Donald Trump is a vulgar clown posing as a conservative, unmoored to any coherent ideology. He has generated unprecedented opposition and the contempt of people across the political spectrum. He is unbound to any principle other than his own appetite for adulation. And those very factors that make him so appalling also make him America’s only hope.
Now we need to suck it up and pull the lever for this jerk. I don’t need to hear why Trump sucks again. I know why he’s terrible. I’ve written about it at length.
But the Hillary Clinton charade of July 5th – a date that shall live in infamy – and the subsequent rubbing of normal Americans’ noses in the heap of droppings progressives have piled upon the rule of law make plain that there is something much more important at stake here than fussy distaste over Trump’s aesthetic failings and his myriad misjudgments.
The short-sighted liberal elite, aided and abetted by its media catamites, are using our Constitution as toilet paper. One thing matters. One thing only. That is restoring the rule of law, because without it the coastal femboys and hectoring harridans of the left will keep pushing and prodding and provoking until they, to their shock, find normal Americans pushing back. They are worse than stupid – they are unwise, thinking they are simply playing fun games oppressing and abusing those they see as lessers when, in reality, they are playing with fire.
One thing matters. One thing only. That is restoring the rule of law, and only a Trump presidency can do that.
Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and their cabal have demonstrated that there is no one they cannot corrupt, or at least whose integrity they can’t twist and deform. John Roberts, James Comey – all we heard about was their lofty integrity right up until the moment they shoved their shivs in our collective kidney. We can’t rely on the honor of individuals. We need to return to a paradigm where the interests of factions work to check and balance each other.
If elected, how will Hillary Clinton ever be held accountable? Can you conceive of a scenario where the Democrats, or their media, judicial and bureaucratic allies ever stand up in opposition to anything she does, no matter how venal, how corrupt, how fascist? Name the Democrat who stood up in the wake of Comey’s honor flush and said, “This is wrong!”
There will be no check or balance on Hillary Clinton. Not the Congress (D or R), not the courts, not the media, not the bureaucrats. None. This Alinksyite corruptocrat, her second-rate mind twisted with hatred toward normal Americans, will reign unchallenged. She has already sought the power to jail those who criticize her; reversing Citizens United would only be the first step in an unopposed quest to eliminate all legitimate means of dissent, to bar all legitimate means of opposition. Which, of course, would leave only illegitimate means – something she is too dense and ignorant of normal Americans to imagine is possible.
Which leaves Donald Trump as the only alternative, not merely because he is less awful than Hillary Clinton – leprosy is less awful than Hillary Clinton – but because the election of a tacky jerk like Donald Trump is the only thing that could ever motivate the elite to rediscover checks and balances upon executive power.
Think of it. A Congress that finally finds a spine in the face of the president. And that’s not just Democrats – even the posing goofs on the Republican side of the aisle would be falling over themselves to take a whack at the orange executive. What court would shrug and defer to El Presidente Little Digits? Even the mainstream media would rediscover the curiosity about West Wing wrongdoing that disappeared back in January 2009. Imagine their delight to once again be able to preen and strut while babbling about how they speak truth to power instead of groveling and bussing the rear of their White House master.
America will have never seen checking and balancing like President Trump would experience. And that is exactly, precisely what America must have right now.
Hillary Clinton will roll into office unhindered and unaccountable. We know what Clintons do when there is oversight; any sane person should shudder at the thought of them not merely unaccountable, but actively abetted by the entire elite. If you want to tear this country apart – not figuratively, not metaphorically, but with the real violence and bloodshed she will blunder into provoking – then hand that aspiring pants-suited Chavez wannabe the keys to the Oval Office.
That’s the choice. There’s no white knight riding in to snag the nomination away from the guy who won it fair and square. It’s Trump or Hillary. Sorry, that’s your choice, and making no choice is a choice for her.
I get that you detest Trump. So do I. But you can stop sending me tweets about the latest faux outrage. “Trump loves Saddam Hussein and has insulted all our vets and blah blah blah!” Get some damn perspective.
I know you’ve invested a lot of your personal credibility in refusing to support him, and you will absolutely have to endure a lot of graceless gloating by his jerkier acolytes if you walk it back. I endure plenty from Trump haters. Apparently I’m a fake conservative and hate America and blah blah blah. But walk it back you must.
This isn’t about how awful Trump is; it’s about how awful Hillary will be without any constraints whatsoever.
Only one thing matters. One thing only. That is restoring the rule of law. And only a Trump presidency has any hope of doing that.
Sorry.
Suck it up and vote for the rule of law.
And, astonishingly, that means you must vote for Donald Trump.
At least Trump is patriotic. I don’t know of any Democrat politicians who are and our Republicans representatives aren’t much better.
We’d be in the cafeteria line getting our food tray filled with heaping helpings of Democrat delicacies.
I generally enjoy Schlichter’s writing, but he has an irrational fear of Trump. It’s all very similar to what folks said about Reagan back in the day. I expect that Donald Trump will be one of the finest presidents in history, and many people will be walking stuff back once that becomes apparent.
And people need to stop spazzing out every time the rats with bylines in the MSM squawk about one of Trump’s tweets or something he said. Just ignore it - like the rats ignore OJ Clinton’s various lies and failures.
I will walk barefoot over rough gravel to get to the polls
in November and vote for DONALD J. TRUMP. IF we don’t,
Hitler-y Clinton will waltz into the Oval Office. TRUMP
will make a better POTUS than the fraud we have had in there
for almost 8 years. & letting her and Billious back in there
is unthinkable.
I cannot believe that anyone would consider not voting for Trump. There is simply no alternative. Every GOP elected official should attend the convention, get out the vote, endorse him enthusiastically, kiss his ass, raise huge amounts of money for him, walk in front of him at campaign events to protect him, and on and on. Get with the program people.

One thing for sure - I won’t waste any more time sucking it up and reading crap by Kurt - in fact that what he should name his column: “Crap by Kurt” (or maybe “Krap by Kurt”...).
