[Hoot Gibson]

I did some research on this author and her employer. SEKYFAN might as well be citing passages from the Communist Manifesto. I have stopped worrying about using conservative news sources in my links. These clowns could not care less about the fact that they routinely resort to linking to far left wing propaganda sites. 

The author of the opinion piece cited in the OP is employed by the Sidney Hillman Foundation. Sidney Hillman was a top advisor under FDR and was one of the founders of the CIO (as in the AFL/CIO union). The editorial is full of factual errors, with its main assumptions being that people voted for Trump because they 1) did not realize that the inflation rate had returned to a historical "normal" level, 2) did not realize that the crime rate was not at a historical high, and 3) did not realize that border crossings were down under Biden. Those who realized these "truths" voted overwhelmingly for Harris.

Talk about delusional! SEKYFAN and OSH are the twin poster boys of delusion.

Having an open mind is not a bad thing...

Being in a constant state of delusion is not having an open mind. Neither is posting a constant stream of left-wing propaganda.

I am a conservative. Trump is a populist, but I have no trouble agreeing with his actions when they coincide with my beliefs. I am also willing to keep an open mind in areas like tariffs, an economic tool that many conservatives including myself find questionable. I believe that Trump will fine tune tariffs to avoid negatively impacting the economy in a major way. He is not married to any political ideology, IMO, but he is a pragmatist. 

I find it hilarious that dedicated left-wingers such as yourself claim to be open-minded. Nothing could be further from the truth. You cannot even bring yourself to condemn obvious kickback schemes and a vast Democrat money laundering operation in federal agencies.
