Note: This is the fourth of four columns that will be released every Monday leading up to the 2018 midterm elections.
As many of you know, Ben Shapiro spent the past month doing a 4 part special of Fox News about the midterm 2018 election. I figured it would be best for me to end my 4 part midterm special by responding to how he ended his 4 part midterm special.
Ben ended his series with 10 reasons you should vote Republican. So, being the partisan hack that I am, I figured I would take his reasons and explain why they're actually reasons you shouldn't vote Republican. Here you go.
1: The Courts
Donald Trump has appointed two people to the Supreme Court, Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh. Gorsuch, of course, is a corporate shill who supports companies being allowed to do basically whatever they want (from the party of Teddy). Meanwhile, Kavanaugh has been accused of sexual assault.
Even on the local level, things aren't much better. This includes putting radical catholic Amy Barrette and another individual who believes in ghost. This court has waged war against Unions, LGBT rights, and much more that should be held as important parts of liberty.
2: The Investigation
Do you want to know what actually happened in the 2016 election? For that matter, do you want to know why so many conflicts of interest exist in this administration? Well, then you should not support Republicans considering they are against transparency in government and have even supported anonymous money in politics.
3: Impeachment
This won't actually happen. It's just very funny they think it can happen.
4: The Economy
While I may not personally be an economist, here's what I know: Under the last 2 Republican presidents (both George Bush's) we hit the worst economic point since the great depression. Democrats, for all their faults, have not managed to create an economic downturn on that level since the great depression. Also, the president during the start of the great depression, Herbert Hoover, was a Republican.
5: Foreign Policy
Do you not like the idea of going to war with Iran, doing regime change in Venezuela, and toppling Assad? Then the Republican party may not be the party for you.
6: Culture War
If Republicans win, the US will be in a very bad state. However, they'll make sure to have a reason for such. This is where the distraction known as the "culture war" comes in. You see, it's the fault of those queer people and not the fault of our bad economic policies. Can't wait for another federal marriage amendment.
7: Attacks On Religious Liberty
The Muslum ban, that is all.
8: Twisting of Social Media
Jeff Sessions more or less wants social media to be nationalized. He wants them to not be able to enforce their own terms of service because it hurts them more, despite them being able to go on any number of right-wing websites and spew their pretend facts.
9: Media Complex
We live in a world where people call Sean Hannity the "shadow chief of staff", that is all.
10: Mob Rule
The mob is the Republican Party. Most Americans want single payer, more gun control, and no wars. Yet, Republicans make sure we never get them. They want the rule of orginazed money, which is just as dangerous as the rule of orginazed mob.
