This is really happening, people. Either Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump is going to be the next president of the United States.

Just saying it still feels strange, but then again, pretty much everything about this most shocking and chaotic of election seasons has been deeply surreal.

“You realize that Trump is also an Ivy Leaguer?”

Which Ivy Leaue school was that?

Oh gee, the vicious vile attacks against anything conservative or Republican don’t feel that great when flung back at you?

ESAD, Salon.

I am just throwing out a wild guess here but:

I seriously doubt that Trump gives two chits about what the losers at Salon think.

“Trump doesn’t have much foreign policy experience. At all.”

___________________________

He’s done business overseas. You don’t accomplish that without working with foreign governments.

How much international diplomatic experience did George W Bush have? McCain? Romney?

Trump is also going to have a cabinet. He’s smart enough to stock it with qualified, worthwhile people.

If leftist thugs repeatedly disrupt Trump rallies and cause chaos, Trump will win. The public will see who the real threats to democracy and free speech are, no matter who the MSM try to blame for the violence.

That is my hope. I also hope he can get past his ego to actually listen to them.

"Trump doesn’t have much foreign policy experience. At all."

Nor did most men elected to the presidency in the last 75 years: FDR, Carter, Reagan, Clinton, Bush II, and Obama. And Ike was a military man, not a diplomat.

Uh, I don’t want my president to be a “world” leader. Yeah, let’s have another Bush.

Saving Reagan... all disasters. Which is my point.

Mrs. Clinton should save the country from an ugly election by withdrawing, and moving to Vermont.

Isn't that a given?

Kudos to you.

And to those that this never dawned on..., why the hell didn't it?

Add to it the RNC, the GOPe, the DNC, the major media players...

I developed this graphic for just this purpose. If these folks are against Trump, why aren't you for him?
