Americans must ask themselves this question regarding Trump:
Would a President Trump be any worse than what America has had to endure under the Clintons, Bushes or Obama?
I think not.

I prefer to call it waking up from an obama nightmare.

He seems to be more benevolent in character than most of the authority figures of history who turned out to be stubborn problems.

People have a tendency to distrust authority because it so often can go wrong and then we get evil like a boss.

But maybe, coming out of the miasma of Barack Obama, a Donald Trump is the best we can do. The people might not be ready for a better vision, which would entail a worship of God at something close to His actual claims. A vision like that would be necessary to make something like, say, a Cruz presidency work. Otherwise we have the same herd of cats we had before, and a frustrated president.

Trump couldn’t screw up the country any more than could a professional politician.

Actually B. Hussein O-bummer was a professional political animal.

Primarily at the state and local levels. And how did that translate into being successful as president?

How about we get someone in who is not a professional political animal for once?

Because the presidency is not an office for amateurs like I said.

Watching that version of Tombstone is a guilty pleasure of mine, and the cable networks enable my habit.

Three summers ago, one of the places we visited on vacation was Tombstone. After enjoying the "ghost tour", I took a picture of my son next to the building where Morgan was killed.

The picture had an orb a few feet about my son, and I went back to analyze the surroundings. No matter the angle I looked at, there was no orb to be found. I'm not saying it made a believer of me, but I saw other pictures taken by my sister that had a variety of orbs in them.

Plenty of Republicans were once liberals; plenty of others embrace the concept of being "born again." Trump changes his tune and denies his previous statements at every debate; it's no surprise to find he's been doing so for years.

Trump praises Ted Cruz

Weird. Physically we might look for sun/lighting and lens effects which can produce artifacts in photos.

But there are such things as evil angels. They can wreak mischief, trying to get people curious about them. A milquetoast take on God can’t do anything about them, but God never presented Himself as milquetoast. God is nuts about us.

Well meow. I was referring to problems that Ted Cruz might encounter. Should the country not be ready for his point of view yet.

“Just as we cheer anyone who takes clear and confident aim at the playground bully”

I’d love to send this Chris Taylor person a quarter so he can go out and buy himself a clue.

Taylor and his fellow PC SJWs *ARE THE PLAYGROUND BULLIES*. Trump’s support derives in large part because he’s seen as taking “clear and confident aim” at them.

“With Trump in the White House, a Republican-controlled Congress would be able to pass into law any legislation it wants: Abolishing departments, ending environmental protection, re-instituting torture, sending troops against ISIS, banning Muslims from U.S. entry and observing Muslim citizens, establishing Trump’s Deportation Force, building the boondoggle of a “big, beautiful wall” while attempting to coerce an ally into paying for it.”

Yeh ain’t it great? :-)

“Sleep-walkers” doesn’t quite describe what I’ve seen of Trump rally attendees.

I’m more worried about Cankles Commando Clinton wanting to take things from me for my own good, letting in hordes of Illegal Democrat Voters and having to listen to her for the next four or eight Years carrying on the Obama Regime’s task of dismantling the Republic.

Yea, so where's the problem?

Primarily at the state and local levels.

Like everybody else that is running right now.

And how did that translate into being successful as president?

He is an extraordinarily successful president. He got done what he wanted done. That you or I do not approve or like what he is doing does not make him unsuccessful.

Because the presidency is not an office for amateurs like I said.

By that logic we should vote for Hillery because she at least has lived in the White House.

For everyone else it is pure amateur hour.

“Trump just let the Media know who their daddy is.”

Refusing to attend may be an act of courage scheduling an event using veterans as props in competition is perfidy.
