In these times, I can think of no one better suited to serve as our President.”

He used to be a regular columnist, didn’t he?

It’s been a long LONG time since I’ve heard from Col. North.

I’m looking forward to some great moves. Hope he delivers.

The comments on Twitter by the Lefties are instructive about why exactly Republicans and conservatives are prosecuted for phony "felonies" by the Uniparty/Establishment.

Basically, it's "Felon Felon Felon Felon Felon" all day long.

Did it to Diesh D'Souza and James O'Keefe.

I checked out Democratic Underground's reaction. In a nutshell:

"Traitor! Traitor! Traitor! Traitor!"

The Left plays the Long Game.

That's why there were NO felons in the Clinton or 0bama administrations - despite the fact that there were literally DOZENS of unprosecuted felons in the Clinton and 0bama administrations.

Note how the Democrats & their Media Death Star always "get busy" felonizing Republicans/conservatives when they lose power in The Swamp.

Had this been a regular “news” article, the obligatory “controversial” descriptor would’ve been included in the headline.

He should be cradling an AR-15 over his arm when he gets sworn in.

A traditional war hero, unlike McCain, who received his fruit salad through his incompetence. It’s real injustice that the genuine war hero was made a felon, while the fake is getting lionized in the media. The word “hero” implies not just bravery, but the achievements beyond those of mere mortals. McCain’s principal achievements were crashing his plane and waiting out his confinement as a POW. We can all feel sorry for McCain, but how is he a role model?

I don’t have anything against Ollie, but this selection will bring some bad press to the NRA on top of the usual bad press.
