The tightrope we conservatives are forced to walk these days is starting to feel more like a razor's edge—painful, precarious, and sometimes downright unbearable. On the one hand, we have a GOP that can't seem to muster the backbone to stand firm on one of the most crucial moral issues of our time: the sanctity of life. On the other, we have the Democratic Party—a political juggernaut of moral decay, soon to be led by the likes of KKKamala Harris, whose hypocrisy, deceit, and incompetence would be laughable if it weren't so dangerous.

The dilemma we face is real, and I feel it as much as anyone.

Donald Trump, despite his supposed achievements, has disappointed many of us with his compromise on abortion. How is it that the party that once stood as a strong defense for life has managed to fumble on this most basic of issues?

To put it simply—Trump caved to the pressure. And there is no sugar-coating that. Yet, despite his compromises, we’re still left in a bind. We cannot, in good conscience, hand the reigns over to a party that celebrates death, puts kids into the hands of perverts, demands conformity, and threatens every last freedom we hold dear.

So what do we do? Do we sit it out, punish the GOP for its spinelessness, and watch the Democrats dance on the ashes of our liberties? Or do we hold our noses and vote for the lesser of two evils, praying for a few more years of relative freedom?

The very thought of KKKamala as president should send a chill down the spine of every freedom-loving American. Harris, the queen of hypocrisy, will preach about rights and justice from one side of her mouth while tearing them down with the other. Remember that 2019 interview with CNN? When she railed against social media platforms for "directly speaking to millions of people without any level of oversight and regulation"?
