5 Reasons Why Trump Beats Hillary

3/24/2016

0 Comments

 
Before we get into specifics as to why Donald Trump could beat Hillary for the presidency, let’s marvel at one amazing fact. The Donald will not only be battling the Democratic Party but the Republican Party too.

Say what you will about Trump, anybody who can raise the ire of the two major American political parties is catnip.

Here are his other pluses - five reasons as to why Trump could beat Clinton. (Most experts think she’ll probably beat him.)

1) With Donald’s anti-illegal-alien position, and his calling for a temporary ban on Muslims visiting or immigrating to America, all he needs is one major criminal/terrorist act from either group to separate him from politically-correct Hillary.

She, of course, is of the group and mindset who does not believe Islam has anything to do with ISIL, or with terrorism committed in the name of that religion. The latest outburst from the Religion of Peace is the bombings in Belgium that killed 31, while wounding 270 others.

She also thinks illegal aliens are A-OK in the USA. But she’ll have to defend horror stories like the one where four Guatemalan illegals are being held in Massachusetts, accused of gang rape. Sordid, preventable situations like this can only hurt Hillary and help Donald.

2) Hillary may end up facing criminal charges because of her email scandal. Hard to win when you’re heading for trial...

3) His main campaign theme “Make America Great Again” is a lot more compelling than her “Make America Whole Again.” (And let’s hope she means “whole” and not “hole.”)

4) Despite a lower official unemployment rate – which atrociously doesn’t take into account the millions of Americans who have given up looking for a job – most Americans are still feeling pinched in the wallet. Donald Trump has employed approximately 34,000 people in his various businesses. He has hands-on experience with creating jobs.

We know Hillary created at least one job. But, alas, the worker, Bryan Pagliano, to whom she allegedly paid $140,000 - so he could administer her private server for top secret State Department business - has been granted immunity from prosecution to spill the beans on her wayward ways. So she’s one and done (done in) in the employee stakes.

Thus, compared to Donald, her personnel decisions look abysmal. And Trump, don’t forget, has loads of successful executive management experience while Clinton has, um, Benghazi.

5) If Trump fights Hillary – he may win, lose, hard to say. As mentioned, most think she will win because she’s a woman, has a party behind her that is not fracturing like the GOP, has donors up the ying yang, and has the electoral “Obama coalition” to avail herself of.

But...

If Trump campaigns hard against Hillary, harder against the Republican Party establishment, even harder against donors, and, yes, harder still against CNN, MSNBC, FOX etc, and “elites” generally – he just might win. Many “average” Americans, whether Democrat, Independent, or Republican, are fed up with their leaders in politics, business, and in the media. They just might get a real kick out of Donald taking on all comers despite his being tagged as sexist and racist.

Now, how can people ignore all these perceived blots (and others not mentioned here) on, and of, his person? Frankly, as his millions of voters prove to date, they don’t care what he “is” – as defined by his detractors - they care what he will do.
​
And note: if he fights all the top brass in society, he’d be the underdog – a good position to be in - for America does love its underdogs.

Chicago PROTESTERS Pump Up Trump !

3/17/2016

0 Comments

 
On Friday March 12th, protesters shut down a Trump rally in Chicago by blocking an ambulance, tearing up signs, breaking car windows, bloodying at least two police officers, and scuffling with Trump backers.

CNN, which has been vexed at the seemingly inexorable rise of The Donald politically, is basically blaming Trump for inciting the protesters – as if he had a nefarious plan to have his own event shut down. Various announcers keep asking “is he promoting violence?"

Listen, if liberals and lefties find Trump’s speech discriminatory, non-inclusive, divisive, repugnant, vile, cruel, stupid, and callous, that does not give the perpetually “offended” and eternally aggrieved - in the name of “tolerance” - the right to prevent him from speaking his mind, wee though it may be. Irony is lost on these demonstrators, some of whom were Bernie Sanders supporters. And at least one slouch wore a T-Shirt “Vote 4 Trump You Get Jumped.”

