In
general, the governing elites in DC have run rough shod over the majority of
the country who don't belong to a federally protected class. They have even run
rough shod over some protected classes, like old white guys and Vietnam Era
veterans. (I'm both). Republicans have been unable to make their case because
they are unable to take a hit from the Pravda Press and keep on coming. Trump's
one claim to fame is that he dictates his agenda to the liberal media. The
media does not dictate their agenda to him.
That said, what we
needed was a second Ronald Reagan. What we got instead is an aging confidence
trickster who's one talent was in great demand, but who has no other abilities.
I understand, and
feel myself, that, "I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it
anymore" feeling. For example, I was very disappointed that Republicans
did not connect the government shutdown with the disastrous roll out of
Obamacare. The Republicans shut down the government to get a one year delay in
the implementation of Obamacare. The "I told you so" moment should
have been used to pummel the president. Nobody had the guts to even try. That
failure to even make an argument locked us into the weakest position possible
on budget negotiations.
I would vote for
Trump as an independent political hatchet man in a heartbeat. Unfortunately,
he's running for president. Obama has set precedents of ignoring the
Constitution wherever and whenever possible. This is not the time for another
egotistical president with uncontrollable urges to retaliate against his
enemies with no regard for the law. Obama has placed the Constitution in the
Intensive Care Unit in just 7 reckless years. Two such presidents in a row will
kill the Constitution.
