We need to continue working hard to ensure President Trump wins the White
House again to further his agenda to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN and for
KEEPING AMERICA GREAT for generations to come.

We hope you and all Americans are doing well with this COVID 19 virus
pandemic. We would also like the thank everyone for following the CDC and
Florida Health guidelines which caused the slowing of the pandemic.

President Trump has nominated his third Supreme Court Justice, Amy Coney
Barrett. Judge Barrett is a brilliant jurist with outstanding legal credentials. Now
the Senate needs to quickly confirm. We will see the Democrats true colors
during this confirmation as we have for the last several months in all the riots
across the country.

As we continue to hear the Democrats narrative that projects their shortcomings
onto the President and Republicans. We need to counter these narratives with
truths and challenge them in every way.

With all the truths coming out about what the trouble Obama administration did to
cover-up their spying on the Trump campaign in 2016 and beyond, the Democrats
are panicking as their narratives are falling apart as Americans see the truth.
Don’t believe the Fake Main Street Media as they tell the lies of the Democrats.

 REELECT PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP FO FOUR MORE YEARS!

We need to talk to our neighbors, friends and family about what is going on in our
Country and get them to get out and vote. AND VOTE REPUBLICAN! Talk to
Democrats about how their Party has left them and they can switch their Party
affiliation to Republican. We also need to fight every lie the Democrats attempt to
tell America. Go to promiseskeep.com for help.

                               TRUMP 2020!
                           KEEP AMERICA GREAT

some comments from them were warmly received. Dinner was served after this
part of the meeting and President Jerry Prince began the post dinner
announcements, by stating that the next TVRC meeting would be October 8, 2020