The protesters, who acted like petulant preschoolers at the University of Illinois Pavilion, are jubilant, having closed Donald’s mouth, at least for an evening – but did they really win? Sure, for a few hours, but more likely than not leaners, independents, fence sitters and undecideds may opt for Trump in support of, if not the various politically-incorrect views held by the Manhattan mogul, then at least for his right to free speech as guaranteed by the First Amendment. Now, thanks to the little riot, many might conclude the naysayers are simply thuggish instigators intent on shutting down arguments they don't like.

So who, really, is intolerant here? Is Donald Trump wrong to insist that immigrants come here legally? Is it the politics of “division” when he avers that those in America illegally, be deported, for the result would be a unification of a country, a country consisting of Americans only? That he holds favor with Americans over illegal aliens? Is Donald Trump a fascist for recommending that Muslim immigration to the USA be temporarily halted until the States can figure out if some folks from the Religion of Peace are friend or foe?

One twenty-year old student, Kamran Siddiqui, opined “Trump represents everything...Chicago is not.”

Which is just as well - for Chicago is a city rife with debt and rampant with gang violence.
The student’s comments inadvertently made Trump look good.

But we can forgive someone at such a tender age with not knowing what’s what – and we can forgive Democrats Hillary and Bernie for blaming Trump because they preach the politics of envy, but should we give a pass to the likes of fellow-party-member Ted Cruz, who blames the victim, Donald Trump and his supporters for the antics of anti-Trumpists intent on shutting him up? Cruz knows better. He looks like a cheap-shot artist hoping to score some even cheaper political points. Kasich and Rubio also blamed Trump, but nobody is listening to them anyway...they’re just nags way back on the track.

It’s not shocking that a university setting would be intolerant to a conservative viewpoint, even if Trump’s conservatism is squishy at best. The majority of American universities and colleges preach diversity of race, religion, ethnicity, and sexuality – so long as all thought is of a left-wing-liberal-anti-American viewpoint. Academia is, in fact, averse to a diversity of opinions, ideas, theories, and thoughts.

Trump is no shrinking violet and as the talking-heads state, and not favorably, this is a campaign unlike any we've (they’ve) ever seen. They hate Trump because he doesn't bow to their nostrums of no border controls and of excusing the Religion of Peace for every act of terrorism committed in its name.

CNN praised Hillary Clinton’s conciliatory tweet - but it was a pro forma, perfunctory platitude:

We need to stand together against the forces of division and discrimination that are trying to divide America between “us” and “them.”

While the protesters in Chicago were wild and woolly, pundits and politicians, of Democratic and Republican Party stripes, calmly and coolly dismiss Trump, saying he doesn’t have the “temperament” to be President – as though the presidential personality is a cookie cutter deal, and all past presidents fit their preferred mold. Many laud President Obama as a cool cat, but just as many think he only gets pissed off at America, and only shows passion at fundraisers - while the rest of the time he “mails it in” - serenely and complacently - caving in to Cuba, Iran, Russia, and Syria.
Ultimately, however, who can deny he lied when he blatantly and shamefully fibbed about his health care plan.
“You can keep your doctor...You can keep your plan.”   

Who needs that kind of presidential “temperament?”

And every Chicago protester, liberal, and lefty would excuse this Obamaian travesty-trespass, would forgive and forget this atrocious falsehood on a subject so viscerally and vitally close to home, literally to one’s heart - and rampage instead against Trump for wanting to enforce American laws when it comes to immigration.

Hmm.

No matter.

Chicago protesters’ lives don’t matter. Trump absolutely won going away in the Super Tuesday March 15th iteration. And he took Illinois as part of his near sweep to boot.

World Whacks Donald Trump!

3/11/2016

When you tick off disparates like the Pope, Miley Cyrus, Mitt Romney, Justin Trudeau, and Jerry Springer You HAVE to be doing something right.

Congratulations, Donald Trump.

