Great article-thanks!
Trump is the third party candidate.
He’s battling the entrenched power cabals of both parties.
I pray that he wins. Buyer’s remorse is always a possibility. But none of the other candidates are even marginally acceptable. I do not know how anyone who calls himself a “conservative Republican” could vote for the antithesis of that position—Hillary Hussein Clinton.
America’s third war of Independence (the first two being in 1776)
Great post!
Why Donald Trump?
If those citizens seem to come from the Taxed Enough Already movement, the Christian Evangelical movement, and even from those others who have appeared to be in an almost hypnotic state of concern about America's status, then they may come from that portion of the citizenry most likely to be trustworthy arbiters in the battle between America's founding ideas and those of so-called "progressive" politicians and their mind controllers/"we-know-better-than-you" political operatives.
Many citizens within those groups have done independent study of the founding ideas, and they know that liberty is at risk when "change" agents believing in the counterfeit ideas of socialism and so-called "progressive" change, are in charge of the nation's future.
Remember, Paul Revere is said to have been a "peripheral" factor in the Revolutionary War for Independence, but he was an important link in that historical event which changed the world. Revere, too was a successful business man and craftsman.
Our own LS posts on his web site:
"He designed and printed the first Continental money; made the first official seal for the colonies and the seal of Massachusetts (still used today); directed the manufacture of gunpowder in Canton; and eventually commanded a garrison at Castle William in 1779. After the Revolution, Revere’s foundry provided copper accessories and other metal items for the U.S.S. Constitution , better known as “Old Ironsides.” His Revere silver to this day remains a popular style of dinner ware, and his rolling process for sheet copper provided copper plates for Robert Fulton’s Clermont, the first steam vessel. As a businessman, patriot, artist, civic leader, husband, and father, Paul Revere has remained a legendary figure of the American Revolution."Others had to assume their individual role as the philosophical foundation articulators who wrote the "Declaration of Independence" and framed the "Constitution of the United States of America," and served as Presidents and Legislators and Justices under the limitations and bounds of that Constitution.
If, indeed, there is a "movement," then the "movement" must assert its will to hold its leaders to strict adherence to the Constitution.
Republics are created by the virtue, public spirit, and intelligence of the citizens. They fall, when the wise are banished from the public councils, because they dare to be honest, and the profligate are rewarded, because they flatter the people, in order to betray them.Justice Joseph Story
No man can suffer too much, and no man can fall too soon, if he suffer or if he fall in defense of the liberties and Constitution of his country.
Daniel Webster
Hold on, my friends, to the Constitution and to the Republic for which it stands. Miracles do not cluster and what has happened once in 6,000 years, may not happen again. Hold on to the Constitution, for if the American Constitution should fail, there will be anarchy throughout the world.
Daniel Webster
America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within.

If Trump loses, the demokkkrats/rinos will have won the civil war, and the REPUBLIC WILL BE FINISHED!
Then we will have to have asymmetrical warfare and this new civil war will have body counts in the tens or hundreds of millions, and the first civil war would have been for nothing.
Donald is also working closely with small businesses which isn’t being mentioned very much. If the giant corporations don’t want to return, that’s OK because there are a ton of small businesses which stand to benefit without the interference by giant corps.
Once upon a time near the turn of the 1900’s, roughly 90% of all Americans were self employed. I’m not sure what the percentage is now, but I do know it’s not even close to what it used to be.
With Trump repealing many of the restrictions on business in addition to taxes, small business will have opportunity to grow which is something that’s hard to do right now. Many of the business restrictions were put in place by huge corps. to stifle competition.
Another thing not really addressed regarding the increased import tax is the idea that with small businesses flourishing, and the return of some of big business, people will once again have a CHOICE of whether or not to purchase that import, or to choose a less expensive but better quality American made product.
It would seem to me that in order for that import to compete with American made, they’re going to have to DROP the price of that item in order to squeeze in that 35% tax to the consumer. Of course, that reduces their profits.
Yep, I can see that competition begin already which is evidence on it’s own that what Trump proposes is indeed going to stimulate competition! Competition of course forces innovation which is good for business.
Business grows, business hires.
Hillary wants to cripple the wealthy but the wealthy are the ones who put that money out there in the form of business and jobs so that taxes CAN be paid!
I once worked for a millionaire and he was holding back on his money, because he knew that if Obama raised taxes again, it would break him. He couldn’t invest! He asked ME what I thought he should invest in, and at the time, I told him...GOLD. He’d of made a fortune if he listened to me. Don’t know if he did or not. I’m not a business person. But some things are pretty basic. Buy low, sell high. Gold was cheap at the time.
Hillary wants to tax the daylights out of the rich, make them pay their ‘fair share’. BUT, what people aren’t hearing is that she’s saying that individuals aren’t going to be allowed to become wealthy. That the government is going to determine how much money you can have, and they will take the rest.
FROM each according to their ability...TO each according to their need. The government will be the one to determine YOUR needs, and of course, it’s own needs are much more important than yours. Indeed, the proof is already there. Look at the current tax code. The only thing left to confiscate is the means of the wealthy. No wonder they moved their business away!
Trump has it right. Hillary is an idiot. Communism is stupid. Capitalism can recycle.
And the Money Quote is:

Welcome to Serfdom
I believe the internet is the big reason why globalism is being pushed.
Large internet social media and marketing companies span the globe and extract revenue from other countries that get no benefit from them. They want their share and they think globalism is the way to get it.
NEVER FORGET

..DEMOCRAT HILLARY was raised by a mother who was the Secretary to the President of the Communist Party of America, which is now endorsing DEMOCRAT HILLARY for President of the United States..!!!
.
NEVER FORGET
Trump’s campaign touched the taproot of the Electorate. Most Americans cannot quite put a finger on the reason, but understand one thing: they know they have been sold to international kingmakers by both parties.>>>>>>>>>>>>
Exactly.
That’s why I do not care a wit about whatever Donald said about women 11 years ago, or whenever.
We need The Donald in office and we are fortunate to have him.
Wow! What a great article.
The Trump campaign needs to hire David Usher right away. This guy is so upbeat, and explains the Trump plan like no one I’ve seen.
I’m glad to see such a good article on Townhall. More people need to understand these fundamental big picture issues, and not get distracted and lost in the insignificant red herrings of the media’s creation.
“rule by unelected Libertopian academics beholden to the investor class”
Says it all.
We’re not gonna take it!
