graduated in 2012 w a degree in Women's Studies... cried in 2016 when Trump got elected... but watching Trump survive an assassination attempt and act like a total savage just shifted me into some strange, patriotic gear...

That’s it imho.

She saw a badass that would be capable of actually DOING something to lead and protect the country. Women like competence. The leadership shown made her feel safe.

Especially as her option is Biden - the difference could be more stark.

A liberal chicklette just saw a manful man doing manful things, manfully.

I think the more info that comes out about just how inept this whole thing was...and the horrible way Biden Admin is dealing with the aftermath..the more people will see the need for the fight and someone strong enough to do it. Not a pajama boy or a senile grandpa who can’t make it up the stairs.

Best laugh of the day. Thanks

Thanks. As they say, I learn something new every day.

Her audience for this post are former Democrats, recovering liberals, and anyone who understands reality is not defined by their college teacher's politics.

They will understand exactly what she means.

The country knows we’re in increasingly tough and challenging times, and Trump’s reaction this week was very reassuring.

[9YearLurker]

We put them through 17 years of brainwashing and then are surprised when it takes a bit for them to escape the trance?

I was watching some podcast and the guy (former military) was very impressed with Trump's reaction. He said something like “So this guy just got shot. He knows that he was shot. Somebody was trying to kill him. And he has the wherewithal to stand up, raise his fist and shout “Fight - Fight - Fight”.

I was never a Trump sycophant. But that right there changed things for me. That was his true nature coming through. He is a leader. A fighter. There are perhaps only a thousand people in the world that could have that sort of reaction after having been shot.

[9YearLurker]

I’d say more than a thousand, but still impressive—especially for a president and presidential candidate.

As my circle of friends used to say of nice, pretty boy types with no spine, they were first husband material.

They want a brave man,

they want a cave man.

native stupidity.

Tell me what is “natively stupid” about this post. I’m not seeing it and I doubt you’re as cynical as I am.

You’re welcome.

2012… 2012… What is it that I remember from that election?

Oh yeah, OBAMAPHONE!

Best part of that clip is her absolutely spot-on assessment of Mittens!

[jmacusa]

Had a young nurse in the ER say to me “I don’t care if it’s a Democrat or Republican. I just want someone who’ll keep me and my kids safe.’’

I told her “Susan, then vote for Trump’’.

I’m hoping she does.

Sort of like "Horton Hears a Who."