Speaking of ex-governor Mitt Romney, his diatribe against The Donald - was nothing more than rank jealousy and crank sour grapes. Mitt’s a two time loser in Presidential races.  Trump’s a first time pol, who could become President.

Romney, to his credit, absolutely cleaned Obama’s clock in their initial debate in 2012, but then he and his campaign virtually cratered. As Trump pointed out, if Mitt had expended as much energy and enthusiasm against opposition-party Democrat Obama, as he is now, against same-party Republican he, The Donald Big D, Mitt would have easily won four years ago. (And, by inference, Donald intimated that he would not have been needed to revive and restore the Republican Party and the USA.)

Trump and Ted Cruz are wiping the floor with the establishment-candidate Marco Rubio and the nice guy John Kasich, with the latest iteration-demonstration of this being the March 5th  ‘Super Saturday’ showdown.

Happily, basically, and thank the lord, finally, the Republican base is overthrowing the Republican donors and dimwits, the ‘establishment’ - that have led the Republican Party for decades to its deserved and self-served dénouement.

Looks good on the base, and the brass.

Trump and Cruz, to a much lesser extent, are growing the party, and this pisses off the elites. They want the party to be predictable, pliable – to be their own personal political plaything.

How’s this for mendacity? Initially, a few months back, the Republican Party bosses made Donald, who they didn’t think had a cat’s-ass chance to win, and the other Republican candidates, pledge to not run as independents, and now that Trump is close to winning the nomination, the brass  are looking at drafting a third party candidate – an independent - to run against Trump!

No wonder 99% of people hate politics.

Pathetically, but truly, the Republican leadership would rather have Hillary win, so long as they demolish Trump and disenfranchise his voters, if that means keeping control of what will be a rump - of a rancid party.

The Donald knows that the national Republican establishment doesn’t want to win with him. He knows, too, they’re AFRAID to win with him, fearing the ‘brand’ of the party will be thereby besmirched.

But the party, as constituted today – because of their non-opposition to Barack Obama legislation and executive action, has a terrible ‘brand.’ They are deemed:
Cheese-eating surrender monkeys by their base. Indeed, the ‘crème de la crème’ would rather lose, and say they fought the somewhat-sort-of-fairly-middling-to-good fight, as evidenced by the bland and feeble efforts of Bob Dole, John McCain, and our aforementioned Mitt. They’d rather lose to the Democrats than win with Donald J - and have the Trumpster triumphant – and in total control of party levers and levels.

Somebody, please, tell that party’s elite that winning ugly with Trump - is better than losing lovely with McCain...And somebody, pretty please, tell Romney, that turning on Trump, to impress his grandkids, is not a valid reason to turn traitor. (He revealed this motive in an interview with CNN’s Gloria Borger.)

Romney and current contestant, Marco Rubio, are quick to point out Trump’s business failures. And Trump has had many business ventures crash.
So what?
Everybody fails...No successful entrepreneur or inventor succeeds without failing, sometimes frequently. We learn from our failures. The only businessman/financier/stock guru who had an unblemished record was, uh, ahem, Bernie Madoff...

While on the topic of rogues, get this: Sacha Baron Cohen has given Donald Trump AIDS, in his new movie, The Brothers Grimsby, at least.
Geez, talk about unintended consequences. Now The Donald will be able to claim victim status. This should help him with the college-kid vote. They love the downtrodden and marginalized. To date, those kids have largely felt the Bern of solemn socialist, Bernie Sanders.

Here’s more roguish proof that Trump may, in fact, appear to be on the side of angels. Miley Cyrus is threatening to leave the States should Trump become President. Her over-the-top threat may be the final push that puts Trump over the top.  

And then there’s the Pope. Remember how he derided Trump for wanting to build a wall to stop illegal aliens coming into the States from Mexico? Well, now he’s stated that Arabs are invading Europe. He thinks Arabs coming to Europe will ‘enhance’ it. Whether Christianity will be enhanced in Sweden, Germany, Norway and the UK, is, perchance, iffy. Trump, for his part, has said he will defend Christianity - which is a lot more than the Pope is prepared to say – and do...

