Shutting it Down Until it’s Over
     In my own view, not unlike millions of Americans we feel like we are watching a political nightmare unfolding. This post is neither Democrat nor Republican based, but instead is American based. I cannot convey how truly disgusted I am with both of our political parties, the mainstream media, the many talking heads that show up on TV day after day. Openly displaying a collusion in our political process without remorse.      Now that isn’t to say that on both sides there hasn’t been a swell of inappropriate comments, bashing, slandering of the other side. I will say there have been many truths revealed for us all as Americans to review and make our decision regarding which direction we want America to go. The die-hard elite Republicans are holding out hope that they can recover in 2020. The reality is at the end of the day it doesn’t matter what Donald Trump said, or what Bill & Hillary Clinton did. We all are sitting on the edge of changing our country one way or the other for good.      One direction we will lose our sovereignty as a nation and become part of the global world. That is one plan, and I can only urge anyone who feels OK with that to go online and look, really look at what is happening in Germany, Sweden, France and other countries. If we surrender our boarders we will truly be giving up our independence as a nation and it will change this country forever. This isn’t an argument about race, gender or nationality but about who we as a people chose to become. If your OK with that, if you can live with that then its your choice.     In the other direction we are taking a chance on something different. Not unlike Brexit this election for the other choice is about holding on to who we are as a nation. Keeping the very Constitution, and Bill of Rights our forefathers fought so hard for sacred. Because in reality that is what is at stake. Holding onto the checks and balances that keep us an ever changing country.      This isn’t an election about wall street verse the average person its much bigger than that. It’s about changing the dynamic of our country for generations to come. Changing the course, we are on for good. For anyone who is still in doubt and thinks we are still a two party system look closely. Look at the choices our representatives are making. They don’t benefit us as a society. They don’t actually make our lives better.      So for me I have reached my limit. I am turning off the TV, I’ve seen enough of the talking heads and realize we can’t really trust anyone in the News media any longer. Every one of them is being manipulated and maneuvered to portray a reality that isn’t even real. Wiki leaks dumped its 3rdbatch of real documents for people to see because they have religiously guarded their reputation for printing only factual documents I am not in doubt that what is being released is real. What I’ve seen is a government, and system that is so corrupt and putrid I am personally sickened by it, I honestly don't know how the rest of our country isn't.      I will be voting on November 8th for the candidates of my choice. After this election I will no longer be a Republican nor will I be a Democrat, neither party is worthy of my support or time. My only advice to anyone out there who cares to listen is turn off the TV. There is information out there if you’re not afraid to look for it, it may shock, or sicken you but I personally will no longer be lead one way or the other by the talking heads of our corrupt system. I will be voting on the issues that matter to me and who best represents them. 
     On a side note anyone out there who does not understand that  Soros is nothing less than a Nazi trying to change the world for the worse is a blind fool. This is an evil man, who did work for the Nazi’s that in itself should be enough to make you think twice. That he betrayed his own people & is now trying to corrupt our process should terrify you.  

