On a scale of 1 to 10 (with 1 being "not at all" and 10 being "completely") how much do you support President Trump's agenda? Explain.

I fully support President Trumps agenda, there is a lot to this, so let’s look a just a few items.

1. Foreign Policy

a. Venezuela – I believe this was a smart geopolitical move because it provides the U.S. with leverage over China as it pertains to Taiwan. Taiwan manufactures 60% to 90% of the world’s chip production. If China takes Taiwan, they will have huge leverage over the U.S. and our supply of chips. At the moment, we control the large amount of oil they rely on, giving us leverage if they ever move on Taiwan.

b. Israel and Hamas – Trump did what he said he would do and brokered a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, but most importantly all of the hostages have been freed.

2. Securing our Border

a. The border is closed and illegal immigration has been stopped. The Trump administration and over three million illegal immigrants have left the country either through self-deportation or involuntary deportation. I fully support deporting all illegal immigrants, focusing on the worst of the worst first. Remember, the Biden administration and sanctuary cities run by extreme liberals like in Minneapolis created this difficult issue we are faced with today.

3. Energy – Coal and Oil

a. Trump is working to keep coal plants opened to help supply electricity and support a very strained grid. I fully support these efforts.

b. Speeding up the permitting process for oil and gas drilling as well as making available more land for oil and gas drilling.

c. With so many data centers being planned and built that will utilize a great deal of energy, we can’t rely on wind power and other green energy to support our strained grid. President Trump’s agenda utilizing more coal and oil will help our country be self-sufficient. https://www.northwestgeorgianews.com/rome/news/local/14th-congressional-district-q-a-eric-cunningham/article_745f2453-9f57-4784-b895-18ebeaab4b97.html
