The Horse Sense Blog compares the nonsense in today’s news with good ol’ fashioned horse sense.
Here’s the Nonsense: Donald Trump is too outspoken, flamboyant, irreverent, and has hair that I hate for me to consider him a serious candidate for president. We need to force him out of the race immediately.
Here’s the Horse Sense: Trump may be all of those things, but speaking your mind has historically been something Americans take pride in. We need to know more about his plans for America before we make a decision about him. And as for his hair, if you judge people based on their hair, weight, skin color, the way they dress, or anything else that says nothing about their character or ability, then you need to look in a mirror to see the real fool.
The media, politicians from both parties, political pundits, and many talk show hosts are leading the charge to attack and/or discount Donald Trump’s run for the White House. Criticisms of the most superficial things control the conversation. Leftist groups have mounted campaigns to have those who do business with him quit doing so. Yet with all the criticism and threats, Trump not only doesn’t back down, the stronger he stands the more his poll numbers rise. And through it all there seems to be no constructive arguments against Trump.
We’re seeing no attacks on his plans for America. No denial of the truths he’s speaking, just attacks twisting his words through a politically correct filter. But Americans who aren’t involved in the day-to-day world of politics and reporting on it, or who aren’t members of the politically correct class, are hearing from Trump the words that they themselves think. He is willing to say what they think and not back down when confronted. He’s rapidly becoming a modern day icon with John Wayne strength that Americans look up to.
Americans are tired of always losing.
Since World War II we’ve never fought a war to win. We see our soldiers come home to tell us about the “rules of engagement” they must follow and that don’t give them a fighting chance, let alone allow them to fight to win.
Our jobs have been lost to foreign countries.
Our economy is faltering.
Our children are getting education on a level lower than anytime in American history. Most of our college graduates today would have a hard time passing high school exams from the middle of the 20th century. Our educational institutions have become nothing more than indoctrination camps to teach our children how bad America is and how it must be changed.
All this and more cause Americans to be very weary of what’s happened in our country. Americans want a winner who is willing to fight for them. And when Donald Trump says, “I love America. And when you love something, you protect it passionately – fiercely, even.” the American people rise up and cheer. This is a message they yearn for deep in their hearts.

what do we really know about Obama’s plan(s) for America??
I’m tired of all the ‘politicians’..... we need a BULL IN THE CHINA SHOP.
Let’s put Trump in the WH, and Ted Cruz on the Supreme Court!
It's a bit too late to start worrying about that now.
As much as we know about McBoner’s plans for America.
What we know right now is that he will not put up with the Ruling Class Establishment's crap, he will fight back, fight nasty, speak his mind without apology and tell the media to eff itself.
That is good enough or most of us who are sick of spineless jellyfish pretending to be Conservatives.
Someone needs to hit back against this Marxist velvet coup we suffered. Trump is hitting back. So that is what we really know at the moment.
What do we know about Jeb’s plan for America other than amnesty for all.
Synopsis of book. Outline of plan at link
This is a great article with a detailed plan for America by Trump.
This is a great article with a detailed plan for America by Trump.
The article and synopsis of Trump’s book at the link are well worth reading.
Refer to BO’s recent “deal” with Iran. That should explain enough!
There is a great synopsis of one of Trumps books and his detailed plan for America at the link. Well worth the time.
If it weren’t for Trump the only conservative plan would be which lamb gets sacrificed on the Uniparty altar.
What >did< we know about 0’barry’s plan for America?
Well, we know Jeb’s plans for America...make all illegals legal and establish common core education, meaning Washington DC to decide what your your children will learn, not you ot your local school board.
I’m not sure where he gets his information so I think there’s a lot of guesswork and projections in his conclusions. And if not then it’s still all over the place, like a good Trump plan should be. Trump’s point 8 conflicts with point 10 and with trying to pay for point 2. He’s all against Obamacare but has said he wants to replace it with something a billion time better and a zillion times cheaper. The idea that Mexico would pay for the wall or that he could sue OPEC on anti-trust violations are just plain silly, as are his claims that he could defeat ISIS and seize Iraq oil to pay for it. And his tariff schemes do nothing but increase the costs for consumers.
Well, we thought we “knew” the plans the GOP had for America before we elected them to run the House and Senate. As it turns out, they’re no different than Obama’s plans.
Not yet ready to vote for Trump by any means, but I’m pretty certain of where he’ll stand on the things he’s spoken about thus far...
The article gives us a great look at Trump’s plans. Well worth the read.
