Should the federal government ban certain "military-style" firearms, such as the AR-15?
"I would recommend the AR -15 be removed within four years of my office if I was president. If everyone has an A.R. 15, I will be able to keep it, but must have mental health care checks every two years to three years. Also, every person has any kind of gun handgun rifles, a Arch anything must take pictures of them every year with a updated newspaper or something to prove that he still owned a gun still have it they have not sold it or it's been stolen without notifying the state police or whoever is in charge of them in that state. Too many guns are bought by a person and handed off to another person we must stop this and I can do it. I will work with the NRA and make things make sense. Feel free to ask me more questions have a lot opinions on this."

Do you support a federal rule that would oblige automakers to make 50% or more of the vehicles they sell electric?
"I believe sooner or later all cars should be hybrid. We are still working on hundred percent electric vehicles. But the cost of them is outrageous. We do not have the infrastructure in the US to support all vehicles being 100% electric. Plus you cannot reuse/ recycle the batteries. look at my webpage I wrote article about this.Lyons2024.com"

Do you support ending China's Permanent Normal Trade Relations status?
"We must do something about it. Everything we buy off of them is cheaply made. Also, quite a bit of money goes back into their funds for their military building ships, jets, cyber, missiles, and everything. I want to bring the trade back to US and make things here. Everything we give them they duplicate and change a small thing to it and call it theirs"

Do you support revising Title IX to limit participation in female sports based on an individual's reproductive biology and genetics at birth?
"If you want to change your body again, you had a right to do what you want with your own body at a certain age. I don't believe kids should be allowed to change your bodies until the age of 18 to 21. I read a lot about this, and also I've met with men and women who have change your bodies and wish they never did. But if you're born a boy, you should not be allowed to be in women's sports! It's not fair to the ladies who work so hard the whole life and get beat by somebody who's change your sex, bio app and breaking records. So my answer is, I'm totally against men who change sex and playing ladies sports. It's just not fair."

Should the federal government ban some abortions?
"I do have to believe in life myself personally. Life is so precious. But I would never tell any woman what to do with her bodies as men wouldn't want people to tell them what do with theirs . I believe we can come together and figure out a compromise 12-14 weeks giving these ladies time to set up appointments, etc. I do not believe in abortion up to birth! In Maryland if you get into a car accident and a pregnant woman is killed in a car accident that person could charge with double murder. If you get an abortion at eight months, that's murder. I personally know Christian women who don't believe in abortion, but they believe women should have choice which I agree with 150%. after women out there, believe in pro-choice and the other half believe in pro life. Feel free to call me about this will be my happy talk to you about more on my opinion on this."

Should the federal government pass a law guaranteeing the right to choose abortion before fetal viability (generally 24 weeks gestation)?
"Again, the weeks have to be negotiated. Women should have the rights to do with their body. If I was president, government will not pay for abortions. I believe in women's healthcare, and helping them out anyway, I can. But not for abortions there's too many ways of contraceptive to keep it from happening. Even if it's a mistake, it takes two to tango let the man and woman pay for themselves."

Should the federal government limit certain firearm purchases to residents over age twenty-one?
"I believe nobody under the age of 21. Should be able to get any kind of handgun or high-powered rifles. I do believe in the second amendment. But we need to push for ALL guns must be put in safes ! I'm not talking about lockboxes I mean safes which have spinning combination not battery operated that would deter young kids from getting into it. Need better background checks and mental health checks I have a lot of stuff on my mind which would make safer ways to store . Any further questions on this feel free to contact me I'll give you all my opinions on the and more"

Should the government legalize marijuana at the federal level?
"Mixed feelings about this. If you legalize it, that will probably stop a lot of the Mexico cartel from bringing it into America because they never can get it from us. The tax money can go to schools, shelters that feed and house, people to help our own people. Also, part of it can go to rebuild Tatian to help these people get off the drugs. I don't know what's worse a times whiskey and then driving a car or marijuana being high and driving a car. They're both the same to me. I got it I thoughts about this."

Should the federal government reform Social Security by requiring means testing?
"The government took our Social Security money which was supposed never to be touched.We cannot trust the government with this anymore. Most people in Congress are not very smart when it comes to business! They took our money to pay off other stuff, and now they want to charge us higher tax to pay back what they took that belong to us in the first place go figure. You should have the option to privatize it . Should be able take so much of your pay and put it into account and not be able to touch it until you retire. I have a plan call Dad TPT, which would help with a lot of stuff. Bring the deficit down help with Social Security and a lot of other problems. I will explain myself on a campaign trail if I asked."

Would you pardon former president Donald Trump if he is convicted?
"If I'm president of United States, I would forgive Trump . But only if he came to me personally asking me for a pardon. Before I would do that he would have to go on national TV with me standing beside him asking for forgiveness not from me but forgiveness, from the people of the United States. If he does this, I will pardon him."
