I am begging the voters of two states; Kentucky and South Carolina; to band together and vote against the reelection of two hypocrites who became Trump puppets after the 2016 election. Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham are traitors to the American people whose lies must be exposed and their lives of luxury and privilege revoked.

McConnell has failed the people of Kentucky and all Americans for nearly 35 years. His accomplishments for our nation are nil, and his loyalty is not to the United States of America. Everything McConnell has done is for his party and his personal advancement. He is a traitor to his oath of office.

The late Senator from Arizona, John McCain, kept Graham under control. After Mr. McCain’s death, Graham couldn’t find enough ways to kiss Trump’s humongous derriere. He lies almost as many times as his puppeteer.

These old, white men are the epitome of why term limits must exist in Washington. Longevity in government creates corruption and offers a since of invincibility. After two terms in office nearly all politicians begin to ignore the people and do anything to support their personal beliefs. They begin to rule and not serve the people.

Change is mandatory in Washington and across the nation. Term limits will rid our country of old, white men who have overstayed their welcome. Secondly, our nation is divided more than at any other time since the Civil War. Red and Blue states would not exist without the Electoral College.

We, the people, should elect the president; period. Giving smaller states power over the people is un-American. My vote should be counted in every election, or why should I vote at all?

Our most important first amendment right is the right to vote. Let’s change our government forever and abolish the Electoral College. The only reason it exists is to protect Republicans. The truth is that without this antiquated law, no Republican would have been in the White House since 1993.

If Republicans complain, I say “choose better candidates;” candidates who will work for all of our nation’s people.
