As Kurt Schlichter put it - “They wonder why they got Trump. They are why they got Trump”.
Being a POW doesn’t make one a HERO.
“Heroic actions” in combat propel one into that status — e.g. single handedly taking out a machine gun nest or capturing a large number of the enemy with your HG — these are meritorious actions.
Rotting in a POW camp for 5+ years is commendable, worthy of honor, but not heroic.
We have obliterated the meaning of words. Now just serving in the military makes one a hero. This same sort of mindset feels compelled to give every one an award, thereby totally cheapening and rendering meaningless the recognition of excellence.
I totally agree with you on the fact that the European elite who launched WWI are the worst bunch in humanity.
The American people rejected John McCain twice
... rejected Hillary Clinton twice
... rejected Jeb Bush with a fury that surprised 'elites' in Washington since he was their choice.
The American people are sick of the two bit phonies who run on one message then 'pivot to' establishment elites the minute they get to Washington...
Trump is keeping his word to the American people. McCain and Hillary kept their word to corrupt elites.
It’s very simple.
Both parties were hell bent on making America into North Mexico and the citizens wanted it stopped.
The citizens have wanted it stopped since the establishment started their bipartisan policy of non-enforcement right after the last amnesty.
That bill promised border and interior enforcement for a one-time amnesty.
The establishment had no intention of ever securing the border or enforcing the laws.
The illegal alien inundation was intentional and bipartisan.
They had US in a box voting for amnesty candidate D or amnesty candidate R with no hope of keeping our country.
Trump promised US he would stop the invasion of our country by fraudulently documented foreigners.
That is why he won.
