Is Donald Trump my President...?
~~~~~~~
I "get" that it isn't a perfect flow chart. It would have been more accurate to say "are you a citizen of the United States?", rather than "Do you live in the United States".

Unhappy Hillary supporters...
~~~~~~~
I'm not sure that the diaper pin is worn so much by "Hillary Supporters" as it is by "Trump Opponents", but they may be one in the same...
I have no problem with protest. I just wish that the "protestors" would think a little bit before doing what they do. These people are being driven by the media and a few folks in Hollyweird, I think.
Trump hasn't even taken office and they are going berserk.
You would think that people as smart as those on the Left claim to be would wait until he actually does something they disagree with before protesting. They are protesting words. They are protesting "what might become...". They are protesting their gravy train being disrupted. They are protesting their fast slide to the dark depths of Socialism being interrupted. They are protesting the end of the time when calling someone they disagree with "Racist" will suddenly get them their way.
They are driven by emotion. Always have been.
This is why they can't be taken seriously.

The riots of '08 and '12...
~~~~~~~~
Damned privileged white males... Just can't control themselves.
Screaming for revolution...
~~~~~~~
From Kevin A. : "The skinny jean and man bun revolt of 2016. They'll conduct ops out of FOB Safe Space and be armed with fully automatic frappe machines with a special psyops unit waiving rainbow flags and spewing sophomoric chants. Winter is coming."
From Bill S. Jr. : "Yeah...I remember back in 2008 when Obama was elected, how crazy it was with all those racist conservatives rioted in the streets all over the country, blocking traffic, burning things, chanting racist epithets...made me so ashamed that I was was a white male who failed in my social responsibility by not voting for Obama.
Wait, my bad, that was in 2012, when I failed the second time to do the right thing. THAT'S when the racist conservatives rioted following Obama'a re-election. Again, I was so ashamed.
Oh, hey, wait...I must have been confused by watching these riots going on since Trump was elected. Kinda like landing under sniper fire in Bosnia. There were no riots when Obama was elected! What am I thinking? Riots are strictly a tool of the progressive, tolerant, peaceful, constructive left! Sheesh. Never mind. I am not ashamed."
From Eric M. : "They would not be so afraid if they had guns! What is even more interesting is that these ae the same people who are anti gun for the public because the police are here to protect you. The next breath they are rioting agaist the police because of "brutatlity". So they are supposed to call the police that they don't trust when they need help because only the police they hate have guns?"
~~~~~~~
Trump is a 2A guy... I think he gets it.
Position paper from his campaign website:
Second Amendment
View Mr. Trump's position, here.
- Defend the Second Amendment of our Constitution. The right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed upon. Period.
- Nominate United States Supreme Court justices that will abide by the rule of law and the Constitution of the United States that includes upholding the Second Amendment.
- Enforce the laws on the books. We need to get serious about prosecuting violent criminals.
- Expand and bring back programs like Project Exile and get gang members and drug dealers off the street. When we do, crime will go down and our cities and communities will be safer places to live.
- Empower law-abiding gun owners to defend themselves. Law enforcement does a tremendous job, but they can’t be everywhere all of the time.
- Fix our broken mental health system. All of the tragic mass murders that occurred in the past several years have something in common – there were red flags that were ignored. We can’t allow that to continue. We must expand treatment programs, and reform the laws to make it easier to take preventive action to save innocent lives. Most people with mental health problems are not violent, but just need help, and these reforms will help everyone.
- Defend the rights of law-abiding gun owners:
- Military bases and recruiting centers - to have a strong military, we need to allow them to defend themselves
- National right to carry – should be legal in all 50 states
- Background checks - we need to fix the system we have and make it work as intended. What we don’t need to do is expand a broken system.
- Gun and magazine bans - the government has no business dictating what types of firearms good, honest people are allowed to own.
I think we're going to be alright. ;)

Reaching across the aisle...
~~~~~~~~
Ambassador to Libya... That right there is some funny shit.
No more need to bash on Hillary, I guess. Going to have to find new material. ;)
Who would have thought...?
~~~~~~
I'm watching my Liberal friends destroy themselves on Social Media this morning. I won't say a word. They are all insane.
Do they realize that they could have run anyone other than Hillary and won?
She is toxic.
