Trump may be a bully and blowhard, but his policies are working

Once upon a time in America a presidential campaign was decided on the phrase “Rum, Romanism & Rebellion.”

It was not exactly true, but it worked.

Now, 125 years after that controversial campaign and election, the slogan shaping up for Democrats running against Donald Trump is another Triple R — “Russia, Race & Recession.”

None of that is exactly true, either

Seriously, is the author trying to impress someone by being ‘fair and balanced?’

Exactly. I don’t personally mind that Trump is basically a Queens brawler who doesn’t back down from anybody. A little crude at times? Sure. What of it? At least it’s real. You know he’s not BSing you. You also know he’s not going to roll over for foreign leaders. Since he’s a billionaire, trying to bribe him is useless.

IF the LEFTIST DIMocRATS had a single brain among all of them, they would SIT-OUT the 2020 campaign as it will be a BLOODBATH for EVERY LEFTIST Nationwide. = The 2020 race is irretrievably LOST already for the DIMs.

The Democrat Media wants to run the country. They resent Donald Trump and want Socialism to be our way of life.

Standing up to bullies ain’t being a bully...
When one makes all the progress that President Trump has, against all the onslaught he faces 24/7/365, it ain’t bein’ a blowhard...
You lost your target audience with those assertions up front....

In other words, President Trump is not politically correct.

F&%k anyone who complains.