So, everyone and their brother are hot and bothered over Donald Trump making some objectionable comments 11 years ago, in private, to another man. Of course the media is all over this, that is their MO. Ignore the 2000 emails released regarding real corruption and focus on Trump with feigned outrage because he used some dirty words & was lusting after a woman.News flash, if you are so hot and bothered about objectifying women then “Hey Fox”, yah better pull Empire off the TV because Lucious Lyon got a hummer on national TV from his assistant. Then his wife got hers from the UPS delivery guy. Of course we can include Sex in the City, and let’s not forget Katie Perry, Miley Cyrus, who regularly put out sexually explicit songs and videos. We won’t even touch on rap music or rock where unless you’re degrading women or killing people you’re not cool.
     “Am I the only one who sees the complete hypocrisy of any news outlet pretending outrage after ignoring the Bill Clinton Rapes 20 years ago? Or their covering for and dismissing of the many political sexual misconduct allegations of our politicians? “     Donald Trump is not unlike millions of other males in the world. He talks trash with other men, most of the male population does. Its only when their own dirty little secrets come out that the outrage gets brushed under the carpet. What is fundamentally wrong with the Republican party is that there is no actual loyalty unless you’re an elite. Democrats, I will give credit to they stick together and actually defend each other no matter how dirty one of them is.     Now here’s the reality check, does any of this crap change my vote? No it doesn’t. Why you may be asking yourself, because we need an ASSHOLE in chief who is able to deal with all the evil that is out there and Donald Trump has proven he is capable of doing so. He has my support because that is what we need.      Washington is corrupt, the DOJ is corrupt, the FBI is corrupt, the media is corrupt, and both political parties are as dirty as you can get. We have ISIS breathing down our necks, politicians pushing for a new world order that we are supposed to give up our sovereignty for. Illegal immigration is strangling everyone in this country, & our faith is under a genocidal attack. That includes, Christians, Buddhists, Jews & Mormons. There is a religious war going on and we need to wake up.
      I don’t care what Donald Trump said in private because the reality is when he got off that bus he was both courteous and a gentleman to the woman who escorted him inside.  He didn’t grope her, or force her to do anything. No one alive today is stupid enough not to know that when you’re a rich celebrity & at the time he was many temptations are readily available. No one is perfect, and to the Republican rats out there Ryan, Chaffetz, & others, your disloyal and weak and don’t deserve our support as voters. I know I won’t vote for a weak two-faced candidate and I hope you won’t either. But I will be voting for Donald Trump and Mike Pence. 

Its now or Never.. Attention All Trump Supporters Listen UP Its WAR! We call can see what is currently going in in Washington within the Establishment. They have decided to target our candidate, not just a couple of super-pacs but en-mass. So here is the way I see it and I hope you will agree and retweet this post to Donald & the Trump team so they know we are on their side. Retweet it over and over so we can let him know we support him. Never before in the history of this country has our liberty been more at risk. The Washington Establishment, Conservative Elites, Big donors, Lobbyist’s, Media, Mitt Romney, & Paul Ryan have all teamed up to pile drive our pick. Not fair odds by any standard which I think we can all agree. It’s time to untie Donald’s hands and let the dogs of war go after these jerks.   Time to unleash the dogs!So please let us all tell Donald it’s time to allow a super Pac to support him. We know there have been a few that he has asked to disband. It’s time for Donald’s friends to pull together for him to put their money where their mouth is and take out these jerks. There is no person on this earth who doesn’t have some kind of past, and I will be the first to admit Trump isn’t perfect but he is our candidate. Our choice. Cruz and Rubio have pulled dirty tricks, implying vulgar things. Things I know truthfully most men would not stand for without defending. Women well we don’t really care if someone questions our womanhood. That isn’t what politics is about and it shouldn’t be. Cruz is bad news, but let’s be honest here they aren’t going to allow him to have the nomination either. It is just how corrupt things are in Washington. You have had countless people come out and say the same thing. Time to wake up. So I am asking you to band together, to let Mr. Trump know unequivocally we want him to allow super Pac’s to support him. Allow them to do the dirty work and go after these dirty & corrupt system. We all know Trump is Trump he won’t bend a knee to any special interest. The man is just to ornery for that. But Cruz will, he is indebted up to his eyeballs. Please take a screen shot of this post, and send it to everyone on Trumps team. Tell him, “Time to unleash the dogs Sir. Time to give em hell as we take our country back. No mercy now.”   God Bless Our Vets & the ones in your life.

