THANK YOU MR. TRUMP!
by Gerri Gibney on 04/10/16
My eyes have been opened since Donald Trump has thrown his hat into the ring of politics. First let me say, I am an unabashed lover of Donald Trump with all his warts and craziness. I, like so many others, have discovered there is an underlying truth to much of what he says. We instinctively know there is something very wrong with our government, and he has put his finger on it, even if he is not articulating it as well as I might want him to do. But, Mr. Trump has a plan, and I am confident the plan will work to bring him into the White House.
Power and money have driven our politics for a very long time. I am no Pollyanna, I don’t believe this just started, I am well aware that it has always been, and always will be. I also believe there are still some Patriots. However, the level of corruption has grown to a point where a confirmed Socialist can become a part of the national discussion and is giving the Democrat front runner a good run for her money. We have an avowed Marxist, who loathes America, as President for the last seven plus years. Now, many Americans are so disgusted they want a longtime backbench Independent, who is a consummate politician, who has no achievements to his name, who rails against capitalism as their next President? And, on the Republican side, two “outsiders” have risen to the top of the heap. How can this be? Very simple; Donald Trump has brought to the fore what is wrong with America, and how he is going to begin to mend her. The politicians are scared to death. Donald Trump knows where the money changers’ tables are and he is going to overturn them. They are afraid. By that I am speaking of both political parties and all the politicians who comprise them.
The will of the people is no longer the basis of our Republic, money is.
All Americans, for so long have been given the choice of one politician versus another politician. Election after election we have been given what the “Establishment” wants to give us and we have accepted their choice. We no longer think of a politician as a person who serves the people, the word “politician” is now a job description.
For your amusement, here are the dictionary definitions:
1. Somebody active in politics (somebody who actively or professionally engages in politics)
2. Government member (a member of a branch of government)
3. Somebody seeking personal power (U.S. – somebody whose main political motive is self-advancement and whose methods are often unscrupulous)
4. Schemer (somebody who manipulates relationships, especially in a workplace)
We are now content with a professional politician rather than a citizen politician. We’ve allowed it, and for the first time in many years we have a choice between a patriot and a politician; a citizen versus a politician and all hell has broken loose.
The other so-called “outsider” in this race is Ted Cruz. For all his talk about “Liberty and Freedom,” Senator Cruz is controlled by big money and their interests, and is no outsider. Take a look at some of his donors: https://www.yahoo.com/news/the-mystery-moneymen-behind-ted-cruzs-super-pacs-116037797361.html. Or take a look at the Goldman Sachs loan he conveniently forgot to list on his Senate campaign filings; http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/ted-cruz-didn-disclose-loan-goldman-sachs-report-article-1.2496526. And, there is still no answer about the $500,000 transferred from Mr. Cruz’ PAC “Keep the Promise” to Carly Fiorinia’s PAC. Why would one campaign give any money to another campaign? I believe it is hush money. He has shown in this campaign how easy it is for him to be swayed on a host of issues. He might be a Constitutionalist, but only when it works for him. Take when he accused Mr. Trump of being the inciter in the Chicago disturbances; Senator Cruz had no problem depriving Mr. Trump of his right to free speech.
A word of caution to Mr. Trump; government is not the answer to all of our social problems. Less government, less taxes, and no social engineering are the answers. Mr. Trump is on the right track when he speaks about giving the power back to the states in a variety of circumstances. He should keep on that track. As the leader of the REVOLUTION he should be speaking of the lofty ideals and ideas of our founders, and that he is not a career politician but is the Patriot to “Make America Great Again.” We are great, we’ve just gotten off the track, and he needs to remind us of that.
Donald Trump calls what he has started a “movement,” I think it is the beginning of a REVOLUTION. We are witnessing a battle for the very soul and ideal of America and it is starting with Patriot Donald Trump, for whether he knows it or not, he is awakening the American people to look at what has happened and what has gone wrong with the two political parties in America. They no longer desire what is best for America, but what is best for them.
Donald Trump will make America great again!
