Donald Trump's affection for the Mussolini statement, "It is better to live one day as a lion than 100 years as a sheep." reveals a mindset very much at odds with the Framers of our U.S. Constitution.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Oh stuff it, I have a feeling you wouldn't know a fascist if you fell over one.

The diagnosis of fascism can be seen here:

Our greatest presidents were just like Trump. They were called to duty from their apolitical lives by circumstance and love of Country. You are offended by Trump's ego but not your own , and wish to impose a will of logic and extrapolation so as to elect what amounts to comparatively inexperienced gurly-men whose testicles have only partially descended? Thats idiocy.

My second pick for the nomination was Fiorina. A truly great American.Never served a day in elective office.

Now if you cannot get off your purity kick, you will find yourself very much alone. Our greatest presidents were not political class animals who dedicated their lives to political careers. They worked at their politics part time when needed , and were quite content to occupy themselves with their own domestic business interests most of the time. And so those great ones had the skills which were evolved from living outside of politics. Today this had been mostly lost. Trump is actually in this tradition, a self made man, and one who knows how to manage large structures of hierarchy, and who is called by the People to execute a representative task. This is in the greatest traditions of America.

Since Trump is not a political career animal like all the others, he does not pass your scrutiny. As a matter of fact, those who pass your scrutiny can do so only because you buy the image they have created for you. They are manifest perfection , have no stink and are actually so pristine as to be unreal, not human, but true members of a political aristocracy. They are no better than ordinary Americans but have led you and a mistaken cadre of caterwauling others to think so.

I prefer the stinky human being who has the skill and heart to engage the presidency in a transcendent manner, in the tradition of American warriorship. And that is Donald Trump.

You can take your so called purity of purpose and stick it. I want a good president, not a saint.And most of America, including latinos, women and some democrats, any blue dogs that are still not gone agley into utopian Obama nationalist socialism, feel exactly the same way. Watch Trumps numbers soar and then you and those like you can continue to tremble as you do now.

Mr. Trump is an American Winston Churchill, more than adequately equipped to do the job that circumstances and duty have called him to perform.Your efforts to prevent that are futile.He will represent ALL Americans. That's why he will win.

Trump has no political past or record.He has never served in elective office. He has no record to criticize. America is going to nominate him.And that is a very good thing.

The resemblence is unavoidably striking, grim determination, and thats not what you call "ego." or Mussolini :

LMAO!!! Trump as Churchill???

We’ll file that one with the comparisons to Jesus, Moses, Washington, Jefferson and Gen. Patton.

He may very well win the nomination, but let’s not get too carried away here.

I’ve read a great deal written by and about W.S. Churchill. Trump is not Churchillian in any fashion.

Give Teddy Roosevelt a heavy dose of arrogance and the morals of an alley cat and you’d be getting close.
