STANDING for AMERICA

STANDING FOR AMERICA!!

I know, I know.  Every liberal is heading to Celebrationland armed with a machete to hack Trump's reputation to smithereens after the leaked video of his disgusting comment about a woman.  It's bad, no question about it.  There is that part of the mother and grandmother in me that would not attempt to excuse such a "piggish" (that's what they said) behavior and would probably smack him silly should I hear him say it to the females in my family.  BUT, my support for Trump is not, and never depended on shared values, never on the conduct of Donald Trump, the man.  I have always said that he is not perfect, that he is flawed, like any human being.  In that respect, however, as bigmouthed as he is, I don't think he ever attempted to portray himself as better or "holier than thou".

SO,  did this latest and dirtiest scandal just unleashed by the feral Clinton Camp to undermine his ever-growing lead in the polls shake my resolve to support Donald Trump? Call me a fool, but the earthquake did not bother me!   My values are mine and his are his.  I am not supporting a man who thinks like me, who worships like me, whose attitude  and values mirror my own.  No, because this election is not about the little me.  It is about the country that I love; it is about the future of a people that my children and grandchildren will be a part of and it is incumbent upon me to ensure that they have the America I came to call my own 38 years ago.  I am an American by choice.  I pledged allegiance to this country and my first duty is, with the little I could do, to ensure it survives.  This coming election, I will come to the polling booth with one name to fight for, AMERICA!  That battle can only be won with an army of patriots whose love for their country supersedes their dislike of their man-of-clay general:  DONALD TRUMP!

There are two opposing forces that matter this election and to be fair to the liberals, I will not give it the "good vs. evil" characterization because, obviously, "good" will have to be stretched to shreds to fit either of them,  give or take a few personal differences.    But there is one compelling yardstick  by which I will  measure who will be best to lead this country in the next four years of struggle it definitely faces:  LOVE FOR AMERICA!  That is one benchmark that will not fail and establishes a startling contrast between Trump and Clinton.  I think that is the prototype that will spell a paradigm shift in people's way of thinking because Trump will always land on top of the scorecard if we can all open our minds and be honest with ourselves.  Donald Trump, with all his billions, can live a life of untold luxury many lifetimes over, yet, he exposed himself to the ignominy of derision, lies, name-calling, mud-slinging, and downright hatred of those who dislike him because he is worried about where this country is going.  The socialist ideologues of this country (like Hillary Clinton),  with the help of the world's plutocrats are trying to drag the country into a world of their own making where oligarchy and the New World Order hold the baton of power; where the American Constitution is a despised and forgotten archaic document penned by forgotten, idealistic men of a bygone era; where freedoms fought for by valiant men who gave their all, are trampled upon the halls of power of lies and corruption.   That is, in a simple, abbreviated nutshell,  Hillary's America!

We have a crucial choice to make this coming election,  my fellow Americans:  Listen to the exaggerated tales of imperfections, misrepresented or otherwise, of those who love to paint Trump with all the varied colors of hate- misogynist, sexist, racist, xenophobic, etc.  Ignore the writings on the wall and give your loved ones a future of open borders, of illegal immigrants who will take all you have worked for away from your family that deserves the fruit of your labors.  Anticipate a country without freedoms cemented by Clinton's appointment of ultra-liberal Supreme Court justices who will decimate all the values this country has stood for and for which untold lives have been sacrificed to preserve.  Make abortion of the helpless unborn be the norm and get used to the horrors of terrorist attacks as Hillary intensifies the unvetted entry of Muslim refugees who are changing Europe's social, cultural,  and economic landscape right now.  Get used to daily news of rapes, criminalities, Sharia law, and trampling of your rights as citizens of this country because Muslim domination has marched unchecked  into our shores.  Adapt to the lies and forget your long-held sublime belief that all are equal under the law, for the person you have chosen will always hold herself above the rest of us and in her corrupt, grossly dishonest, and inept rule, sprinkled with a good dose of lies at every turn, will sell this country and all our rights, piece by piece to the highest bidder.  Case in point:  the sale of 20% of America's uranium deposit to Russia, one of her numerous influence peddling activities as Secretary of State.  If you think as Americans we could hold her accountable once she is in office, think again!  If she is above the law now, if the media is under her thumb now, if she has control of the different heads of departments of the U.S. government who shamelessly cover up all her infringement of established laws now, do you honestly believe anything would improve once she is safely entrenched in that coveted seat in the Oval Office?  If your answer is "yes", dream on!

The other choice:  TRUMP!  Yes, the brash, the loud- mouthed braggart, the
offensive, insulting misogynist or whatever irritating, annoying, description you want to label him.  His one redeeming quality and for which no one can take away from him is his unapologetic LOVE for AMERICA and for which his policies are carefully crafted:  Border walls to stem the tide of illegal immigration that brings criminal elements and illegal drugs to this country; effective vetting process before Muslim refugees that could bring in terrorist elements are allowed to come;  the preservation of Freedom and rights of Americans with the appointment of conservative Supreme Court Justices;  reversing the questionable Executive Orders signed by Obama, including the repeal of Obamacare; strengthening our military and assuring that our Veterans receive the financial and medical care they desperately need; providing an effective, common sense leadership that will restore American standing in the halls of world power; bringing jobs back to America and creating a solid economic platform that will ensure our unemployed citizens are provided jobs to support their families;  putting AMERICA FIRST by ensuring our safety, economic security, and our basic FREEDOMS, including the 2nd amendment,  are upheld and maintained in every aspect of American life.

Oh, I know what you'll say:  Tall order!  Not at all!  Besides, what have you got to lose?  Hillary has spent decades in different government positions with no laudable accomplishment, positions she used to advance her agenda of ruthless power and acquisition of wealth and personal gain for self-aggrandizement.  That is her track record sprinkled with a healthy dose of massive lies,  and if you think she will change as she achieves her loftiest goal, then I will bet my bottom dollar against you if I were a betting man (woman).  Hillary is nothing but the face of greed that she slyly covered with honeyed words of deceit to accomplish her goal of ultimate power.  Trump?  HE WILL DELIVER because he is a man of action and he hates to lose!  But more than that,  it is because of this one incontrovertible truth, the truth that makes him tick:  HE IS A PATRIOT;  HE LOVES AMERICA!  If everything is equal between him and Hillary and this is the main deciding point this coming election, with no second thought, in a nano heartbeat and with no regrets, I will cast my priceless vote for that flawed, imperfect man:  TRUMP, all the way to the White House!!!  #IAMSTILL DEPLORABLEANDMAKENOAPOLOGIES!