Trumpsters Alert!Rarely will I repost but in this instance I felt it was necessary to share this  so Trump supporters are aware of what is to come. I am shocked that this kind of behavior is even legal but apparently it is. It is voter fraud and corruption at its worst within our own system. So dont be suprised to see a barage of nasty attacks against Donald Trump and his positions.  Mitt Romney was apparently the first volley. Be prepared to be lied to so unless Trump says it himself dont buy into the lies they will begin to tell. So when your at an event and a protester stands up and starts screaming hate it very well could be an actress or actor who has been paid money to be there to hurt Trumps support. I have been voting for many years now and to hear news like this makes me sick. I cannot in good conscience support a party that would stoop to such dispicable tactics to win an election or harm one of their candidates. Their actions clearly show their desperation.Trump needs us the voters to stay strong in our support and make sure the word gets out. He has my vote now more then every, it is time to tear down the corrupt politicians that have stolen our country from us. Please read the below post which I felt needed to be shared and shared again. Please be sure to tweet it, post it to your Facebook pages and tell your friends who support Trump that the fight is truly on. Its time to clean house starting with our own party.         The post below was written by and comes from:

The Last Refuge


GOPe Announce Plans To Go “Full Mississippi” on Donald Trump To Destroy Him…. Posted on February 24, 2016 by sundanceWhen little known Chris McDaniel beat entrenched republican senator Thad Cochran in the first Mississippi primary of 2014 it triggered a series of events that became known simply as “Mississippi ’14“.The entrenched DC republican elite developed a plan to destroy McDaniel before the run-off primary.  They decided to call McDaniel a racist, pay for print and broadcast attack ads, request help from black Mississippi pastors, and pay Democrats, preachers and voters to vote in the run-off election.  Republicans in DC attacking a republican outsider.Their Machiavellian plan worked.  In the run-off Chris McDaniel again beat Thad Cochran with republican voters, but the paid-to-vote Democrats lifted Cochran back onto the throne in the elite Republican Chamber.Against the desperation of a South Carolina victory for Donald Trump, and now a Nevada victory for Donald Trump, the DC Republican team have re-enlisted the exact same players to roll out a similar nuclear attack approach against the ‘outsider republican’.Appearing on Bloomberg News the former Mississippi architect, Stuart Stevens, and Mississippi financier/bag-man, Henry Barbour, who carried out the Mississippi Strategy – openly admit their intent to use the same level of vitriol to remove Donald Trump.(L-R) Stuart Stevens – Mark Halprin – Henry BarbourSee the Video Here (at 23:10) as Stuart Stevens and Henry Barbour are assembled again to discuss the process of “taking down Trump”.  Stevens fully admits to the Mississippi 2014 strategy and how it will work in 2016 against Donald Trump.So how do they do it?  Simple, it’s war – a thermonuclear political war.  There are no boundaries, there are no rules, there is nothing too far, there is nothing held back.They run attack ads, they’ll shout names and make up malicious smears; they’ll follow the candidate around to make noise at rallies; they lie about anything and everything; they’ll pay anyone and everyone to assist, and they don’t care if the high-information voter knows what they are doing; it’s all part of the overall scorched earth plan.They’ll pay people to do and say anything, ANYTHING.  Winning is all that counts.  Destroying the opponent is all that matters. Every means justifies that end. Period.The GOPe have already hired actresses and actors to appear in the attack ads and to make personal appearances, as actors, during Trump events.   The hiring agency is Talent Direct Agency (TDA) – The actors and production teams are working out the script details right now.More than likely the construct begins tomorrow with the CNN debate.  Expect a full media assist from an ideological corporate media empire who also has skin in the game and corporate ownership who also see candidate Donald Trump as a risk.A thrilled attendee for the bloodbath, NRO’s Charles Cooke, puts it this way:[…]  Tomorrow night, as they stand on either side of Trump, Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz must find their resolve and all-but-machine-gun the man to the floor.This loser isn't even American or a citizen.Without breaks for water or silence for applause, they must explain that Trump is an entitled mess whose business record is so questionable that he managed to bankrupt a casino; that he is an unashamed fraud who didn’t even wait to be elected president before folding on Planned Parenthood and Obamacare, exactly like the “feckless” Congress he is running against; that he is feigning religiosity to appeal to people he believes are rubes; and, above all, that whatever he may be pretending now, he has spent a lifetime screwing the little guy.They must repeat verbatim his previous words on amnesty; they must outline in detail how his policies will make life worse for everyone; and they must point out that a Trump nomination designed to “mix things up” will result, eventually, in more of the same.In the meantime, conservatives who are not running for president must ensure that every spare dollar is spent attacking Trump. Melt down the fences if you have to; we need long-range bombers here.If Donald Trump can flood the airwaves with his nonsense, his opponents can counter it incessantly. And while they are at it, they can tie him up in court, just as he’s trying to do to Cruz. There are a good number of “just asking” questions ready to be put to them, among them “Trump’s mother was Scottish, can he really be president?” and “Trump ran a host of scams designed to rip off the poor; surely one of them would like to sue him?”Thus far, part of Trump’s media strategy has been to say something outrageous and then to move on before it can be rebutted or fact-checked. Why are his rivals not doing the same thing to him? Why, moreover, are the men in charge of the big guns all-but flirting with the snipers on the other side?  (read more)Perhaps now you can better appreciate why Mitt Romney is joining the effort and throwing anything against the wall to see if it will stick:

