All day I read ‘Free Republic’, ‘Breitbart’, and ‘The Conservative Treehouse’, whenever I find something interesting, I post it to FB, either an article, video, or photos. Its driving my leftist nieces crazy, but that’s a good thing...
LOL! That’s exactly what my sister does. Drives our FB leftist nieces and nephew crazy. At least they’re able to learn something, if they pay attention.
I call her a “cyber missionary”.
Is this too long to post on Facebook?
WHEN AN ULTRA, ULTRA LIBERAL MAGAZINE SUCH AS THE NEW
YORKER ...WRITES AN ARTICLE SUCH AS THIS...YOU REALIZE
AMERICA IS FINALLY WAKING UP TO THE CORRUPTION LIES
, INCOMPETENCE AND IGNORANCE OF Washington.
This is absolutely brilliant. A surprising article from
the New Yorker Magazine. This magazine has always been a
left wing apologizer so this article is even more amazing.
Don’t pass it up.
The author. Roy Kaplan, is the political correspondent for Bloomberg and wrote extensively about Obama even before he was nominated.
“Who is Donald Trump?” The better question may be, “What
is Donald Trump?”
The answer? A giant middle finger from average Americans
to the political, academic and media establishment.
Some Trump supporters have simply had it with the Demo-
socialists and the “Republicans In Name Only” class of
people. They knew there wasn’t a dime’s worth of
difference between Hillary Rodham and Jeb Bush, and only a
few cents worth between Rodham and the other GOP
candidates.
Ben Carson was not an “establishment” candidate, but the
Clinton machine would pulverize Carson; and the somewhat
rebellious Ted Cruz (justifiably so) would have been tied
up with natural born citizen lawsuits (as might Marco
Rubio). The Trump supporters figure they may as well have
some fun tossing Molotov cocktails at Wall Street and
Georgetown while they watch the nation collapse. Besides
- lightning might strike, Trump might get elected, and he
might actually fix a few things. Stranger things have
happened (the nation elected an [islamo-]Marxist in 2008
and Bruce Jenner now wears designer dresses.)
Millions of conservatives are justifiably furious. They
gave the Republicans control of the House in 2010 and
control of the Senate in 2014, and have seen them govern
no differently than Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. Yet those
same voters are supposed to trust the GOP in 2016? Why?
Trump did not come from out of nowhere. His candidacy was
created by the last six years of Republican failures.
No reasonable person can believe that any of the
establishment candidates [dems or reps] would have slashed
federal spending, rein in the Federal Reserve, cut
burdensome business regulations, reform the tax code, or
eliminate useless federal departments (the Departments of
Education, Housing and Urban Development, Energy, etc.).
Even Ronald Reagan was unable to eliminate the Department
of Education. (Of course, getting shot at tends to make a
person less of a risk-taker.) No reasonable person can
believe that any of the nation’s major problems will be
solved by Rodham as she is simply the third verse of
Obama’s waning swan song.
Many Americans, and especially Trump supporters, have had
it with:
· Anyone named Bush
· Anyone named Clinton
· Anyone who’s held political office
· Political correctness
· Illegal immigration
· Massive unemployment
Our out of control federal spending
Our National Debt that exceeds our GDP (Can you say
Greece?)
· Phony “official” unemployment and inflation figures
· Welfare waste and fraud
Money being spent on Illegal immigrants
· People faking disabilities to go on the dole
· VA waiting lists
· TSA airport groping
· ObamaCare
· The Federal Reserve’s money-printing schemes
· Wall Street crooks like Jon Corzine
· Michelle Obama’s vacations
· Michelle Obama’s food police
· Barack Obama’s golf
· Barack Obama’s arrogant and condescending lectures
· Barack Obama’s criticism/hatred of America
· Valerie Jarrett
· “ Holiday trees”
.Hollywood hypocrites
· Cop killers calling themselves Black Lives Matter
· Gun confiscation
· Stagnant wages
· Boys in girls’ bathrooms
. Whiny, spoiled college students who can’t even place the
Civil War in the correct century... and that’s just the
short list.
Trump supporters believe that no Democrat wants to address
these issues, and that few Republicans have the courage
to address these issues. They know that Trump is their way
of saying, “Screw you, Hillary Rodham and all the Do
Nothing Republicans!” The more the talking head political
pundits insult the Trump supporters, the more supporters
he gains. (The only pundits who seem to understand what
is going on are Democrats Doug Schoen and Pat Caddell and
Republican John LeBoutillier.
But America does not need a tune-up at the same old
garage. It needs a new engine installed by experts - and
Hillary Rodham is not a mechanic; she merely manages a
garage her philandering husband abandoned. Trump is also
not a mechanic, but he knows where to find the best ones to
work in his garage. He won’t hire his brother-in-law or
someone to whom he owes a favor; he will hire someone who
lives and breathes cars.
“How dare they revolt!” the “elites” are bellowing. Well,
the citizens are daring to revolt, and the RINOs had
better get used to it. “But Trump will hand the election to
Clinton !” That is what the Karl Rove-types want people to
believe, just as the leftist media eagerly shoved
“Maverick” McCain down GOP throats in 2008 - knowing he
would lose to Obama. But even if Trump loses and Rodham
wins, she would be nothing more than a caretaker, not
working to restore America ‘s greatness but merely
presiding over the collapse of a massively in-debt nation.
A nation can perhaps survive open borders; a nation can
perhaps survive a generous welfare system. But no nation
can survive both - and there is little evidence that
Hillary Rodham understands that. The United States cannot
forever continue on the path it is on. At some point it
will be destroyed by its debt.
Yes, Trump speaks like a bull wander[ing] through a china
shop, but the truth is that the borders do need to be
sealed; we cannot afford to feed, house, and clothe 200,000
Syrian immigrants for decades (even if we get inordinately
lucky and none of them are ISIS infiltrators or Syed
Farook wannabes); the world is at war with radical
Islamists; and we cannot continue trying to spend our way
out of debt.
Is Trump the perfect candidate? Of course not. Neither was
Ronald Reagan. But unless we close our borders and restrict
immigration, all the other issues are irrelevant. One
terrorist blowing up a bridge or a tunnel could kill
thousands. One jihadist poisoning a city’s water supply
could kill tens of thousands. One electromagnetic pulse
attack from a single Iranian nuclear device could kill tens
of millions. Faced with those possibilities, most
Americans probably don’t care that Trump relied on eminent
domain to grab up a final quarter acre of property for a
hotel, or that he boils the blood of the Muslim Brotherhood
thugs running the Council on American-Islamic Relations.
While Attorney General Loretta Lynch’s greatest fear is
someone giving a Muslim a dirty look, most Americans are
more worried about being gunned down at a shopping mall by
a crazed [islamic] lunatic who treats his prayer mat better
than his three wives and who is fool enough to think that
72 virgins are waiting for him in paradise.
The establishment is frightened to death that Trump will
win, but not because they believe he will harm the nation.
They are afraid he will upset their taxpayer-subsidized
apple carts. While Obama threatens to veto legislation that
spends too little, they worry that Trump will veto
legislation that spends too much.
You can be certain that if Hillary wins in November 2016 …
[her] cabinet positions will be filled with the same
people we’ve seen before. The washed-up has-beens of the
Clinton and Obama administrations will be back in charge.
The hacks from Goldman Sachs will continue to call the
shots. And America will continue her continuing decline as
other great democracies in history.
If the establishment wins, America loses.
