Folks, I am Discouraged (Vanity)

Posted on 10/10/2016 3:56:55 PM PDT by 2nd Amendment

Fellow Freepers, I need some encouragement about the 2016 Presidential Election. I've got the same sinking feeling that I had before Obama's 2 elections. I've stated before that Trump was not my 1st choice for the Republican nomination. But he won and I wholeheartedly endorse his campaign. All major media outlets (including Fox) has actively come out against him. A 12 yr old "hot mike" slang conversation is being used to destroy him. Paul Ryan and a host of other establishment Republicans are working to elect Hillary Clinton. Even after a brave and domineering debate performance the talking heads like Rove put him almost double digit down to one of the most corrupt individuals in American History. Americans seem content to pack the Supreme Court with people who don't believe in law. They are about to elect a President who set the Mideast aflame. She believes Christians only have the right to espouse their beliefs in a Church. SisterK and Stars and Stripes have faithfully that America wakes up before we leap into this precipice of moral extinction. I've said all this to say that I need encouragement. My fellow Christians say that I should not fret because God is in control. But I still worry about the pain that is about to reign down upon our beloved America. I know Donald Trump is flawed like all of us but he really believes in fighting for the neglected people in our country. Please give me some perspective on the next 20 some days ti the election. Thank all of you Freepers for the island of freedom you have carved out.

FR has never been a place devoted to negative conjecture, especially this close to a presidential election.

In the past Jim has been prone to heavy use of the zot for such posts.

Here’s the positive news. Trump is a fighter. He will not wuss out or back down. When people get ready to vote that will be remembered

I don’t see Cankles as over 46 in any major battleground state. I think 42-43 is more like her ceiling anywhere except WA, CA, MA and so on.

Listen to THIS excerpt from Winston Churchill when England was alone in 1940:

“We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the streets ... we shall NEVER surrender”

Lyn' Ted had not baggage?! Well, let's see... off the top of my memory, he was Canadian citizen just two years ago, lied to his state about that. At the time he said he wouldn't be eligible for the presidency--he was a constitutional scholar like Obama. Well, we see what that got us. He lied about financing his senate campaign, failed to disclose Goldman Sachs and other monies funding his campaign. He even lied about losing his health insurance. He joined the chorus to demand Trump commit to supporting the Republican nominee, then Lyn' Ted not only didn't, but he openly schemed and undermined Trump. He never really endorsed Trump. Lyn' Ted is scum. Lower than scum. He's a traitor to the party, to the country, to the principles he aligned himself to. Everything he's touched in the Senate has ended in spectacular failures. He is universally hated.

And Pence. Trump made good call on Pence, he's a perfect VP candidate, maybe. Not sure if he is wavering or it is media games, but if he does anything loyal to Trump, he joins Lyn' Ted. And a future? Very unlikely. Pence is nothing without Trump. He does not have the charism, the personality, the allure or whatever you want to call it to be president. He'd crash and burn like most candidates do. He and his supporters should count blessing that Trump picked him as VP and be happy with that.

" My fellow Christians say that I should not fret because God is in control."

You should fret. Whichever wins it is a chastisement on America by none other than ... God Himself (part of the withdrawing of graces process). Yes, God is in control and He knows when to bring the hammer down.

You know, If the sentiments on this board represent the average Trump supporter, I just might sit this one out.

You know what helps in situations like this?

The box office!
How do you know if a movie is going to be a hit? Do you wait for the box office returns or do you go by 'water cooler' chat and your own eyes when you see the YUUUUUGE lines in front of the theatre?

That's what I do. And I don't listen to what movie reviewers say.

So...what is the 'water cooler' chat you hear?

Mine is big time Trump support and disgust with The Unconvicted.

I see YUUUUUGE lines of Everyday Americans for Trump rallies/events with SRO.

and short lines of Sycophantic Dribblers at Her Feloniousness' rallies/events.

Do the math yourself! And you've been around long enough to know the media methodology. They want to bring Trump down as well as individual citizens with their biased coverage.

In microcosm...


It's a ballot box!
Who wins?

Buck up son, the play isn't over yet.

There was a cartoon kicking around that had a man and woman sitting on the bed, he with head in hands and she consoling him.

(close but definitely on point)
HE: Trump is Mean and he scares me.

SHE: There, There. I think we BOTH should start seeing other MEN.