On Wednesday’s “Your World” on FOX News, former Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney told Neil Cavuto that Donald Trump’s tax returns may prove he hasn’t been honest about his money.Romney suggests the bombshell could include him lying about his wealth or that he has not made all those charity donations he claims to have made.(link)

You see, it doesn’t actually matter if there’s any truth to the claim, the goal is to create an absurd hurricane wind of inbound attacks driven with increasing ferocity by the corporate media who will demand the candidate to respond.In Mississippi 2014 Chris McDaniel was not racist, nor was there anything remotely linking him to anything racist; the goal is to push the candidate away from their campaigning, the truth is irrelevant.Once the GOPe force the candidate away from campaigning, then they begin selling the false story and using the actors/actresses, or preachers, to deliver an outcome.By the time the next debate on Fox comes around, well, it’ll be peak DEFCON-5 thermonuclear political button pushing because, quite simply, they have nothing to lose.

If you are still undecided about Trump or confused about what he has said. I recommend you watch this video. It is a breakdown of the media misquotes, and spin that has been attributed to Donald Trump.

Do the details matter? 

I’ve followed our elections for many years now, and the one thing that almost always amazes me is how quickly the media will turn on a elected President, who doesn’t do what they say they will. One reason they can point a finger at politicians is because of one tiny little question. “What are the details of your plan?”
I watched G.W.Bush give such details; Bill Clinton did so as well and least we not forget Obama our current commander and chief. Here’s the thing, no matter who you vote for, who you support being told the details right now is a big fat lie. Not one candidate can honestly give you real details and if they do so they are categorically lying to you the voter. Until we elect our candidate, the details don’t matter. They don’t matter right now because none have access to all of the facts, doesn’t matter if they are a governor, senator, or businessman. The actual reality is that no one has all the facts at this point. It is a deceitful leading question that our media likes to put out there to trap both candidates and promote their choices.
Do your homework if you don’t believe me. Once in office, some of our past presidents have kept their word, but the details have had to change and adjust because of the circumstances they walked into when taking office.
So when I hear a reporter demand details or a person at a rally ask for details for me I have more faith in the ones who don’t give me some big elaborate plan that will never be. I would rather a Donald Trump, who refuses to lie to the American people then give them a plan that isn’t based on fact. Smart people know that in tackling any task in life, you need all of the facts. So the next time a reporter asks a candidate how are you going to take out ISIS, or how are you going to fix the deficit listen carefully to what they aren’t saying because that is the candidate you want. Someone who has a goal, but who knows the way in which you can attack a problem that may repeatedly change before it can happen. I would rather have someone who will be honest enough not to lie to me. So for now candidates your position is what matters not the minutia details the media may use to trip you up. Don’t fall for their game knowing your intent is what we need. Knowing how you feel about position matters, not the tiny details that would make any one of you a liar.
Please be sure to vote, the only way change can happen is if we do our part. As always hug a vet today, be sure to support those who have served to protect us. 

