Three of four GOP hopefuls are lacking

What do Diane Black, Bill Lee and Randy Boyd have in common? They all state the following beliefs: God, family, guns, immigrants (bad), and their love and “want to be” like Donald Trump. Diane Black wins that Donald Trump “want to be” award. She takes pride in her photo ops with Trump and regurgitates everything Trump says.

All claim to be conservatives. Conservatives don’t pass tax cuts and at the same time increase the national debt by billions. Conservatives don’t support ridiculous ill-planned tariffs and pull out of trade deals without having a backup plan. Nor do they support isolationism.

All three claim to support the president the “most.” Does that mean they support his lies, corruption and his attacks on the media and our intelligence agencies?

They all do well in promoting their attack ads on each other. They did get that from Donald. None of the three have ever said anything about what their priorities are and what their plans are for Tennesseans. If I am not mistaken, they are running for governor, not the presidency.
