I liked Trump, but after faggot GEORGE WILL (who in 08 supported Obama and who disliked Reagan in 80) insulted Trump, well, then I KNEW I LOVE Trump.

So woe to the chattering class who mistakenly believes Trump’s supporters are just a fringe “protest vote.” They are indeed protesting, but they do so as the New Protestants, coming forth from both major parties along with independents, sorely aggrieved at a dysfunctional government guilty of far more than 95 transgressions. They arise together in fury because our once great government has clearly become destructive of operating by the consent of the governed, and it is therefore the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government.

This entire article is EXCELLENT.

Love the guy’s writing style....he’s a CEO and drummer of a classic rock, country and blues band, in TX.

Bears Repeating!

WOW is right.....worthy of the read in every respect!

Excellent article! Thanks for the ping.

My favorite quote from that piece: "The People just want a competent dragon slayer to kill the damn thing."

[Rona Badger]

For heaven's sake. Is Trump's appeal that hard to understand? I guess it is for these high information voters!

[Amntn]

You’re welcome.

I pinged South40 to it too. Along with a little message about being closed minded.

[StAntKnee]

A Revolution without gunfire is, indeed, a Reformation—that the governed can control the consent again.

[Duchess47]

Thank you, great article.

That is true and not a REPUBLICAN politician makes him 10 times more liked. As he is not the same ol same ol, more persons seem to be listening to him not fearing the laughter and scorn from friends and relatives and THEY (friends), too, might be interested as well.

JAO Sorry for the mangled sentence, English police;lost the train as the excitement of what is being seen is so great.

.....”So woe to the chattering class who mistakenly believes Trump’s supporters are just a fringe “protest vote.” They are indeed protesting, but they do so as the New Protestants, coming forth from both major parties along with independents, sorely aggrieved at a dysfunctional government guilty of far more than 95 transgressions.......

The people are in search of a proven leader, a fighter, and a winner who can make that abolition and alteration of government happen....... Therefore, whoever that leader is, he or she could very well, not just win a national election, but with the heartfelt consent of the governed usher in AN AMERICAN REFORMATION!

[Duchess47]

Thanks for the ping. It’s a great article and I’m afraid if we don’t have an American Reformation we will have an American Revolution. I really think this is our last chance at the ballot box.

[Yaelle]

Yes, everyone must read this. Especially the last two paragraphs. Go there and read those.

It matches my tagline.

We need an American Reformation and we need it NOW.

I'm sure South40 is a good guy, otherwise I wouldn't waste my time with him. Just that he doesn't seem to see the big picture. Yes, Ted Cruz is a far better conservative than Donald Trump. But if Donald Trump can pull off gaining the GOP nomination, it will be a GOP landslide in November. This will put Ted Cruz in much better position to gain the presidency later on. Remember that Cruz is still 44. He's got another 20-25 years to earn his place in history.

Trump and Cruz have already been meeting with each other and I think they are developing a special working relationship to help get this nation turned around.

[Chode]

Trump is our middle finger to the GOPe!