Trump in Vermont
     Donald Trump stormed the barn in Vermont last night by holding a rally in Bernie Sanders stomping ground. It is of little surprise that Bernie Protesters would show up to vent their spleen during his rally or that they would then be expelled from the event. While everyone else is scrambling for position in Iowa Trump not only redirected the attention to Vermont but he also managed to supersede Obama’s town hall on gun control. If that isn’t brilliance I don’t know what is.      Despite the many interruptions anyone who watched and listened could clearly see Trump kept his cool even going so far as to praise the protesters for having the gumption to show up for their cause. Unfortunately many of the protesters chose to use profanity swearing at Trump and the pro Trump crowd as they were escorted out. He did in fact say keep their coats, (jokingly) but I wouldn’t have blamed them if they did considering the people who came to actually support Trump who didn’t get in and were out in the cold. Sometimes the little lessons can be kinder. Just saying.     A word of advice to the Bernie supporters, right now your fight isn’t with Trump it’s with Hillary Clinton who your candidate is currently fighting against. You might make a more profound impact if you actually showed up and protested against Hillary or even Bill Clinton rallies. Just saying, a little foresight people.             No matter who your candidate is, it will be interesting to see how things roll out in Iowa and New Hampshire. I think the media and political elites will be disappointed once again just as they were as Donald Trump rose in the polls. Americans are sick and tired of both the media and political elites twisting facts. I was surprised when Greta tried to twist the question asked of Trump by the Washington Post to make it sound like he was mudslinging against Ted Cruz. Shame on you Greta bad reporting.
     So here is my advice to all, if you are experienced with the Iowa caucuses and are voting for Donald Trump take the time to help those new Trump supports get it right. If Trump wins we all win, it’s as much about we the American people as it is about Trump.      
Side note: What is a little sad to me is the majority of protesters where college age students supporting Berine. As parents that should scare us more then anything. Our young people want the socialist hand outs  and think that is how the world works. Grownups already know the pitfalls of socialism and the damage it truly causes. America was built on the idea that if you work hard you can get ahead, not socialism. Those freedoms are what we should be fighting for, they are the same freedoms that allow you to protest.

 
   What no one can deny whether liberal or conservative is that we already have the laws on the books to address gun violence. The real issue is enforcement of the existing laws. So regardless of which party you favor this is a simple fact.          
      What is and should be at issue for all Americans today is why aren’t these laws being enforced? What possible reason would our current president have for not pushing to have department of Justice take action using the laws already on the books? For that matter, why haven’t Hillary, Sanders, Rubio, Bush, Cruz, Paul, Kasich, Christie, Huckabee, or the rest of the establishment politicians pushed for the same? The only two candidates on the current political field who have a leg to stand on are Carson & Trump.
     For a sitting Governor to not use the existing federal laws to address gun violence is inexcusable. The same is true for the Senators that are currently in office and running for President. The truth is politicians can spew statistic, and rant at how much more experience they have then anyone else, but if they don’t use the tools that are available, then they have already failed and do not deserve anyone’s vote.
     I believe in our 2nd amendment rights, that right is a part of our earliest inception as a country and people should remember that. If you don’t think this right is important, look into our history, the moment a civilization loses its right to protect itself it begins to fall quickly under tyranny. Just look at Hitler, Stalin and other societies where dictators rule.
     What makes our country great and unique is our diversity. We aren’t just one group we are a grouping of many from many lands. We are a culture of people who are willing to fight to protect each other. It is why we have a military that is diverse. It is why all live matter in this country.
      Ideals are a wonderful thing to have but if you focus only on the idea's, you will give up your freedom without a fight. To passively sit on the sidelines ridiculing others who don't agree is not very Liberal. For some, that is a life choice, but for most of us it isn’t a right we want to relinquish. There is a reason there were Tory’s and Rebels during the American Revolution. Tory’s were fine even happy under England’s rule, but the Rebels were the ones who created this country and fought for our freedom. Rebels were referred to as upstarts, traitors, rabble-rousers and discontents.Perhaps it is time to remember that.
     There is nothing wrong with being a Rebel, in fact, George Washington, Jefferson, & Paul Revere were Rebels, frankly I think thats  excellent company to stand with.  

