Thanks. I replied to the same post but the mods took mine down and rezeroed me like a new account. I guess I’m just too conservative and too politically incorrect.

Clarification isn't reversal.

You cannot sum up positions in a sound bite.

We can only obsess politically what the government has a say over.

The moral degeneration is not going to be resolved by government, but by churches preaching righteousness, which they have stopped doing.

Trump as a businessman donated to both political Parties because that is the nature of doing business in the U.S. today.

The Wall may be the last chance to reverse the decline of American culture.

It WOULD help if we had a SCOTUS and a fedcourt system not absolutely dedicated to establishing "constitutional" "rights" to every moral perversion known to man or beast. Your pastor does not nominate SCOTUS and fedjudges nor vote to confirm them. POTUS does the former and the Senate the latter.

See what happens if the Arkansas Medusa is elected and brings in with her a net of about five new Demonrat senators. Schmucky Chewmer drives her agenda in the Senate and SCOTUS further degenerates into the People's Social Revolutionary Directorate. Think you are uncomfortable with today's status quo? Just wait until the Hildebeast seizes power!

The People are letting this immorality occur, they have lost the idea of moral absolutes.

So, this type of moral depravity isn't changed with Government, the people must become moral and change the government.

Politicians are people too! We change government by applying blowtorches to their posteriors.

You aren't going to change society by changing government.

We are a Republic and get the government we deserve.

“All I’ve heard Cruz talk about for the last several weeks is Trump.”

He’s obsessed with Trump. Probably has a man crush on him.

[MayflowerMadam]

And when it comes to those states who’ve allowed Cruz to steal delegates in voter-less “elections”, he really, really LOVES states’ rights. It’s a situational ethics kind of thing for him.

“When a TG person uses the bathroom, most of the time no one knows.”

I don’t know any of ‘em (that I’m aware of), but I expect you’re right. They’re so intent on “being” women that it’s to their benefit to do whatever it takes to pass as one.

I figure that a lot more nastiness happens in men’s restrooms where predators troll for little boys.

No problemo... ;)

Sorry I took so long replying - I'm not here very much anymore.

Force the resignations/retirements of all nine members of SCOTUS, let me appoint their replacements and you won't recognize today's dismal status quo and you will again be living in the country envisioned by the Founding Fathers.

I won't try to speak for you but I don't deserve abortion on demand, perversion posing as marriage, gun grabbing, envirowhackoism, Bush the Elder, Clinton's two terms, Dubya's failures, two terms of Obozo and Trump vs. Hillary although in that event I will vote for Trump and then deserve what happens.

If Trump CANNOT carry Illinois, then I will preserve my relatively recent second stage political virginity by voting third party BUT my default position will be Trump.

Thomas is actually very sound.

[BlackElk]

I would happily leave Clarence Thomas on SCOTUS as an exception but a SCOTUS filled with 45-year olds who are articulate, scholarly, good writers like Scalia, is also a strong temptation. If Thomas is willing to be Chief Justice, that would also work for me as he could introduce the young uns to SCOTUS procedures and lead them. I don’t want ANY of our new justices dying on us but Thomas has certainly earned the right to stay and a promotion. God bless!
