In an opinion piece, Home Depot founder Bernie Marcus issued a call for Republicans to unite behind Donald Trump in 2024.
At 94 years old, Marcus expressed dismay with Biden’s presidency and fear that free market capitalism could be replaced by socialism due to executive overreach that undermines constitutional processes.
He criticized legacy media for failing to properly challenge the Biden administration.
“Fundamental change in America is occurring by executive order or the force of the government’s police powers instead of through the legislative process required by the Constitution. From this, I fear that free market capitalism may be replaced by big government socialism. I also fear the erosion of our rights and freedoms, including parental rights, freedom of speech and religion, and due process,” Marcus wrote.
Marcus attacked Biden policies like the southern border situation, rising crime, economic struggles for the middle class, and divisions in America.
He argued Trump’s strength and policies as president avoided new conflicts and kept enemies fearful, which is essential for national security.
“In the past, I always had the confidence that a president who was a threat to democracy could be voted out of office in the next election. I am no longer that confident today. My lack of confidence is because the media today is not the watchdog over government that our Founders intended it to be. It is instead the lapdog of government, shielding the public from the entire truth about the policies and actions of the current administration.”
“The Biden administration’s policies invited an invasion along our southern border by millions of unvetted people, compromised national security, allowed crime to spin out of control in our streets, forced middle-class Americans to raid their retirement funds to put food on their tables, and divided America more than at any time in our history since the Civil War. Joe Biden has fulfilled Barack Obama’s promise to ‘transform’ America. This is not a welcome transformation, as confirmed by Biden’s dismal job approval ratings,” he said.
To save America, Marcus declared the different GOP factions must unite behind Trump in 2024 and fully participate in the presidential election, saying no one should sit out or withhold financial support from the nominee.
“America is worth saving!” he wrote.
“Put another way, no one should sit out the presidential election or withhold their financial support to our nominee,” Marcus said.