They wanted to have the first female President. That was far more important than the substance of the person they ran. Surely they could have run a female other than Clinton, Warren or Wassermann-Schultz? LOL. Never mind.
They had to have the first "mixed race President who appears to be black"... Their priorities aren't good governance. Haven't been for years. Their priorities are making America believe that she is a shithole and that she is an abuser of people and their dignity. The Left doesn't realize that there are two sides to every story. Two sides to every coin. There are more beliefs in America than just the Liberal belief.
Liberals are spoiled brats. They are proving it this morning.
They did this to themselves. They will be disappointed again when they discover that Canada has immigration laws and that the Canadians enforce those laws. They don't want any more crying, whining, teeth-gnashing Liberals up in the Great White North.
Now they will spend the next years trying to prevent Trump governing. Like they did with Bush II. And like they tried to accuse the Right of doing with obama. I hope History gets this right. Amazing.
Congratulations, Mr. Trump. Rock on.

Not sure what this is...
~~~~~~~
Yes, of course. It's all about the dignity.
I try hard not to say it out loud, but... My God! These people are stupid. And there are a lot of them. Not only are their morality and ethics situational, apparently all of their beliefs are, too. Must be nice to live a life where you can make up the rules as you roll along, and change them any time you decide you don't like them. ;)
If you have studied the issues and have made an educated determination of who you believe will be best at leading this country for the next 4 years, or until they are impeached, by all means, go out and vote today. If you are waiting for the guy who picks you up in the church van to take you to breakfast at the Union Hall before driving you to the polls to tell you who to vote for, please, stay home.
Making my coffee now. Gonna take a shower, then I'm going to ride my Harley up to the church to vote. Rock on.

Hillary most ethical leader...
Hillary Clinton is one of the most ethical (and most lied about) political leaders in America
This essay was first published on BNR in
January, 2016, and amassed more than half a million shares, making
it the most popular article about Hillary Clinton of the campaign. It is
reprinted below in full and updated for the general election.
(UPDATE: This version has another 140,000+ shares, demonstrating the
enduring demand for content that challenges pervasive anti-Clinton
narratives.)

Democrats are sick and tired of the endless lies about
Hillary Clinton, the character attacks, the distortions of her record,
the contorted caricature portrayed in the media. They want an unfiltered
connection to her without the prism of GOP-style talking points and
false frames.If the headline of this piece blows some minds, you can thank three decades of relentless lies and smears by the conservative attack machine and its corporate media enablers, who have labored to create an aura of corruption around Hillary Clinton. Her detractors on the right, left and center reel off a laundry list of unsupported accusations with an air of absolute authority, as though it is simply a given that she is a terrible, horrible, no-good human being.
Read the rest of the article here...
~~~~~~~~
At first I thought this was satire. I'm not familiar with Shareblue. Anyway, I suspect that it was written with a straight face. Her followers believe in her. They believe with a religious intensity. She is their Queen, their Supreme Leader...
At this very moment Hillary, and probably the majority of her staff are, or soon will be, under investigation. It can't be swept under the rug any longer. They got caught. Perhaps Karma is finally coming around to bite her on the ass?
Role models for your daughters...
And...
There is this good article over at National Review... It talks about Hillary as a role model for your daughters, as well as touching on other topics. Well articulated ideas about the Left. Do yourself a favor, read it. ;)
"Democrats have traded a sense of national identity for allegiance to race, class, and gender identity."
"Only those in willful denial can continue to reject the overwhelming evidence that Mrs. Clinton is essentially a crook, a person prone to chronic lying, and, worst of all, one who betrayed America’s best interests for petty personal gain."
It isn't a long article.

For every argument the media make against Trump, Hillary’s worse.
(1) Eleven years ago, Trump said on a secretly recorded tape that celebrities can do anything — even grab a woman’s p*ssy.
Hillary, born-again Victorian virgin, campaigns with Beyonce, who performs a duet with the words “curvalicious, p*ssy served delicious.”
Hillary is thrilled to have the support of Madonna — who has publicly offered to give blow jobs to anyone who votes for Hillary. (She’ll even remove her teeth!)
Hillary’s campaign has deployed Miley Cyrus to canvas for her — when Cyrus is not busy inviting men in the audience to reach up and grab her p*ssy. (Here’s a video of delicate flower Miley Cyrus in action.)
