John Washington III Says Politicians Who Forgot the People Now Ask the People to Fight for Them
John Washington III, a 2028 presidential candidate, argued that politicians who passed laws taking money and rights from the public cannot now expect the public to save their careers, writing that elected officials work for the people, not the other way around.
John Washington III, a 2028 presidential candidate, has challenged politicians who, in his words, turned their backs on voters after winning office and now expect those same voters to defend them. "For years, politicians have passed laws that take more money from our pockets and strip away our rights," he wrote. "But now that the same corrupt system is coming after you, suddenly you want the American people to stand up and fight for you?"
John Washington III asked where those officials were when voters needed them. "We elected you to fight for us, not become part of the very system hurting us," he wrote. "Every election, you beg for our votes, money, and loyalty. Then, once you win, you turn your backs on the people."
John Washington III said he is done fighting to save political careers while everyday Americans struggle to protect their rights and freedoms. "Your political battles are not our responsibility," he wrote. "I'm fighting for the people, not politicians who forgot who they work for. You work for us. We don't work for you." He closed with his campaign's stated principle: "The people come first. Period!"
