Talking Points when Discussing the Arizona Senate Race
Who is Ruben Gallego?
In case you weren’t taking notes when Kari Lake was speaking at last week’s mega-meeting, I wanted to give you a list of the positions and policies of her senate opponent, Democrat Ruben Gallego. First, Kari mentioned the Opposition Research book written about him, which is 1000 pages long! For a person 40+ years old, that is a lot of bad press! Here are the highlights:
He is a politician, having been in politics since 2014 serving in the Arizona State House. He supports having men in women’s sports. He is for raising taxes by one trillion dollars, including hikes on workers and small companies. He voted to approve 87,000 IRS agents.
He is in favor of open borders. He has stated that a border wall is stupid and dumb and says he will never support it. He is in favor of spending billions of dollars on border issues and giving money to illegals. He insists on NOT calling those crossing our border “illegals.” He favors the Catch & Release policy. As for the border problem, he believes the answer is having more immigration judges to process claims faster and reduce the current 5-7 years waiting time. His idea of "comprehensive immigration reform" is having more border patrol and customs agents to process illegals so that the majority of people "seeking asylum" can come work in our country faster.
He does not want to fix the homeless crisis. There is too much money to be made from it. He does not want to make peace with Russia. There is too much money being made from this war.
He ran on a platform of “defund the police”. He sees no problem with campus chaos which is funded by outside Soros funded groups. He supports the Arizona abortion ballot initiative, which allows abortion up until birth. He has vowed to break the filibuster and codify Roe vs. Wade as a right, taking us back to the 70’s.
As to the Middle East, he believes there needs to be a two-state solution with “well-defined borders”. Odd that he doesn’t care about America’s well-defined borders!
On voting rights, he supports early voting, defeating “election deniers” and “codifying rights,” whatever that means. He believes our gun rights laws are too loose and cause us to live in fear. Has he heard of the Second Amendment? Guns for protecting ourselves from the criminals he would put back on the streets?
As for the high cost of housing in Maricopa County, his solution to this Biden-induced inflation problem is supporting a special program for first time buyers allowing a 1% down payment and subsidies for starter homes. What could go wrong? They will most likely not be able to make these payments if the subsidies are ever stopped. Does he intend to have their entire 30-year loan subsidized by other taxpayers? Once, again, to deal with “the current living costs” (Biden’s Inflation), he supports raising the minimum wage, which never works, and restoring the Covid-Era child tax credits. He believes that will reduce child poverty significantly.
He believes he can “save our country” by having people vote for him and his policies. Reading this you see that Ruben Gallego is a typical left-leaning Democrat who does not believe the solution to our economic problems is Capitalism, free markets, job creation, and a better educated population who can make their own way, pay their own bills, support their own families through hard work, and take responsibility for their own lives. He believes instead that we should depend on the government for our survival and prosperity through handouts, free money, and no accountability.
The Democrats love raising taxes on those who support the economy by working, so they can hand their money to those who are disincentivized to work. As with most Democrats he has drunk the Kool-Aide of Socialism, believes it is the solution to everything, and has no clue that America achieved its greatness through less government, free enterprise, and self-reliance.
He has a 250-million-dollar war chest from Soros and other Democrat mega-donors to help him win this senate race. Ruben has voted for Biden policies 100% of the time. He is a far-left Democrat from Chicago, bought and paid for by the party. Kari Lake calls him the 40-year-old version of Joe Biden. We cannot allow him to win in November!
