VOTE KUNKEL> Why I’m Running For Office
Description
I’m done waiting for “better leaders” to magically appear. From Jacksonville, Illinois, I’m saying out loud what a lot of people only say at the kitchen table: when nobody challenges power, corruption gets comfortable, lies get normalized, and regular people pay the price. That’s why I’m running for Democratic office, even though I’m not a career politician. I’m a builder, a science-minded guy, and a citizen who’s had enough.
We talk about what pushed me over the edge, why local races matter as much as national headlines, and how my military family background shapes what I expect from public service. I also make room for a hard truth: you can disagree with someone and still admit when they show up for constituents or help veterans. Decency should not be rare in politics, and it shouldn’t be partisan.
Then we get into the bigger rot: misinformation, “alternative facts,” and the way propaganda trains people to accept nonsense as normal. We connect that to climate change science, government competence, and what happens when leaders put ego over evidence. My construction metaphor is the through-line: if the foundation is cracked, the whole house collapses, and democracy is no different.
Listen, share this with someone who’s tired of the spin, and leave a review if you want more straight talk about civic engagement, local politics, and rebuilding trust from the ground up.
Vote KUNKEL: `We are Americans, NOT MAGA! We care about you. Renee Nicole Good 37 Die because of trump, Repubilicans, and ICE!
CLEMONS KUNKEL AKA SUPER PROFESSOR
Ice killed Renee Nicole Good 37-year-old Mom! We have a 34-count convicted felon, Trump, who is enjoying destroying the country and our human rights to live! It's not going to stop. Trump believes in his hate and bullying. The first time he kidnapped 2,600 parents and kept the kids for Jeffrey Epstein, I'm sure. But Jeffrey Epstein died under Trump's watch, and we will never see all the files, but the mama's boy said he was going to release them. Trump lies to us 24/7. You can watch the video of Renee trying to get out of the way of the Trump Gestapo. She was not a terrorist, but Ashley Babbitt was, and her family got almost 5 million dollars for being a terrorist and an insurrectionist. Don't forget, Trump freed all the evil people, and their slates were wiped clean. You will not know who the insurrections are because they have clean records; there is no way of knowing that they were the ones who beat up cops.
Renee Nichole Good would have never died if the Republicans had done their job on the first two impeachments. Facts matter. I don't go by alternative facts from Kellyanne Conway andTrump
