America needs Trump

Recent Chinese cyber-espionage against the U.S. has put China's spy network back in the spotlight. Despite the growing threat, presidents since Nixon have continued to pursue engagement with China as if our relationship with China is quite normal and beneficial.

It is neither.

The current U.S.-China relationship is not one of mutual prosperity; it's a parasitic one. A too trusting and naive America under Democrat leadership has maneuvered our country into a highly dysfunctional trade relationship. And President Obama is seeking another such trade relationship with Latin America countries.

What Cruzers need to remember is that the MSM will vilify Cruz and over play their hand. And like a fool I will knee jerk react and defend Cruz. I am a political slut.

Trump is a WINDBAG! In his book he says he would tax wealth.. not what you make, but what you have. Sounds like what a king would do.

Trump is a poseur. This blowhard should not be president. His cowardice vis a vis the recent draw Mohammed contest is revolting.

Doesn’t matter who we support. The msm will nail them to an upside down cross.

Accept their hate and turn it on them. Because Cruz is the ONLY one up there that dispises them like we do. If he doesn’t, he deserves an Acadmy Award for best actor in a political Fraud.

I think he hates them. If elected, their lives will suck.

I’ve started to not care. Perhaps i will withdraw from all political discourse because we live in age without statesmen or patriots. My opus would make a lot freepers happy.

I can relate. I tried but I just couldn’t do it. I will fight the liberals until I can’t. It’s probably futile. But I am not going to leave the world eventually knowing that I could have done something, regardless of how small, and turned away.

But some days I really want to just turn away.

For the moment. It’s assumed they will join once Congressional approval is not needed. That’s the whole point of TPP. It will set up a transnational framework that doesn’t leave beltway fingerprints on decisions like admitting China.

....”I like Trump and think he could be a key player in a sane, pro-American administration. However, I don’t see him as chief executive material. The guy is way too much of a loud-mouthed buffoon”.....

Well he is an entertainer... most of his business dealings are regarding building Casino’s, Golf Courses, Hotels and that which pertains to “entertainment” in one form or another.

I agree he wouldn’t fair well in Washington as Chief Executive....running a nation is NOT like running entertainment. Though it certainly looks like it! LOL.

"However America is messed up at the moment, and Trump is (saying) the things I very much support.

He may believe what he’s saying. He may be completely full of baloney.

My point is, nobody else is saying them. Nobody."

You believe him when he says what you want to hear. But he's said plenty of things that you seem to dismiss. Are those things not believable, or do you put a lot of stock in flip-flopping?

Trump has said that we MUST have universal healthcare.

He said he would raise taxes on the rich.

He called for impeachment of George W. Bush and said that Obama would go down as a great president (in the same interview).

Trump seems to have little respect for private property rights. He has twice tried to get the government involved to use eminent domain powers. One of those instances was an attempt to evict an elderly widow so he could build a limousine parking lot.

And then there is his statement that he is pro-choice. He has since flip-flopped on the issue, but continues to donate to leftwing candidates who are 100% in favor of baby-killing.

Last Month, Brown and Peters Introduced an Amendment to the Senate’s Fast Track Bill that Would Have Required Congressional Approval for Additional Countries Joining TPP....I’m not sure where that stands now if or not included yet.

Sheep don’t march, they herd together and bleat at the sheepdog for being mean to them.

Reagan’s rule of 80% is good enough for me.

Allow me to repeat what you said:

I will tell you this. There are enough of us that are NOT voting for anyone else barring him caught with a live boy/dead girl. So you can join us or the Dem is GOING to win. We are not voting for a lib republican. Ever. It’s not an idle threat. Romney proved it. Hardball.

I’m right there with you on 80 and say it often. Right now there is one guy running that can hit 80 without tying ones self in knots that would make a pre-gay boy scout wince at the complexity. Cruz. If you tie a pretty bow, you could add Walker in a pinch. but you have to go full on Gordian to put ANY of the rest at 80. On a good day. With a tailwind. And Angels driving T9 Cats towing them.

” It’s a fact. FACT that most of the right marched their asses into a booth and voted for a guy that personally gave his cash to an sbortion group who then threw in in the kitty to kill children.

They marched their asses into a booth and voted for a man that hired illegals got caught twice, exposed in the media and still hapt endangering his own family with them in his home.

They marched their asses into a booth and voted for a man that designed Obamacare and instituted it in Mass.

They marched their asses into a booth and voted for a man that passed and introduced America to Gay Marriage.

I dont feel like typing the entire list of rabid liberalism that is his record that people marched their asses into a booth and voted for. Because we all know it.”

Suitable for framing....

And YOU & I are still batting 1,000 regarding the November elections!

And our record will continue unbroken. America will remain broken. Because the people responsible will take no responsibility for their actions, nor admit their mistake.

Well they call for my head on a regular basis so I imagine it must be. I imagine for yours as well. Probably nothing to do with getting their stupidity thrown back in their faces. Language/truth is an offensive thing I guess.

Can’t shut us up with facts. Gotta do something.
