I was thrilled to hear our Republican presidential nominee pronounce himself "the law and order candidate." Talking about crime is something I've been urging on the GOP for a very long time. What remains to be seen is whether Donald Trump will go from talking to thinking about crime, and thence to actually doing what is necessary to reach his stated goal: "The crime and violence that today afflicts our nation will soon – and I mean very soon – come to an end."
In American history, we find many cases where rampant lawlessness was abruptly squelched. Unfortunately, they all involve bloodshed. What is worse, they involve lawbreaking, because they all were wrought by vigilantes. Since it is highly unlikely that Trump actually contemplates lynch law, we could dismiss his "law and order" promise as just empty bombast. Or we could look for a lawful means by which the promise might be fulfilled.
We are beckoned there by the words of Theodore Roosevelt, who, in taking a stand against lynch law, held that "it certainly ought to be possible by the proper administration of the laws to secure swift vengeance upon the criminal." But whereas T.R. called for "the best and immediate efforts of all legislators, judges, and citizens" in devising rules for the prosecution of criminals that would "under no circumstances be perverted into permitting any mere technicality to avert or delay their punishment," the trend since his day has been in the opposite direction.

Arrest and prosecute every single NWO traitor would be a huge step in the right direction.

These pundits/so-called journalists are idiots. Trump doesn’t have to know how to do it. A leader sets a goal, inspires people to go along with it, and gets top people in the field to come up with a plan and follow through with implementation. When Kennedy said we were going to go to the moon, no one expected him to say how we were going to do it.
appoint Christie Attorney General
Have Christie appoint Rudy to prosecute Hillary
Trump’s law and order credential proven
Christie loves muslims. He appointed at least one to the state supreme court, and verbally excoriated everyone who dared to criticize his “brilliant” appointment.
I don’t trust him, and wouldn’t want to see him anywhere there is power involved.
Judge Jeanine would be a far superior appointment!
Maybe “law and order” needs to stand aside for a little revolution.
