I’m just not confident of his aegis in that duty described in the reference.

It doesn't say they'll choose the right one, but I'd say Trump's election would make a pretty definitive case for the people's exercise of that passage.

“ONE word from Trump and the nation’s 6 million plus guns would be at the ready, no longer an internet statistic.”...

I think you have grossly underestimated the amount of fire power “We, The People” have. I also believe that any armed conflict will have to be quick and decisive since most who are armed have minimal amounts of ammunition to support any insurrection. The best way to kill a snake is to cut off the head. You may not get a second chance.

These donors must have inherited their dough.

No one with the brains to earn it would back Romney.

Trump must tread carefully because the MSM developed an immune response after Reagan.

They did a post-mortem and blamed themselves for not taking Reagan out and creating a two-decade interruption in the “transformation of America”. They’ve taken steps to ensure that never happens again.

Exhibit A is the absolute, literal early destruction of Sarah Palin.

Here's the difference: Sarah didn't have the GOP establishment or really any money to defend and attack.

Trump doesn't have the gop establishment, but he has tons of money and all it can buy.

Sarah wasn't used to the viciousness of the press. Trump has lived with it for decades and learned how to use it for his benefit.

I don’t disagree at all. What we are faced with today as a result of GOPe’s treachery and Obama’s usurpation of the rule of law is a complete lack of faith in government as it now stands. You can see this in Trump’s numbers.

Trump is a different bird. He might evolve over time into a more conservative, but right now he’s an unpolished man of action, whom we’ve NEVER seen before as president.

George Washington, Andrew Jackson, Teddy Roosevelt

If someone decides they won’t understand, there’s nothing you can do to stop them.

Another difference... Trump is head Banana. Palin was forced to do as told...and looking back, it’s obvious she was held in contempt by her assigned handlers.
