America Is The Main Issue - And Response (4)

  • Tuesday, July 19, 2016

Many get tired of hearing this, but to stay at home on election day, vote Libertarian, or write in your favorite candidate, will insure that the issues of Libertarians and other points of view, will never be solved in your lifetime. Hillary Clinton's Supreme Court appointments will continue Obama's destruction for many years to come.

I fully understand that Donald Trump may not be your "guy", but the future of America should be your main priority. The Republican Party has been a major disappointment, but let's give a private citizen, who loves this country, a chance to repair the damage.

Please put aside your biases about Trump and vote for America by voting Republican.

If you're saying that we should vote for Republican candidates down the ballot, thae I can get behind that.  But if you're saying that we should vote for Donald Trump because he would be good for the future of America, then I can't support that.  Donald Trump is a traitor to the idea of America.   Donald Trump spits in the face of ideas that made America a great country.
He seeks to divide our nation along ethnic and religious lines rather than unite us.  He is a self-aggrandizing narcissist who lies every time he opens his mouth.   He is a mysogynist who only values women based on their sex appeal.   He has no moral compass; he wants to torture terrorists which would cause us to lose the moral high ground.  He mocks disabled people.  He idolizes Saddam Hussein.  He thinks a good economic strategy is to default on U.S. Treasury bonds which experts say would destroy the world's economy.  

He has shown contempt for the judiciary, undermining the system of checks and balances put in place by our founding fathers. He insulted John McCain saying that he wasn't a real war hero because he was captured.  He wants to order the military to commit war crimes. 

These items are only the tip of the iceberg.  I can understand the desire to not support Hillary Clinton, but anyone with a conscience could never support Donald Trump.  If your conscience tells you to vote for Gary Johnson, a write-in candidate, leave it blank, or even to vote for Hillary Clinton, then you should do that.  But no one with a moral compass could vote in good conscience for Donald Trump.  

R.J. Mitchell

Mr. Bogart, you are sadly disillusioned if you think Donald Trump loves America.  The only thing he loves is himself.    If elected, he will make America a laughingstock for the rest of the world.

Mr. Bogart, you are correct. Now let me attempt to sift through the liberal talking points of Mr. Mitchell. 

I believe Mr. Mitchell has confused Mr. Trump with the candidate from the other party.  Anyone who believes that the Democratic party is not the party of identity politics and pitting groups against another is simply not capable of observing reality.  Black lives matter, Al Sharpton, Black Panthers, and the KKK are all products of the Democratic Party, all with the mission of dividing the country along racial lines.  Of this there is no dispute, you can google it (tongue in cheek).  I find it humorous that any liberal would have the nerve to make a statement such as Mr. Trump lies every time he opens his mouth given the fact that Mrs. Clinton is probably the worst proven liar ever to seek office in this country. 

You state that Mr. Trump is a misogynist, however, one need only look at the strong women in the Trump organization at the highest levels of leadership to realize this is a straw-man argument meant to misdirect attention from the true fact that Mr. Trump is neither misogynistic nor racist and simply judges people based on performance and results. 

As far as torture goes, the feel good, love our terrorist brother, liberals who protested and sat out the Vietnam War have no concept of how to win a war.  It is a shame that most of the greatest generation, who gladly answered their countries call in the past are almost gone.  War is by its nature a dirty business, it is no place for cameras nor bleeding heart liberals.  The Democrats like to say the way to win a war is winning hearts and minds, real warriors will agree, as this is the best two places to shoot someone.  The generation that gave us Dr. Spock (Benjamin not Star-Trek) and the belief that spankings were bad and timeouts were good is the same generation that posits pouring water on someone's face to simulate drowning is the same as bamboo shoots under the fingernails.  

I would like to know where Mr. Trump ever advocated defaulting on treasury bonds, he said that Saddam Hussein was a bad guy, who was good at killing terrorists. 

The liberal judiciary that believes the bench is as good a place as any to create laws, and that the constitution should just be a guideline as opposed to the guiding doctrine of our country deserve to be held in contempt.  Mr. Trump has also released a list of fine constitutional jurists who would uphold the rule of law without attempting to legislate from the bench.  Where is Mrs. Clinton's list?  

In closing I find is laughable that someone could use the words moral compass and Hillary Clinton in the same paragraph.  Mr. Trump is a fine example of an American you need only to look and listen to his children and the humility and grace with which they speak to realize that they were raised and taught to be moral and compassionate.  A person's children are usually a good measure of the man. 

If this election came down to Hillary Clinton and Lucifer, I may have pause and consider voting for one of the nut-job third party candidates, however, that is not the choice before us so all I have to say to you is... 

Better get on the Trump train because it will be victorious in November and we will take a very important step in taking our country back from the godless progressive terrorists of the 60's.

Ms. Hill, 

America is already the laughingstock for the rest of the world thanks to Obama and Hillary Clinton.
