By the end of the day on Nov. 5, millions of people across the nation will have cast their votes for the 47th president of the United States. Many of those votes will come from people who are seeking some relief from their daily financial struggles.
Aziz Bekishov, the CEO of DC Mobile Notary, said that as someone living paycheck to paycheck, he’s supporting Donald Trump in this election because he believes the former president’s policies might provide the financial stability he’s seeking. “I believe a change in administration could bring real financial relief and renewed opportunity for working families like mine,” he explained.
Here’s more on why Bekishov thinks voting for Trump in 2024 is a better financial decision.
Focus on Economic Stability and Job Creation
Bekishov shared that one reason he’s voting for Trump in the upcoming election is because he believes Trump’s policies prioritize job creation and economic stability.
“Living paycheck to paycheck, I see how much even small economic shifts impact my life,” he said. “I think a stronger emphasis on pro-business policies could mean more job opportunities and better wages, especially for blue-collar and middle-income workers.”
Lowering Taxes and Reducing Inflation
“Another reason I’m supporting Trump is his commitment to reducing taxes for individuals and small businesses,” Bekishov said.
He added that tax reductions could make a real difference for people who, like him, feel the pinch of each paycheck. “Every bit counts when you’re stretching every dollar,” he said.
Bekishov noted that inflation has hit his budget hard, which has made it more challenging to afford essentials. He sees Trump’s policies as potentially more effective at addressing inflation, particularly by reducing costs on everyday goods, which he believes would improve the day-to-day lives of Americans facing similar financial challenges.
Energy Independence for Lower Costs
High energy prices have taken a financial toll on Bekishov. “Gas and energy prices have been a constant strain on my finances,” he said.
He supports Trump’s approach to energy independence, noting that a focus on domestic oil and gas production could reduce gas and heating costs. Bekishov believes that a more energy-independent nation could also stabilize related overall costs, providing some financial breathing room for individuals who, like him, rely on affordable fuel and utilities.
Takeaway
Bekishov’s perspective reflects the money-based concerns of many voters as they consider how leadership choices might impact their current budgets and long-term financial stability. For voters like Bekishov, Trump’s economic track record and current promises might just be compelling enough for them to support the former president in the upcoming election.