The Outsider 
    The third GOP debate was a shining example of what happens when journalism goes awry. Journalists are supposed to be objective, removed from personal opinion, or political leanings. To report, not create news. From the onset CNBC baited, goaded, and tried to demoralize the ten candidates that appeared on the stage.
 

   Typically they haven’t stopped their hate fest over Donald Trump, and that isn’t truly surprising. Take a moment and ask yourself, though, why the establishment is going after Donald Trump so fiercely? Why members of the GOP are spending millions on negative ads? If he truly is an outsider candidate or the  joke they all pretend he is, then how could he be any kind of threat to them? After all, they are the establishment, those who know so much more than the rest of us. At least that is what they keep telling us.
     Whether you like him or not Donald Trump has brought some major issues to the attention of the voting public, from the mess our country is in over illegal immigration, to the danger of lobbyists and special interest (Super PACs) that back and eventually control candidates. He is correct to remind us that we are a nation of Laws ones we chose to follow. So why is it so politically incorrect to state the obvious? Why is it wrong to say that yes if you want to come here great but do so legally. Why wouldn’t anyone want the criminal element (from many nations) that have infiltrated this country illegally gone?
     Of the Republican candidates, I have watched with interest as they have tried to dismiss or ignore valid issues. I’ve had a few favorites including Huckabee, Kasich, Carson, Cruz, and Trump. Kasich lost me during the third debate when he chose to act like a petulant school boy pointing at his ideas claiming the other candidates weren’t dealing with reality. It was kind of sad and painful to watch, and frankly I expected better of him.
Rubio for all of his youth is no different from Bush, the fact that he was endorsed by the Florida Sun Sentential when he ran for the office of Senator and now doesn’t want to do the job he was hired for should give anyone serious pause. Jeb Bush was correct when he said you were hired to do a job, and you need to do it. He is the only candidate that truly lacks the life experience to do the job effectively. What happens if he becomes the President and decides it’s too hard, and he doesn’t want to do it? I know that didn’t give me a warm and fuzzy feeling.
     The real winner of the debate was Huckabee I can only urge the other candidates to emulate his ability to stick togeather. He showed himself to be a gentleman when asked a completely inappropriate question.
     If you look up on that stage another thing that should be coming clearer. Trump isn’t fighting but is uniting with the other candidates. You can see it in the subtle wink he gave Carson after slamming Kasich. In the kind words of Huckabee, even Cruz and Christie clearly respect Donald Trump.
     When he says, he is a unifier he isn’t joking. He showed us by taking on CNBC to shorten the debate to 2 hours with Carson. He called the debate what is was before it even began which was unfair. He made the one point he set out to do during the debate, which was about the Super PACs that control many of the other candidates. Hopefully, you too noticed the pregnant silence after those words left his lips. Super PACs are bad news, we cry and complain about our system not working well this is part of why it doesn’t work.
     There is a reason the GOP is desperate to get Trump out of the race, and a reason that establishment candidates are desperate to dismiss him.
     The great men in history (Political) where opinionated, narcissistic, groundbreaking Mavericks, they were willing to make sacrifices and upset the weak establishment. That is why history remembers them and why they where great.

