Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White,

TOWN COURIER
— City Councilman Robert Wu Seeks Second Term – Ellyn Wexler
http://towncourier.com/city-councilman-robert-wu-seeks-second-term/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Many
of the skills Wu has honed during his day job—as senior attorney at the U.S.
Government Accountability Office (GAO)—have helped him become effective in his
City of Gaithersburg position. “I often find myself in the role of interpreting
ordinances, parsing out legalese when amendments to existing language are
proposed, and, at least in one instance, actually drafting an ordinance,” he
said. “At GAO,” Wu explained, “I serve in a quasi-judicial role, adjudicating
bid protests filed with our office. The skillset is very similar to that used
in deciding matters brought before the city council, including fairmindedness,
the ability to absorb large records and ultimately render a decision.” “A firm
belief that process matters” also factors into both jobs. “As companies who
file protests with GAO understand, while we might not necessarily agree with them
in the end, each argument raised is heard and carefully considered,” Wu said.
“The same goes for my work at city council. Each individual who takes their
valuable time to appear before us or submit written matters has to know that
their views have been heard and seriously considered.”)

MAYO CLINIC

me to fail to keep their blood sugar level in control was far more damaging

out instead of exercising or sleeping.)

operative or someone’s dupe. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their
dupes are beyond furious that I have a $53,316/year COLA-adjusted Civil Service
Retirement System pension for life, $2,118/year COLA-adjusted Social Security

— El Paso Mayor Says President Trump Called Him a RINO – BILLY PERRIGO
(DIERSEN: QUESTION: What do Democrat plants, Libertarian plants, Green plants,
and RINOs in Republican organizations in Illinois do? ANSWER: They discourage
me from putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails together and sending them out. They
discourage everyone from reading GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails. They turn everyone that
they can against me, including those who run the Holiday Inn in Carol Stream,
those who ran the Wheaton Bowl, Milton Township Republican Central Committee
(MTRCC) members, Wheaton City Council members, and voters in my precinct. They
make false accusations against me and demonize me, denigrate me, and condemn me
at MTRCC meetings. They intimidate/threaten those who might come to my defense.
They discourage Republican candidates, elected officials, party leaders, and
organizations from helping sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parade and fireworks.
They promote booze, gambling, pot, and other vices.)

WIKIPEDIA
— Negative campaigning (DIERSEN: If you seek a government office or a
political office, you should expect that sooner or later, your opponents will
engage in negative campaigning against you. I am seeking appointment to fill
Wheaton’s West District City Council vacancy. Even though there is no chance
that I will be selected, my opponents in Wheaton’s West District are engaging
in negative campaigning against me. At the Milton Township Republican Central
Committee (MTRCC) August 14, 2019 meeting at the Holiday Inn in Carol Stream,
two of my fellow MTRCC members in Wheaton’s West District falsely charged me
with harassing the hotel’s employees. In addition, one of them, in front of an
attorney, said that he was going to do everything that he could to stop
everyone from reading my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails.)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_campaigning
(FROM THE POSTING: Negative campaigning or mudslinging is the process of
deliberate spreading negative information about someone or something to worsen
the public image of the described. Deliberate spreading of such information can
be motivated either by honest desire of the campaigner to warn others against
real dangers or deficiencies of the described, or by the campaigner’s dishonest
ideas on methods of winning in political, business or other spheres of
competition against an honest rival. The public image of an entity can be
defined as reputation, esteem, respect, acceptance of the entity’s appearance,
values and behavior by the general public of a given territory and/or a social
group, possibly within time limits. As target groups of public and their values
differ, so negativity or positivity of a public image is relative; thus, to be
successful, negative campaigning has to take into account current values of the
group it addresses. The degree of strictness in practicing the group’s values
as opposed to its tolerance for violating the norms has also to be taken into
consideration.)