When Vernon Jordan was asked by CBS’ Mike Wallace what he talked about while golfing with Bill Clinton — aka Hillary’s husband — he answered: “P*ssy.”
Oh, and 11 years before Teddy Kennedy ran for president as the Conscience of the Democratic Party — he killed a girl. After grabbing her p*ssy.
(2) Trump’s a sexual predator!
Hillary’s husband is a well-established rapist, groper and pants-dropper. She’s his fixer.
Unlike the serial predations of her husband, leveled repeatedly throughout the decades, the timing of these 11th-hour allegations against Trump make them highly suspect.
Recall that The New York Times spent months investigating Trump’s treatment of women earlier this year. The Newspaper of Record put its best reporters on the job, interviewed a dozen women, and the paper splashed the story on its front page. But the best the Times could come up with was a story about Trump, as a bachelor, publicly praising a model for looking great in a bikini at his pool party. Then they dated. The horror.
Five months later, just days before the election, there doesn’t seem to be a female Democrat who isn’t claiming to have been groped by Trump — and getting loads of fawning publicity.
(3) Trump doesn’t give enough to charity.
The media only counts “charitable giving” if it can be taken as a tax deduction with the IRS. When Trump spent time and money saving a Georgia family farm from foreclosure in the 1980s, for example, he didn’t get any tax write-off.
Hillary, by contrast, was a big philanthropist because, at about the same time, she was taking a deduction for donations of Bill’s used underwear — the modern equivalent of smallpox-laden blankets. Today, the munificent Clinton Foundation spends less than 10 percent of its revenues on actual charity, using about 90 percent for salaries, offices and travel.
(4) Several of Trump’s businesses went bankrupt.
Trump has created or helped create hundreds of businesses. Fewer than 10 went bankrupt. Hillary had one business, Whitewater Development Corp., and it went bankrupt — after ripping off scores of ordinary Americans. Also, a dozen prominent Arkansans went to prison in connection with sleazy financial transactions involving Whitewater.
(5) Trump University was a scam!
Approximately 10,000 graduates of Trump University were thrilled with the program and said so in writing. But a law firm that paid Hillary and Bill Clinton $675,000 for three speeches managed to find a handful of disgruntled students to be the named plaintiffs in a class-action lawsuit against it.
Trump University was a minuscule portion of Trump’s portfolio. Whitewater was a huge part of Bill and Hillary’s get-rich-quick schemes, scamming the elderly, retirees and working-class Americans for the money-hungry Clintons.
As described by The Washington Post, people who bought property from the Whitewater Development Corp. were required to submit a down payment, followed by monthly payments, until the entire purchase price of the property was paid off. But if buyers missed a single payment for any reason, the entire transaction would be deemed null and void, and the property, as well as all prior payments, would be forfeited to the Whitewater corporation. No foreclosure proceeding, no court hearing, no due process.
More than half of Whitewater’s customers lost their entire investment. (See “Whitewater Repossessions; Sales Practice Benefited Clintons, Partners,” The Washington Post, April 21, 1994.)
Though Hillary had long claimed to have nothing to do with the operation of the business, when the books were finally opened, it turned out that the monthly checks were mailed to the Whitewater Development Corp. — “care of Hillary Rodham Clinton.” (See “Records Show Wider Role for Hillary Clinton; Whitewater Papers Detail Involvement,” The Washington Post, April 21, 1994.)
(6) We can’t allow Trump access to nuclear codes!
Hillary is the one who is champing at the bit to go to war with Russia, which, I am reliably informed, is a nuclear power.
At least Hillary’s adept at dealing with sensitive digital information. Huma! Quick! Are the nuclear launch codes on my Blackberry, my desktop thingy or my Facebook page?
Compared to Hillary, we’d be safer if the nuclear codes were held by Miley Cyrus (unless she kept them in her p*ssy).
(7) Trump’s temperament will get us into World War III.
Hillary’s temperament drove her to push for intervention in the Libyan civil war against Moammar Gadhafi for the sole purpose of giving her a foreign policy success that could be all her own.
Obama was skeptical. Libya was Hillary’s baby. (Sidney Blumenthal’s email to Hillary: “First, brava! This is a historic moment and you will be credited for realizing it.”)