Donald Trump     For several months now I have watched like many Americans as Donald Trump has stormed the banks of the Republican National Party in his bid to become our next president. One would have to be blind, deaf, and dumb not to see that the media is not his friend. Although they do avidly engage, as those who believe in his message, their biased contempt for him is unapologetic and unprofessional. Rule number one for any journalist is to report the facts and do not take sides, yet this is exactly what they have done.
     Eager for the revenue he and his events bring, the media greedily hurries to follow his every move and then sits back and criticizes him with scathing commentary that would have a Diva bawling for mercy. Donald Trump is many things; admittedly not all good, thin-skinned however is NOT one of them.
You know the mean girl,eyebrow raised and I got ya look.  Always has her own agenda
and wants to hit below the belt.From the onset, he was mocked, ridiculed by the very journalists who have put both microphone and camera in his face for the past 30 years. The media has steadfastly refused to treat him as a candidate despite the tens of millions of dollars he has lost in personal endorsements and business revenue due to his entering this race for president. During the first debate with a decidedly “Mean Girl” look, Megan Kelly asked by implication about his negative stand on women and his ongoing fight with Rosie O’Donnel would make him a good president. Trump answered and then shot back via Twitter after the debate fighting back in one of the few methods available to him for an inappropriate question. (Not a bad move.)
     Despite the media’s ongoing mockery, critical reporting, and contempt, Donald Trump has thus far prevailed. Gaining supporters across the country from people who are fed up with opinion journalism and a president who has openly apologized to the world for no good reason. Between Hillary and her multitude of scandals that have been wiped under the carpet, and an overabundance of executive orders by the current president it is little wonder that Trump stepped up to the plate. To be blunt, we need someone with a pair in the white house who is willing to fight for all of us.
     No man is perfect, but Trump has brought to the front the real issues that are on all of our minds. As parents, voters, and as citizens of this country we all can see that things need to change. Donald Trump has an actual plan, not the same old rhetoric that comes out of career politicians like Bush, Christie, and Rubio. Jeb Bush stood on a stage in front of 24 million viewers and said, “My brother kept us safe.” I disagree.
     Donald Trump has it right in this you have only to listen to his words. The then president handled a bad situation; he didn’t protect us because the reality is 9/11 happened. People died in New York, and on two separate planes that crashed because of terrorists. As someone who grew up 20 minutes from New York, the attack of 9/11 devastated us all and for many it was much more personal.
      History has told us at least 6 of these terrorists were here illegally, because of laws we chose not to enforce. That isn’t a reflection on how the aftermath was handled, or how President Bush dealt with the events as they unfolded. I do think he did us all proud, but more importantly we as a country pulled together and helped each other. We wept, we prayed, and we rebuilt making sure to remember those who perished. That is what makes America great, we know how to pull together.
     With all the unrest and damage, our current president has created in the Middle East and here at home we are at a precept looking over the cliff at this very moment. We need someone who isn’t afraid to take control, to be strong. If we are going to get through this and survive as a country, it is imperative we make some hard choices. We need someone like Donald Trump, and I say that as an opinion. What we don’t need is someone who is going to drag us right back into the same political elitist mess we must all currently deal with as those in Washington bleed our country dry for their personal gains.
     Trump was smart enough to use the web to reach Americans. Like a chess player, he has made smart moves minimizing his spending to reach his goal. That for me is someone I will sit up and notice. I can only hope that the News Media will grow up and stop being so thin skinned, the world we all live in is not the fantasy they keep pushing. Instead of acting like a group of church ladies scandalized by every word that comes out of Trump’s mouth try doing your job. Report the news without your opinion or your company’s political leanings.
     The world is much harsher than that and candidates like Donald Trump & Ben Carson understand the truth or they wouldn’t be running for president. People don’t turn away from what they love to do something that is going to be hell on earth for them unless there is a greater reason. Perhaps it is time for the media to put their big boy pants on and admit that these candidates are here to stay and need to be, because the status quo won’t work anymore.

     Trumps popularity isn't deminishing. Despite the media and the GOP, in fact its growing.
