are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican,
American, White, male, older, non-poor, gun owners, German American, and/or
those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. Ever-increasingly,
RINO candidates pander to those who are anti-Trump, anti-Protestant,
anti-conservative, anti-patriotic, anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-White,
anti-male, anti-older people, anti-rich people, anti-gun owners, anti-German
Americans, and/or anti-those whose ancestors have been in America for a long

All my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes promote age

and especially if you are a Trump supporter, Protestant, conservative,
patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, non-poor, gun owner, German
American, draft avoider, and/or if your ancestors have been in America for a
long time. I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives,
and their dupes. I would focus on past and present leaders of the Milton
Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee,
and Illinois Republican Party. I would focus on those who have lots of
religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Wheaton
Chamber of Commerce, Glen Ellyn, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois.)
