I truly hope both the Democratic and Republican parties can become more moderate and move closer to the center. God bless and goodnight.

@elonmusk @elonmusk no shame or humility from you ever. You are building robots and self driving taxis but am sure you have not once mentioned UBI or other employment offsets to @realDonaldTrump

[Ken May @Yamnek]

I really thought the U.S. electorate would refute Donald Trump and remember January 6th but I guess memories are short and the youth are impressionable.

I voted for the candidate that understands and values the ideas and strengths that all Americans bring to our great nation. #KamalaHarris #Election2024

I voted for the candidate that has convicted criminals of felonies not the one that is convicted of felonies. #KamalaHarris #Election2024

I voted for the candidate that will actually continue the increase of US Manufacturing jobs that started under Biden not the one selling vanity Bibles printed in China. #HarrisWalz #Election2024

Could you imagine saying and doing the things @realDonaldTrump does on the campaign trail, in debates, and at rallies and still expect to be hired? Consider this as his interview for the job of POTUS. No thanks, I am voting for @KamalaHarris.

[Ken May @Yamnek]

Why Kamala Harris? Here are 270 reasons why in essay form for information and inspiration. Democracy is greater than Authoritarianism. Representational Democracy is better than Oligarchy. https://t.co/hE1AF1lNb2

I don’t really do endorsements. I’m not shy about sharing my views, but I hate politics and don’t trust most politicians.

I also understand that people want to hear from me because I am not just a celebrity, I am a former Republican Governor.

My time as Governor taught me to love policy and ignore politics. I’m proud of the work I did to help clean up our air, create jobs, balance the budget, make the biggest infrastructure investment in state history, and take power from the politicians and give it back to the people when it comes to our redistricting process and our primaries in California.

That’s policy. It requires working with the other side, not insulting them to win your next election, and I know it isn’t sexy to most people, but I love it when I can help make people’s lives better with policies, like I still do through my institute at USC, where we fight for clean air and stripping the power from the politicians who rig the system against the people.

Let me be honest with you: I don’t like either party right now. My Republicans have forgotten the beauty of the free market, driven up deficits, and rejected election results. Democrats aren’t any better at dealing with deficits, and I worry about their local policies hurting our cities with increased crime.

It is probably not a surprise that I hate politics more than ever, which, if you are a normal person who isn’t addicted to this crap, you probably understand.

I want to tune out.

But I can��t. Because rejecting the results of an election is as un-American as it gets. To someone like me who talks to people all over the world and still knows America is the shining city on a hill, calling America is a trash can for the world is so unpatriotic, it makes me furious.

And I will always be an American before I am a Republican.

That’s why, this week, I am voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.

I’m sharing it with all of you because I think there are a lot of you who feel like I do. You don’t recognize our country. And you are right to be furious.

For decades, we’ve talked about the national debt. For decades, we’ve talked about comprehensive immigration reform that secures the border while fixing our broken immigration system. And Washington does nothing.

The problems just keep rolling, and we all keep getting angrier, because the only people that benefit from problems aren’t you, the people. The only people that benefit from this crap are the politicians who prefer having talking points to win elections to the public service that will make Americans’ lives better.

It is a just game to them. But it is life for my fellow Americans. We should be pissed!

But a candidate who won’t respect your vote unless it is for him, a candidate who will send his followers to storm the Capitol while he watches with a Diet Coke, a candidate who has shown no ability to work to pass any policy besides a tax cut that helped his donors and other rich people like me but helped no one else else, a candidate who thinks Americans who disagree with him are the bigger enemies than China, Russia, or North Korea - that won’t solve our problems.

It will just be four more years of bullshit with no results that makes us angrier and angrier, more divided, and more hateful.

We need to close the door on this chapter of American history, and I know that former President Trump won’t do that. He will divide, he will insult, he will find new ways to be more un-American than he already has been, and we, the people, will get nothing but more anger.

That’s enough reason for me to share my vote with all of you. I want to move forward as a country, and even though I have plenty of disagreements with their platform, I think the only way to do that is with Harris and Walz.

Vote this week. Turn the page and put this junk behind us.

And even if you disagree with me, vote, because that’s what we do as Americans. https://t.co/eHFZ723I4H

The biggest problem with Twitter and social media is now everyone thinks they are policymakers w/o education and work required to be one (self-included).

Get vaccinated and may the 4th be with you always.

[Ken May @Yamnek]

@nytimes People need to get vaccinated...only specific medical cases should be exempt. Let's also create cash/prize incentives first then punitive fines if that doesn't work.
