President Trump is Making America Great Again in spite of liberals and leftists.

"But how do we calculate the crudity and malevolence of those who made the tape and then released it in the hope that it would destroy a political rival?" = Kimball

Perhaps an even more pertinent question might be, "But how do we calculate the crudity and malevolence of those who" published a private conversation, and then made it broadly available and repeated over and over again, thus polluting the minds of children and youth who heard it?

My new tag line!

Long before I had the right to vote, I was aware of US politics jumping off the rails. (thank you, pops) I voted for Reagan (first term) when I cast my first Presidential ballot.

The knowledge of the swamp I have learned since then has totally convinced me Reagan was a GREAT leader of the USA with a patriotism and vision - I see many similar attributes in President Trump that I intuitively sensed in Reagan ca. 1980...

MAGA!

[Slyfox]

Donald Trump is not an ideologue, but he is patriotic.

And he respects patriotic ideologues and listens to them for advice.

[jazusamo]

Bump!

[jazusamo]

Amen...Makes a great tag line.

[familyop]

So far, he’s much better than Reagan. Hopefully, the Administration and enough Republicans in Congress will follow through with Trump’s work and get it done.

[jazusamo]

MAGA!

You have a very good tag line with a good message.

Thanks!

Further thoughts:

Hillary touts her Methodist upbringing and spiritual influence thereof as credentials for national leadership, yet publicly identified and condemned millions of her fellow citizens to be "deplorables" and "unredeemable," might one logically conclude that her Methodist "influence" disallowed her from extending that kind of forgiveness and redemption to political opponents who might fit the one described below?

Presume not that I am the thing I was;
For God doth know, so shall the world perceive,

That I have turn'd away my former self.

Yep, when Hillary brings up her Methodist upbringing I kinda cringe and put it in the same category as many if not most of her self aggrandizing statements, flat out lies.

[maddogtiger]

Let us pray that he does not make a bone head appoitment like Sandra Dey O’Conner.

True... Trump is today’s Gipper...

True! (Can’t beat the Gospel of John!) but I do switch around sometimes. :-) I will probably go back to John 8:32 after a while...I just REALLY liked this!

Probably because I hate the way the left is trying to destroy our HISTORY.

[laplata]

“Probably because I hate the way the left is trying to destroy our HISTORY”.

And CULTURE. They want to erase everything “American” and leave no American identity.

Before long they will want a new flag.

Yes. that it why I think the quote is so important! :-)

[laplata]

Yes.

[conservatism_IS_compassion]

There is a certain kind of politician who likes high taxes, partly because he likes big government, which is the natural result of high taxes, partly because he wants most people (not his tribe, of course) to have as little money as possible. The poorer people are, the more dependent they are. Politicians of a certain stripe want people to be dependent on the government, i.e., on them and the instruments they control.

The more skeptical you are about society, the less skeptical you are of government, and vice versa.

Make America Great Again means to allow American society to be as great as God intended it to be.

Note that “be” is a misnomer, because process is reality. What is meant is “be in the process of becoming greater. We don’t want “quality medical care” which is predicated on the status quo relation of supply and demand. We want continuous improvement, such that our grandchildren’s medical care is as much better than our medical care as our medical care is better than our grandparent’s medical care.
