— In your county, township, municipality, school district, and precinct, how wany voted for Harris in the November 5, 2024 election and how many voted for Democrats in the April 1, 2025 election? If you are a registered Republican voter, what do those Democrat voters think of you? What do they blame you for? According to them, you put Trump in office. Democrat leaders and their mainstream news media ever-increasingly a) demonize, denigrate, and condemn Trump and everything that Trump says and does and b) hint/imply/argue/shout that local Democrats should punish local Republicans to punish Trump. If you are a Republican registered voter, anticipate/expect that local Democrats will ever-increasingly ostracize you if not take adverse actions against you. What are the following doing to defend/advance Trump: a) the leaders of your Republican township and county party organizations, b) the leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, c) Republican elected officials in your area, and d) conservative and religious leaders and activists in your area? – Dave Diersen

— Why is so much hatred being promoted against the 2025 Dodge Charger R/T? What are the demographics of those who buy the car? I bought a new 1969 Charger SE in 1968 and owned it until it was stolen in 1971. I bought a 1968 Charger R/T collector car in 1994 and sold it to buy a new 2005 Corvette in 2005. I bought a new 2013 Charger R/T Max in 2012 and I continue to own it. I recently bought a new 2025 Dodge Charger R/T Plus.
