Same thing in Bangor, Maine.
Man calls a Boston talk radio show; says he lives in a complex of condos in Bangor. I thought he said 400 condos. I’m not familiar with a condo complex in Bangor that large, but there is a low-income area that might have that many.
Anyway, this caller says that he has a Trump sign out front, and no one ever tampers with it.
Then, he says he gets approached all the time by neighbors who tell him they love his sign and they also tell him they’re planning to vote for Trump, too.
“Because the caller might not be a pollster. (See Post #15.)”
Or they may be identifying Trump supporters for reasons that are not good for those identified.
Men are a bit less likely this year to say publicly whom they will vote for.
Of course they are. Men are the main targets and victims of the political correctness gestapo.
We talked about that on today’s show. I PRAY it is so!!
WE’RRRRE BACK!
As most of you already know, since mid-2014,we’ve been doing a 30 minute weekly Wednesday
radio show (aka “rant”) with Dr. Lori Wilson out of WLBB in Carrollton, Georgia.
If you have an interest in listening, go to this link http://www.gradickcommunications.com
and the center “PODCASTS” Menu and click on “The Wednesday Show with Dick Bachert”
for the current program.
If you want to listen real-time, the show airs between 8:30 to 9:00 AM, Eastern
It's been easier for me to simply say that I'm not really paying attention this year, and probably won't vote.
I have no idea if anyone else is taking that approach, but it's just not worth the aggravation to get involved in political discussions these days.
So they told pollsters what they wouldn’t tell pollsters.
I doubt there’s a hidden monster vote though I’m praying there is. If there is, they’ll hack into the system to flip votes to Hellary.
“Popular vote, 1964. LBJ 61, Goldwater 38. Just sayin’”
Goldwater was never even remotely close in the polls. Just sayin’
FYI
Frankly, I had not heard/read all that much about this meeting. So, when I read this, I did a quick search and came up with the standard coverage (http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016/06/21/trump-to-meet-with-concerned-evangelical-leaders-in-nyc.html), which included negative comments from The Federalist (”Trump reduced Christianity to mandatory Sunday School attendance”) and others. I’m glad that a friend sent me this account, ostensibly from one of the attendees - gives a meaningful summary of what really happened back in July . . . & the importance of the Christian vote . . .
_____________________________________________
Trump Met With Evangelical Leaders. This was a fascinating day in July in New York City as over 1,000 Christian leaders from all over the U.S. gathered to ask Donald Trump tough, specific questions about his policy and intentions should he be elected.
A screening committee, scouring the Internet, sent out invitations to about 1000 Christian leaders. Each person who accepted the invitation then had to be vetted, and ultimately ok’ed by the Secret Service. Once cleared, you were notified by phone. I got two sets of phone questions about my work with Compass and when finally approved, had 10 days to make plans. (I’m sure I was. at the end of the list!!)
But despite receiving the late notices, the response to attend was off-the-charts. Almost everyone they invited accepted the invitation. And some who were left off the original list apparently lobbied for inclusion.
Ultimately there were over 1,000 who hastily changed their schedules to attend. [’Editor:’ the MSM said ‘about 200 . . .’]
The security was tight for the 7 AM opening for registrants. I stood in long lines for an hour, passing through three check points before finally getting through Secret Service security. Once I finally got to my seat at my table I was astonished to be sitting next to a sharp-as-a tack Auburn grad who is married to another Auburn grad and lives in Vestavia, Alabama where I grew up. She’s a registered lobbyist who worked for George Bush (W) when she first got out of Auburn. War Eagle to that one!
Also at my table was a Congressional candidate from North Carolina, a Christian TV station owner from Florida and the Chairman of the Board of the Washington Times. There were about four past Steeling conference speakers in the room, that I noticed. Probably more I didn’t see.
After opening remarks by the conference organizers, Jerry Falwell Jr. spoke, then Franklin Graham. Both attested to the authenticity of Donald Trump. George Barna, the polling guy, spoke. Using several charts he showed that Trump has a genuine path to victory if Christians vote. But in the last Presidential election, some 40 million evangelicals stayed home and that was literally The difference in the election.
Then Ben Carson spoke for about 20 minutes. His easy and soft-spoken style easily warmed the crowd. He referred to the fact that Trump had a bad three weeks, and Clinton had a good three weeks and yet the race is still close, virtually tied. But his main point was that Trump is a proven leader. He’s certainly not a politician who’s always worried about offending someone. And that’s what we need, a leader, not a politician.
Next came Huckabee, who moderated the discussion between the crowd and Trump. Before introducing Trump, he made the point that we’re not voting on a pastor or a Pope, but rather a leader. A leader who is quite different from the past in. order to change things from the status quo.
