Many of the Republicans who will be voting for Donald Trump next month do not like him but they despise Hillary Clinton even more. He certainly wasn't my first choice. I wanted Rick Perry and when he dropped out, I was sure the winner would be either Ted Cruz or Marco Rubio. But as the primary process continued and polling became the operative tool, I began to suspect that the whole thing was rigged. When Gov. John Kasich came in as a late candidate that pushed Perry into the second tier debate group, my suspicions were confirmed that the media was promoting Donald Trump for the GOP nomination.
I still thought Trump as president was a horrible joke and it wasn't until I heard from my brother Joe, who is battling fourth stage cancer, that I started opening my mind to the possibility that Trump was somehow meant to be.
Joe is a former Marine being treated at a Veteran's Hospital in the state of Washington. He spoke passionately to me about how Trump was talking about every thing that needed to be said: Obamacare, the VA scandal, IRS corruption, criminal illegals, a corrupt DOJ and FBI covering up for Obama and Hillary. The Democrats and our president were afraid to use the word Islamic jihadists when naming terrorists; and he liked the fact that Donald Trump said that global warming is a hoax while Obama was claiming this was a bigger threat than terrorism. Mexico has a wall yet only Trump insists that we have one too, Joe continued. I had to beg him to slow down and take a deep breath because it was affecting his chemo and heart rate....

The First Wave of the Tsunami the liberals are trying to wish away just started lapping on the shore . . .
Just a single drop of water being joined by millions of drops of water will soon inundate this election simply because there are enough patriots (including democrats) that hate Hillary Clinton MORE than they hate Donald Trump.
You libs that like to read here, you all know that this wave is coming . . . I’d take cover. Better yet, vote Trump in so that you can tell your grandkids that although you proved you were not a racist by voting in 0bama, you are not a socialist by saving America at its last gasp of freedom.
It will be a nice story, and your grand kids will thank you for saving their country.
Sad thing is this piece of #### paper that my father hated and i have hated for over 40 years endorsed clinton..
Staten Island is SO conservative but like the liberals do, they bought the media and put a stranglehold on it.
this paper is responsible for more disasters than i can tell here.
“It will be a nice story, and your grand kids will thank you for saving their country.”
Half of them won’t have grandkids, because they paid to have their kids torn in pieces and run down a sink.
Truth rises to the top!...( it always does)
That’s the thing about Trump. He’s not nuanced like Cruz and that confused the daylights out of serious rock-ribbed conservatives.
B ut he is in synchcronisity with most of today’s potential voters, not just lkely voters.
If they just give him a chance he wins most of them over and he also softens the resistance of uber-cynics.

Aye. Spot on. My journey was pretty similar
This was a good commentary.
My only beef with it is her assertion that the media backed Trump’s nomination.
I have no idea where she came up with that, but it is totally false.
Trump got no help from any quarter. NONE!
With Hillary it will be - "this is the end, there is no more"
