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.

It's a slightly worrying thing here too, the "election" impacts us as Mexicans. "Build a wall, immigration as a problem, deportation etc." Actually, most people here couldn't give a ****, (Noting against your post OFH) But, we are our own place, and a lot a lot of people here are sick of Gringos meddling in affairs here. Good luck to them but leave us alone. hard when you are sliced by a boarder and bonded by trade (Slave labour!) Guns are rife here, where do they come from? They want Capo's heads? That hasn't solved anything since Calderon's time and he tried that.
USA police the world, Mexicans are sick of them!!
Halloween here, but I am deep rooted, and day of the dead is prevalent in my family and is nothing to do with it. More Home Depot here and other such Walmart.
The Westernised mind has my mind confused, I love to go to real rural local places, despite being in a city, but I grew up that way so maybe it is just me.
Can neither win?
I just want to live on the hills and drop down to fish, but back in a big city now, León, so got the heart of a Lion. Maybe an old school mentality, but just want a peaceful life.
Sis-in-law and her kids live in the states, but when they come it's family time and politics is not discussed.
How's Labour doing in Blighty? A genuine question as saw fudge it passed but not sure what is what.
Isn't Arnie an immigrant as it is, like me?
Most Mexicans think I am for the US of A, until they talk to me, then they give me more time of day! Not too much more, but at least we understand football!