So the day was set that this was not about Trump’s Christian knowledge or virtues, but rather where Trump wants to take the country. And where we’re headed if Trump is not elected.The biggest concern centered around the Supreme Court. The next President will appoint anywhere from one to five members. The Second Amendment, freedom of religion, prayer in public places, etc.will likely be settled by the next President’s appointees. When Donald Trump was introduced, he didn’t speak from the podium but rather sat next to Huckabee on the stage fielding questions from the crowd for about 90 minutes. So much for. the 30 minutes originally allotted. There was no press allowed inside, so it was. just Trump and the Christian leaders talking back and forth.
The really big Christian leader names got to directly ask Trump questions from the floor i.e. people like James Dobson, Ralph Reed, Tony.Evans, etc. Most felt religious liberty was at stake with this election, saying that if the policies Obama has set in place are allowed to continue, Christians will eventually have no freedom to worship. Harassment of Christian organizations would continue. Through it all, Trump answered each of their questions with solid answers, both acknowledging the problem cited and how he would take care of the problem. He seemed to be genuinely concerned about changing the direction of the nation. He addressed many subjects including the Supreme Court, national defense, border problems, Christian persecution, his pro-life stance, Israel, healthcare, education. and energy.
I would say that most of those who attended who were not sure if they would vote for him, left knowing how much is at stake in this election if Trump is not elected.
After Trump left, to a standing ovation, more questions were taken from the audience addressed to a panel of Christian leaders. Things like the weakening of the military, Christian business rights, etc. were discussed at length.
I have to say, we pretty much all came away thinking that if Clinton, or any Democrat, is elected, the path this nation is currently on will continue and WILL lead to disaster. If we don’t turn the ship now, we’re headed to be like socialized Europe, religion pushed out of everyday life and a financial disaster getting worse by the month.
Even reaching problems like what’s going on in Venezuela, where they are currently literally fighting for food, is not out of the realm of possibilities. It’s that bad.
Don’t think it can’t happen here.
At the end of the day was prayer. With few exceptions, the entire room knelt on the floor in corporate prayer for our nation. I took the opportunity to take a quick picture of that sight, some 1000 people in their Sunday clothes on the ground praying together. Who knows where this will lead. Maybe ….
So, the bottom line for me is that I love this country and our Constitution more than I dislike Trump’s antics and ego. He will attempt to change the direction that Godless liberals and their propaganda-media have led this nation. With Trump we have a chance.
With Clinton we have no chance. Be thankful we still have a chance and VOTE this fall.
Please pass this on. The future of our country in general and our religious liberty in particular depend on every Christian being registered to vote, AND going out to vote on election day . . . .
And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. (Rom 8:28)

When Persuasion Turns Deadly

“Some of you watched with amusement as I endorsed Hillary Clinton for my personal safety. What you might not know is that I was completely serious. I was getting a lot of direct and indirect death threats for writing about Trump’s powers of persuasion, and I made all of that go away by endorsing Clinton. People don’t care why I am on their side. They only care that I am.”
It is a miracle that Trump supporters have not responded back BIGTIME.
He did not show at the recent Japan earthquake......
I am very concerned.
Trump = careless with his comments.
Hillary = careless with our national security and may actually have engaged in outright treason.
Yep, tough to choose here.
IMO, the race all boils down to Trump, the outsider who is not beholden to the NWO elites of both parties who are working to give us a less-powerful, socialized America versus Hillary, the ultimate connected insider to those elites who is willing to sell out the country (literally) for any reason that lines her purse.
If I were to wager overseas, I’d ask the odds that Mike Pence (not Trump or Hillary) will become the next president and drop a few dimes on it. This means essentially that Trump won’t live to be sworn in even though he outpolls Hillary in November.
Without asking anyone which candidate they intend to vote for, I only look to the campaign rallies which tells the complete story. How many people attend the Clinton rallies versus how many people attend the Trump rallies. Based on what I have been watching, the “polls numbers” shown as rally attendees speaks volumes. Enough said.
Trump supporters know not to post bumper stickers or they are inviting vandalism of their vehicles.
Mrs. Bill’s backers don’t like rallies of this kind and don’t attend, but they love Mr. and Mrs. Bill and will be out in force on Nov. 8. Some may even get up early to make sure they vote.
“I am mad at all media, all pollsters, all government.”
If you feel that way, it seems you’d be overtly expressing your support of Trump to one and all, instead of hiding it.
“It is a miracle that Trump supporters have not responded back BIGTIME.”
That is what our enemies want us to do.
