Apparently, President Trump has \u201cmet his match.\u201d That is, if his match is yet another anti-Trump activist.<\/span><\/p>\n

San Diego City Council President Georgette G\u00f3mez put out a new ad targeting President Trump, presenting herself as if she’s running for president.<\/span><\/p>\n

G\u00f3mez\u2019s ad opens with \u201cDonald Trump has met his match.\u201d It goes on to tout that she is the daughter of immigrants and \u201cthe first LGBT Latina city council president.\u201d It continues by informing voters that she is dedicated to \u201cprotecting dreamers\u201d and \u201cfighting against Trump\u2019s wall.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

There are several problems I see with this ad. First of all, what does being LBGT and Latina have to do with anything? At the end of the day, we are all Americans and that is the only identity that should really be boasted when running for office in this country.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Next, how is \u201cfighting against Trump\u2019s wall\u201d a good thing? Whether you are an avid supporter of the wall or not, there is no doubt that it will strengthen the security of the country. There is no reason to be proud of the fact that she wants to make the country less secure.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

To continue, why is \u201cprotecting dreamers\u201d a main point in her advertisement? Dreamers makeup a fraction of a fraction of our population. Shouldn\u2019t she be promoting things that actually benefit Americans?<\/span><\/p>\n

In fact, throughout her whole ad, she does not boast a single thing that directly benefits American citizens. Not one.<\/span><\/p>\n

At the State of the Union, several democratic congressmen and woman either did not attend or left during the speech. Those who did attend refused to clap at any point. Governor Gavin Newsom is also starkly anti-Trump.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We already have plenty of anti-Trump activists in our government, do we really need another?<\/span><\/p>\n

We need elected officials that are going to fight for what is in the best interest of Americans, and Georgette G\u00f3mez is clearly not looking to do that.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