After Gadhafi was killed, Hillary’s temperament led her to go on TV and laughingly say, “We came. We saw. He died.”
Unfortunately, Hillary hadn’t given the slightest thought to what would come next. What came next was: the Muslim Brotherhood, the murder of Americans in Benghazi and millions of refugees pouring into Western Europe.
(8) Trump failed to denounce David Duke with the ferocity deemed sufficient by our media.
No one even knows if Duke actually exists or is just a phantom produced by the media every four years to smear Republicans.
I know that no one has ever been incited to commit murder after listening to a David Duke speech. Lots of people have been murdered by someone who’d just heard an Al Sharpton speech: seven at Freddy’s Fashion Mart in Harlem, and one Orthodox Jew, plus one Italian mistaken for a Jew, in Crown Heights.
Hillary has not disavowed Sharpton — nor would our media be so rude as to ask.
The mother of Ferguson thug Mike Brown, Lesley McSpadden, campaigns with Hillary — she even took the stage at the Democratic National Convention. The father of Omar Mateen, the Orlando nightclub shooter, appeared on stage behind Hillary at a rally.
If the media won’t ask her to “disavow” the relatives of criminals and terrorists featured at her events, could they at least ask her if she approves of their parenting techniques?
(9) Trump is a “racist” because of his plan to remove Muslim jihadists, Mexican drug dealers and rapists from our country.
Apart from the fact that “drug dealer,” “rapist” and “jihadist” are not races, we didn’t do anything to Muslims or Mexicans, except send them billions of dollars in foreign aid. The only “racism” Americans care about is that toward black Americans. We did something to them.
Hillary asks blacks to vote for her, then vows to bring in millions of Muslims and Mexicans to take their jobs — the ones that “Americans just won’t do.” That’s racism.
(10) Trump “fat-shamed” Miss Universe!
No, he didn’t — he saved her crown and she was grateful. It’s on tape.
But more importantly, the Miss Universe in question is Alicia Machado, well-known in Venezuela as a publicity-seeking clown.
Machado is credibly accused of: driving the getaway car in an attempted murder; threatening to kill a federal judge; and being the baby mama to drug cartel kingpin Gerardo Alvarez-Vazquez, who was on the State Department’s “Most Wanted” list under — let’s see, checking my notes — Hillary Clinton.
Until 1975, everyone would have realized that it’s stupid to bring in single mothers with no marketable job skills, to add to the dependent class. If we did bring them in, politicians wouldn’t proudly introduce them at rallies.
But Machado is Hillary’s model immigrant. Her only job skill is voting. Upside: Hillary gets another vote. Downside: You’ll be supporting Machado and her anchor baby for the rest of their lives, America.
(11) Trump is challenging the very foundation of our democracy by saying elections are rigged!
They are rigged — ask former Sen. Norm Coleman of Minnesota, whose 2008 election was provably stolen from him when more than a thousand ineligible felons voted for Al Franken in a race Coleman lost by 312 votes. (At least it wasn’t an important election: Franken provided the 60th, and deciding, vote to pass Obamacare.)
In any event, Hillary says the election is rigged, too — by the Russkies!
The Democrats and the media have gone full John Birch Society on us. There’s a fifth column in America — and their leader is Donald Trump!!!
This is a marked departure from their previous cosmopolitan sangfroid about communism. We could have really used this fighting spirit during the Cold War. Instead, we got Jimmy Carter warning Americans about their “inordinate fear of communism.”
Today, bad-ass, eye-rolling journalists are somberly announcing: “I have in my hand a list — a list of Donald Trump supporters, who are a conscious, articulate instrument of the Russian conspiracy …”
(12) Trump is shallow, has a microscopic attention span and has not studied political issues deeply.
On the other hand, he has a good heart, good judgment and wants the right outcome for America: limits on immigration, fair trade deals, the elimination of Wall Street tax breaks and no more pointless Middle East wars.
Hillary doesn’t want any of these things. She is good at memorizing all her little facts, but is deeply evil. She wakes up early in the morning to make sure she does the wrong thing for America.
(13) Trump has personal baggage.
This election is not about Trump. It’s never been about Trump. Anyone running on his platform of putting Americans first would be torn to shreds.
There are probably lots of bad things Trump’s done in his personal life in the past. The ruling class wants Hillary to do bad things to our country in the future.
