect our communities, especially women and children. House Republicans are committed to fighting for strong immigration laws that uphold our values: protecting Americans and deporting criminals." -- Congressman Ben Cline

10/28/2024: In his latest Sixth District Perspectives with Congressman Ben Cline newsletter,
Ben writes, "As the October district work period continues, it has been great to be home in the Valley, meeting with constituents to discuss the challenges that face our Nation. Last week, I hosted my Annual Higher Education Roundtable with university leaders from across Virginia, where we addressed the obstacles that face families and institutions of higher education. An alarming Fox News Article revealed a Department of Homeland Security official has published a series of videos on social media promoting illegal migration. Since she took office, Vice President Kamala Harris has backed an out-of-touch electric vehicle mandate that would significantly limit consumer choice across the United States. Recently, I was honored to be recognized as one of the Top 10 House Members who stand up for free speech by the Media Research Center. As always, it’s an honor to meet with constituents, to address our Nation's critical issues, and advocate for commonsense policies across Virginia’s Sixth District.

Annual Higher Education Roundtable

Last week, I hosted my Annual Higher Education Roundtable at Hollins University in Roanoke. This event provided me with a valuable opportunity to collaborate with university leaders from across Virginia to address the critical challenges faced by students, faculty, and staff. With over 20 colleges and universities in Virginia’s Sixth District alone, finding effective solutions to support these higher education institutions is paramount. During our discussion, we focused on the increasing demand for associate's degrees and certificate programs, such as Certified Nursing Assistants (CNA) and Commercial Driver’s Licenses (CDL), which are invaluable to our local communities. We also tackled the recent prolonged delays with the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), which have hindered students in securing the federal aid necessary to finalize their college decisions. Furthermore, we explored the benefits of partnerships between community colleges and four-year institutions, which create more affordable pathways for students seeking advanced degrees. Lastly, we addressed ways to improve college readiness for high school graduates transitioning into higher education and evaluated the return on investment for attending a college or university. I will always be committed to expanding opportunities for students, faculty, and staff, as well as making higher education more accessible and adaptable across Virginia."

Required Reading: "A Republic if You Can Keep It"
... by James R. Poplar III

Philadelphia, 1787 a woman approached Benjamin Franklin and asked him, “well, Doctor, what do we have, a Republic or a Monarchy?” Franklin replied sagely, “a Republic if you can keep it.”

Fast forward to the height of the Cold War, political theorist and former FBI employee Cleon Skousen authored “The Naked Communist” which outlined a concerted effort to overcome and control all of the world's governments through the implementation of social progressivism. Although I generally do not subscribe to conspiracy theories, let’s take a look at what the author predicted sixty- five years ago, I think you will be amazed.  Read on...

So, exactly what does it mean to be a Republican? What are the Republican party’s core values and beliefs? What do Republicans vote “for” (and not simply “against”) when they cast a ballot, and why should you consider voting Republican in the next election?

Here are six great reasons to vote Republican as outlined in the following article: Why Vote Republican? Six Great Reasons Why You Should Vote Republican in the Next Election! … by Ros Poplar of the Shenandoah County Republican Committee (SCRC) Visit shenandoahrepublican.com/why-vote-republican.html
