Two months later, Trump is doing much better than I thought he would do.
Trump told me much of what I wanted to hear in his Atlanta speech last night, I only heard about the first half. But, there is so much seduction that ends with unwanted pregnancy and getting kicked to the curb. Will Trump be the real deal, or will he fail us in any one of many possible ways? There's a lot at stake here, like one to three Supreme Court nominations and a great fork in the road for the nation. If the Democrats get it because the vote is split or enough disgusted conservatives stay home instead of voting, we become a bizarre fusion of the Sierra Club and UC Berkely with Stalinist / Robespierre authoritarianism; a progressive, sado-masochistic Pee Wee Herman's "playhouse" with all the self sacrifice and fiduciary restraint of Greece. San Francisco's private jet liberalism, Sacramento progressive lunacy and Democrat driven Los Angeles county poverty goes national on Jerry Brown's high speed crazy train to nowhere. To what degree will the progressive movement eat its own children along with everyone else should America fall to the far left? We'll be done if another Democrat gets the White House this next election.

Trump has at least the managerial experience to do the job. He's got financial savvy, and he's more of a public figure than Obama was when he made his first shot at the whitehouse. Personally I don't care if he's a volatile, foul mouthed, rich kid with no government experience. I WANT CHANGE, and the change we got with obama wasn't change at all.; it was more of the same corrupt BS we've had for years, with less restraint. We ain't gettin' any change with Rubio, Bush, walker, romney, bloomberg, fiorina, or anyone else I can see yet, and Cruz hasn't lit a fire big enough to cause enough people to warm to him.
These other republicans REFUSE to accept our message. The dems refuse to acknowledge there's a problem. They are just not ever going to let us in. I say Trump is the revolt we need at present, for if we don't, the republicans are just going to be covered over with immigrant voters in a couple more elections anyway. |

I have not had any internet for over three weeks. I went through withdrawals.
I have watched Trump speak and agree with most if not all that he says. But he needs to tone down the bragging a bit, it's way over the top for too long and could sour some people away from the message. I hope he has holding power for the long run, because what else is left on both sides is pretty much worthless to extremely bad. Cruz is the only one slightly acceptable, but not much on the strong deliverance. He's more of the stately sort some say they expect of a president. Me, I want BALLS AND DELIVERANCE. |

I didn't think it could happen, but Trump took it tonight in Indiana. I now find myself on the other side of the divide: we've had eight years of Frank Marshall Davis' political apprentice in the White House - essentially a communist who isn't done tearing apart the nation, and the contest now is about whether that presidency has a third term along with maybe four Supreme court seats with progressive socialism or if we have a chance through the capitalist. The stay at home, never vote for that candidate will be a default vote for the greater of evils.

I would have liked to have seen the faces of Clinton, Obama, Elizabeth Warren and Harry Reid at the very second the reality set in. Arrogant smirk evaporated, superiority complex deflated, presumption crushed. Not even "Baghdad Josh" Earnest can spin this one. "The Rev" Al Sharpton is giving it his race baiting best, however. What a hypocritical, extortionist, frickin' phoney.

I wonder if reality is even an achievable concept for them.
