“It is so nice that the shackles have been taken off me and I can now fight for America the way I want to.” This was a tweet from Donald Trump this morning. What is Donald Trump’s idea of America? It’s not mine.
In my America, all men, and women, are created equal. In my America, white men are not superior, and blacks are not inferior. In my America, women are not objectified, and sexual assault would be severely punished. In my America, the rich would pay their fair share of taxes: paying nothing would not happen. In my America, there would no hatred and no violence. In my America, everyone would have health care equal to that of our government officials. In my America, the working class would be paid fair wages; sharing in the profits from their labor. In my America, our nation’s leader would not rush to war. In my America, our president would be respected, intelligent, and qualified to be the leader of the free world.
It was a guarantee that ‘spin doctor’ Kellyanne Conway would not be able to control Donald Trump’s temper for very long. He has now declared war not only against Bill and Hillary Clinton, he is attacking those in his own party who have found the courage to completely renounce him as their party’s candidate.
Even Paul Ryan, whose backbone is not yet stiff, refused to defend Trump any longer. He, McConnell, and Ted Cruz remain on Trump’s list of supporters, but that didn’t stop Trump from attacking one of his party’s leaders.
“Our very weak and ineffective leader, Paul Ryan, had a bad conference call where his members went wild at his disloyalty;” Trump said in a tweet.
“Disloyal R’s are far more difficult than Crooked Hillary. They come at you from all sides. They don’t know how to win – I will teach them,” he tweeted.
Trump could do stand-up comedy. Everything he says seriously is so ridiculous that he’s laughable.
Trump should be in jail. He has openly admitted that he bribed public officials, used money from his own ‘charity’ for personal reasons, and will be under indictment at the end of November when his “university” is scrutinized in a court of law.
The truth is that Trump is waving a white flag. Even he is not ignorant enough to know that his ambition to live in the White House is at an end. If the media had been honest, his campaign would have been over before the primaries began.
One politico was asked if Trump’s attacks on Sunday evening moved any voters to his camp. He replied that what Trump ranted about only appealed to his base. Today’s polls reveal this as truth. An average of eight available polls show that Hillary is now leading by 6.5 points. An NBC/Wall Street Journal Poll has Hillary leading by 14 points. Let’s just hope that they are accurate.
Thank you again for keeping the truth in the forefront of this election by reposting. And PLEASE Vote.
