Is Trump going to deputize possies to go out and deport illegals? No. Do I expect some numbskull who lets an illegal felon go to be called out on the carpet? Absolutely.
Do I expect Trump to only nominate SCOTUS justices based upon overturning that awful decision of Rowe v Wade? No. Do I expect him to pick some pretty smart people who would actually consider the constitution in their decisions? Yes, I do. Do I expect him to nominate some buddies for various cabinet posts? Yes. Do I expect him to demand that they actually do the job they were hired for? Yes.
You know, compared to the guy running ICE who told congress that until congress passes comprehensive immigration reform (codeword: Amnesty for everyone!), that they won't bother deporting illegals...
I'd love Cruz to win the presidency. But I certainly wouldn't object to Trump winning. Compared to the people who brought us such wonderful things as Homeland Security, shoe inspections, mandatory ID to fly in a plane, but no id to vote, and the rest of the nonsense, I think he could easily handle the job. Will I always agree with him? No. Will I likely agree with him more often than anyone since Reagan? Probably.
The media has determined certain standards that presidential candidates must meet - an Ivy league education, a long career without a real job, and a strong track record of running whenever the media brings up any issue. We've tried nominating based upon the media's standards; maybe, just maybe, it's time we start doing something just a little different.
You’re right.
And it’s time to start nudging the nation back in line.
We’re not going to win by electing more RINOs who flip on us the moment they get into office.
If we can get an honest, economically conservative in office, we’ll do better. It’ll be a great step in the right direction and we might get the opportunity to show that conservative principles do work.
This is why it’s so important that Jeb doesn’t get in. He’s just a Leftist Lite. Same for Bush. So when crony capitalism fails, the public says, “See! Conservationism fails!”
That’s NOT conservationism, darn it. That’s not even capitalism.
