Donald Trump is more similar to the Founders of our country than anyone who has run for the presidency in my lifetime.
What?! What?! Didn't Trump just jump an entire school of sharks in the third debate, saying he didn't know if he would accept the outcome of the election. Isn't he finished? Are you out of your bloody mind, Simon?
Okay, maybe, it wouldn't be the first time... but hear me out.
Put briefly: If Donald Trump believesas many of us dothat the FBI is corrupt, the Justice Department is corrupt, the other party is hiring violent paid thugs to disrupt his campaign rallies, that no one knows who is really registered to vote, that the press is stratospherically biased, and that his opponent, backed up by all those corrupt entities, should have been indicted, why would a patriot, or for that matter someone who is even routinely honest, necessarily accept the results of the election of that opponent?
Ben Franklin wouldn't. Thomas Jefferson wouldn't. James Madison wouldn't. Sam Adams wouldn't. Of course, those guys were revolutionaries. These days we're just, you know, "good citizens" who obey the rules and move on. With that kind of behavior in the past, our country wouldn't even be here. But never mind.
Not convinced? Think of the reverse. Suppose Trump had meekly said he would accept the outcome with the smirking Hillarythe woman he has called a crook and who, for all intents and purposes, is onestanding only a few feet away? Wouldn't that, in the true sense, have invalidated everything he has been saying? #DraintheSwamp, my eye!
Now, as we all know, Trump has been here before, back in the primaries, when he made no guarantee he would accept the nominee of his party and, as I recall, received a round of boos at that debate for his non-declaration. He later went up in the polls despite those boos.
Will that happen this time? Not if the mainstream media has anything to do with it. As I write they are damning Trump forever with faint praiseor should I say they are "concern trolling" himby saying how well he was doing in the debate until he jumped that shark and betrayed everything our country stands for.
The implication here, of course, is that everyone should forgive Hillary Clinton after she is elected and just ignore what happened with the bogus FBI investigation. Good luck with that. More likely the road ahead will be extremely rocky with more WikiLeaks revelations (they could even be saving their more dramatic ones for after the election), not to mention defections from the FBI and elsewhere, subpoenas from Judicial Watch and others with inflammatory and illegal emails and documents appearing for years.
Okay, I'll say it. When Donald said he wouldn't necessarily accept the results of election 2016, he was doing us all a favor. The democratic republic about whose precariousness Franklin warned us at the founding is shaky indeed at this moment. Leaders have gone beyond the law, as the new Project Veritas videos painfully remind us once again. Only the toughest love can save our republic now.
Please see my post 59! Thanks!
Yes. Trump is coming.
Someone with good graphic skills should put Trump’s face on that famous painting of Washington crossing the Delaware.

No problem, MrEdd. We’re all FRiends here. :)
“If we were good citizens the elites would still fear us. Anything is possible now because the elites are ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN that we are feckless.”
I happened to be doing independent contract for an Israeli company when the Libyan civil war broke out. Qaddhaffi had his elite palace guard, NWO bureaucrats and his bought-and-paid-for southern mercenary army.
Qaddhafi’s mercenary troops and bureaucrats were slaughtered, dragged into the streets and shot or hanged from lampposts.
The Israelis had reports of Hillary screeching in horror as her NWO buddies were butchered and shoveled into mass graves. I can assure you that the elites are terrified of armed citizens.
The lesson for us is simple: Never give up your sidearms and rifles.
They hoped to coerce the groundswell movement supporting Trump into passively accepting their manipulation of the election. If Trump went along with their election fairness narrative, accepting a potential pre-arranged result, they believe the Trump supporters will acquiesce to fate and go along quietly. The leverage he holds is the unspoken potential of a grassroots revolt to develop, if the election results appear tainted.
Bernie’s prior ardent supporters are a large mass of very angry voters, cheated of their voice, the manipulation laid bare in recent revelations. The deception exposed, revealed the gigantic scope of their machinations to grasp power over the peoples of the country.
The separatist movement departing the RINO faction of the GOP, chose Trump as the non-affiliated leader, with the grit to tackle the entrenched power block. This is an organic opposition coalesced from diverse factions, coming together against a Thuggee infiltrated authority. This coalition strives for a peaceful transition of government if possible; but, transformation approaches regardless of the consequences.

Amazing article from 2012.
Geez MrEdd. Nine repeat posts? :)
Nixon was guaranteed the presidency in 1968 if he’s go along with the fraud. He knew the same fraud could be used to get him elected. And why do you think LBJ didn’t run in ‘68? He wasn’t supposed to be president anyway so he was happy with 5 years.
“Trump didnt say that but ...”
You’re correct. My interpretation was that he said he wasn’t going to promise right there in the debate that he would unconditionally accept the results.
He didn’t say he wouldn’t accept the results.
So?
Did the Dems complain when Gore didn't 'accept'; the Florida results?
True.
NBC tonight news had them talking about Trump's 'performance' and about Clinton's 'debate'.
This has to be some kind of record!
;^)
I shudda read ahead!
I would have loved to see Trump say “Not only might I not accept the results if Soros and his flying monkeys try any shenanigans, but anyone who is caught casting illegal ballots will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law without mercy and I have 7000 lawyers ready to examine the results in every state, so if you cheat you will get caught.”
Nice explanation. Very interesting.
And the truth is almost never inappropriate.
We stole it fair and square!!!
“The lesson for us is simple: Never give up your sidearms and rifles”...and know when to use them.
This is depressing.......latest 2016 projected electoral map.
Why the hell are you reposting blatant propaganda?
I think this is why he’s asking for more money.
