The problem is that people with the kind of views that Trump expressed during the campaign have been very thoroughly and deliberately excluded from government employment, think tanks and large corporations for decades. There simply is not anyone with any experience whose beliefs are remotely like Trump’s stated opinions.

It’s really unusual for a dissent to win the highest office with almost no fellow travelers in lower offices or an organized movement behind him.

Some will note that Ms. Powell is Coptic Christian; Christians who have been a target of Wahhabi Muslims (like former CIA Director Brennan), for a thousand years or so and whose churches and homes have been targeted by the Muslim Brotherhood even more viciously since Obama broke Morsi out of Jail and ordered Mubarak to put Mhalim Brotherhood Wahhabis in the front row at Al Azhar where Obama delivered his first speech to the World as president. Obama legitimized the hated and previously illegal Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt.

Powell is not likely to condone condemning her relatives to more the sacrilege of church burnings with Coptic Christians locked inside. One can hope that Powell’s first hand knowledge of the culture built upon Jihad, not violent or terrorist or extreme Islam, but, as Erdogan explained, Islam is Islam. It is all in the Quran, its Surah (chapters of the Quran), and Muhammed’s Hadith (or official citations, written by many since Muhammed was illiterate).

Powell, as an Egyptian native, should be a valuable asset since, like a notable number of Arab women, like the Coptic Christian Bridgette Gabriel may feel some sense of community. The Saudis, much as we all abhor most of what is prescribed by Sharia, are our and Israel’s and Ebypt’s allies in the Middle East, remain important to us. Powell is a good fit with the stylish Huma, born to a family of Muslim Brotherhood royalty, and bin-Talal’s Princess Ameera, who could be a movie star had she been born in the West, represent Western ideas. Princess Ameerah doesn’t cover her head and is becoming a crusader for women’s rights in a dying and despotic militaristic cult. Powell could be a brilliant and useful choice because she fits into the Arab culture. This attachment to her culture is, by the way, directly realated to why the framers of our Constitution required that our President be selected from those born on our sovereign territory and to parents who were citizens. Powell’s attachment to Egypt will always be part of her, but her parents, experiencing the evil of Islamic Law, Sharia, became citizens. Powell couldn’t be president, not more so than Cruz, Haley, Jindal, or Rubio, without an amendment or Constitutional violation, which was clearly the case with Obama, but her origins and commensurate understanding of Islam can be a benefit to our security.

A personal example: My children attended a private school whose headmaster was an Algerian Muslim. The headmaster was full of wisdom and always charming. Among our good friend was a family of Arab Christians. Part of that family, much decimated over the decades during several centuries, still lives near Haifa. As Arabs the Christian family’s father shared some events, usually dinners, with the headmaster’s family. The Christian father warned us that the headmaster, assuming familiarity that wasn’t necessarily shared, warned us of the hatred he had for our family and our very successful children, always couched in the language of doctrinal intolerance. We are Kuffars - “People of the Book”, unbelievers. The headmaster’s children are bright, handsome and beautiful, and had trouble in the Catholic high school they attended, trouble that I doubt Arab Christians don’t face. Ms. Powell will understand this, and unlike James Clapper, or so many other native-born executives in whatever branch, have no illusions about the real importance of Sharia.

President Trump has made what could be another brilliant move. Islam, to survive, must undergo its reformation. The Saudi Royal Family caught in protection scheme, much of it about money, and confusing to most for whom the program hasn’t been written, but whose authoritative voices are either confused, or intentionally confusing. We didn’t get the influence peddler Hillary, who told her daughter about the terrorist attack on Benghazi and several days later told the mother of one of the former Seals, who gave up his life because Hillary would not allow cross-border support, that she promised to prosecute the filmmaker who produced and directed the little video, corny but largely factual, about the life of Muhammed. We wouldn’t have known the truth but for Julian Assange, much as our intelligence agencies would like keep their perfidy secret from our public and Congress, even while, thanks to Hillary and Podesta, any 3rd-rate hacker who bought an exploit to Yahoo email or Gmail on the DarkNet, could be reading compartmented secret email communications. And virtually all our friends and enemies most certainly read those emails long ago.

Clearing the Swamp is not easy, and efforts to undermine the fumigation will certainly be attacked. The solution is education. Finding true experts won’t be easy, but starting with our Constitution and history, “From the Halls of Montezuma to the Shores of Tripoli” demonstrates that Jefferson, Madison, and Washington were quite familiar with the Bargary Pirates, who quoted the same Quran using the same phrases as they do today, in Fresno or Paris, or Tel Aviv or ...

Oh, it’s worse, all right. Princess Ivanka and her Prince Jared are at the root of all of this treasonous advice/pressure.

Listen to an interview with this FBI guy. It will make you realize just how dangerous these people are and what danger they are placing our country in. I skipped ahead to the point where the FBI guy starts speaking.