Amen to Trump.

He’ll need all the help he can get, both in prayer and in practice, to fight off his multitude of detractors.

(Actually a higher force may be listening, may be on Trump’s side. In last night’s Republican debate in Miami, nobody laid a hand on him.)

Canada - No Terrorist Left Behind

3/4/2016

0 Comments

 
Canada will soon have a new policy - No Terrorist Left Behind. Why? Because Justin Trudeau is now Prime Minister of that country. His Dad, Pierre Elliot Trudeau, was Prime Minister a few decades back, and was pretty much loathed by much of western Canada. But baby-Trudeau has a plan to unite all Canadians under his rule: to ensure terrorists that commit acts of terrorism against Canada can’t have their citizenship cancelled.

It should be pointed out that the legislation to be changed will apply to terroristic-folks with dual citizenship. So not only will divided loyalties be welcomed, those who want to divide other Canadians in half will be forgiven as well. Indeed, the only way a citizenship can be revoked is by a slip of the tongue. If you misrepresent yourself to a bureaucrat while applying for Canadian citizenship, you are a goner. But if you come in pouring forth goodwill and bonhomie, then later turn to terrorism and spew blood and guts, while settling into your new country, that’s ok, you are a keeper.

Seriously, what’s his principle here? That Canadian citizenship is to be debased to the lowest common denominator, that no standards of fidelity or loyalty to one’s new country be necessary? What message does this send to law-abiding new-to-the-country Canadians? Why should anyone care a whit for a country if that country, as demonstrated by its leader, doesn’t care a bit for itself?  

Justin Trudeau’s standards are weird and wildly inconsistent. He embraces kids’ gone-off-the-grid-into-violence into the bosom of the country, but if you are a pro-lifer, who doesn’t believe in abortion except in special circumstances, you have no place in his Liberal Party. You gotta promise to believe and vote pro-abortion “Pro Choice” to be a member of his party. So it’s OK for him to set standards for his clan, but to have no standards for the wider Canadian entity. Then again, the Canadian Liberal Party has always deemed itself la crème de la crème - above and beyond mere Canadians; their new leader reflects this.

The Liberals have a mantra for this acceptance of terrorists born in other countries who end up gaining Canadian citizenship: a Canadian is a Canadian. They fear having two levels of citizenship, where duals, unlike native-born people, could face banishment to their original homelands if they blew up a province or two, say...

But “A Canadian is a Canadian” is less a defensible philosophy than it is a sappy slogan. So, even if someone wants to destroy Canada, all is OK, hey, we’ll keep you KILLER, and not deport you to your land of birth. This is “tolerance” and “inclusivity” taken to their most ludicrous levels. (Of course, if you are a western Canadian, an Albertan, who believes in pipelines, and selling your oil, heavy oil, or natural gas to other parts of Canada, or to the world, via such pipelines you are a global-cooling, NO, global-warming, NO, CLIMATE CHANGE denier, worthy of derision and ridicule.)

Who, specifically, benefits from Trudeau’s dual-citizen-gone-traitor here forever and a day, play? Zakaria Amara, for one. He was born in Jordan, came to Canada and became the leader of the “Toronto 18” a group who planned to set off bombs on the Toronto Stock Exchange and on the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) – a vitally fundamental economic institution and a (used to be ) viscerally iconic, well regarded, Canadian security entity. 

To be fair to Trudeau, his insane permissiveness and let bygones-be-bygones attitude seems to permeate much of Canadian society. Legally there, things are bat-s—t crazy. Heard of Vince Li? He was on a bus and beheaded a man, fellow passenger, Timothy McLean in 2008. Experts said Li was sick in the head. Now the professionals say he’s feeling better, has changed his name, and that’s good enough for authorities – he’s been granted more freedom to live a (relatively) independent life outside of confinement.

This is not the Onion, this is not satire. You, seriously, cannot make this stuff up.
