I watched this magnificent youngster perform her two "Stove Pipe" runs...just simply awesome.

POTUS, Trump....this is a family that should be celebrated in the White House in the near future.

    WORD FOR THE DAY(2/12/18)Blench • Definition • : to draw back or turn aside from lack of courage : flinch • Did You Know? • If a stranger approaches you in a dark alley, it might cause you to blench. Do you flinch or turn white? Actually, you could do both, and both would be considered blenching because there are two separate verbs spelled "blench" in English. The blench that means "to flinch" derives from blencan, an Old English word meaning "to deceive." The blench meaning "to turn white" is an alteration of blanch, from the French adjective blanc...
  • Vanity - Trump....Stand fast on Immigration....Democrats in the corner.

    02/12/2018 4:36:13 AM PST · by JLAGRAYFOX · 6 replies
    POTUS, Trump...you hold all the immigration cards in your hands, use that leverage to get and gain all you want to be successful in Controlling Illegals, Druggies, Cartels, Slave traffic, etc. Get all "Four" levels of your plan in the immigration bill. If not, veto any bill that reaches your desk. Give the Democrats nothing...they have no leverage whatsoever, and they never intended doing anything for the DACA "Kiddies". Like "Flounder" in Animal House, they (Hispanics) got screwed. They trusted their "Dummie" selves. The folks that are not-too-bright, slow thinkers, are millions of Hispanics, who just got royally screwed by...
  • Vanity - "The majority of the American people get it".

    02/10/2018 8:21:32 AM PST · by JLAGRAYFOX · 11 replies
    Folks, remember, back in October, 2016, when NBC tried to finish off Donald J. Trump by using the "Bush" video tape, which outlined the "DJT" supposed sex antics. Well, right or wrong, true or untrue, at the end of the day, no one cared. It probably did not change one vote. Same deal with Bill Clinton. Fact and truth is, Bill Clinton was the "Pig Man, Woman User/Abuser of the Century". Shucks, Clinton was impeached...too!!! Bottom line...no one, the voters cared. In fact, when the Clintons left the office of POTUS, they were quite popular with the American people and...

    This morning on some postings the names of Obama & Clinton are being brought into the light of day as the "real" power players they are, in the "Trump, Russia, Russia" , fake news caper. The DOJ/FBI players are nothing but the small Chess, Pawn/Rooks in this episode. The real criminal culprits include, Obama, Clinton, Kerry, Holder & Lynch, etc. Here's the gig....while both Obama & Clinton were so sure that they would defeat Donald J. Trump, they felt a bit insecure, and really needed an "insurance policy" to prevent any chance whatsoever that existed that would allow Trump to...

    America hater, (now silent) Obama lives on in the demented, body & mind of Democrat political twerp, California, Left-Wing, Congressman, Adam (Saul Alinsky) Schiff...who, like Obama, always leads from behind. The ever laggard, Schiff, drags up a Democrat minority memo, supposedly an answer and rebuttal to the now ultra famous "Nunes Memo". Shucks, Adam, my boy, it is too late. Your memo has to be voted on by the full committee, and after it is approved for release, it must undergo a "five day" vetting & approval process from POTUS, Donald J. Trump, exactly in the same fashion as the...

  • Vanity - Trump garners 47.9 million USA viewers for SOTU address.

    It is estimated that POTUS, DJT gathered 47.9 million "USA" viewers for his first SOTU speech on Tuesday evening. That number, by the way, does not include foreign country viewers across the world or the hundreds of live feeds, of C-Span, Right Side Broadcasting, etc. The true estimate number is calculated to be somewhere between 55-60 million viewers across the world and on "Live Screen". That is an enormous "successful" number, that does include those folks that listened to the SOTU on radio, etc., across the world. Now.....I have searched the entire internet to find the "massive numbers" (only kidding)...

Only our gracious Lord residing in God's heavenly paradise knows how this will play out. Will Kennedy & Waters draw millions of "Trump Hater Lunatics", to cheer, rant & rave over their insane rants & raves. I suspect, not. Will the "DACA Kiddies" go wild with hate in the Senate gallery and interrupt out POTUS, Trump from speaking. I suspect these "Kiddies" will do all they can to tear down...

    ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ric·tus ˈriktəs/ noun noun: rictus; plural noun: rictuses a fixed grimace or grin. "Ned's smile had become a rictus of repulsion" Origin: early 19th century: from Latin, literally ‘open mouth,’ from rict- ‘gaped,’ from the verb ringi . A rictus is a frozen, fake smile. If the star of a play finds herself overcome by stage fright, she might forget her lines and stand, trembling, her mouth twisted into a rictus. The word rictus most often describes a smile that doesn't convey delight or happiness — instead, it's a kind of horrified, involuntary grin. Your smile might freeze on...
