It was great to witness UNLV's Presidential debate tonight. Great running in to many friends!
Trump ran the table and clearly explained his vision for making America safe and strong again. What a gamble it would be to vote for status quo failed government... more of the same of what dug us into the mess we're in today. Thank you to superb law enforcement personnel for keeping everyone safe tonight. Incredible job; incredibly tough task they accomplish - with a smile, no less!
Seems silly media sheep are all chomping down on one issue after this debate, at least according to all the reporters who hollered out this same question to me: "What about Trump not accepting the election results?” More power to Trump for explaining how vitally important the legitimacy of every election is to our democracy within our Republic.
What reasonable person would preemptively accept any and all hypothetical questions and conditions of any hypothetical election? Trump's answer was RIGHT.
Every American's sacred vote MUST be respected and legitimized in today's elections - but they must be FAIR elections. We're in the midst of proof of voter fraud and questionable - even violent - participatory elements in campaigns. That's why state legislators are now cracking down on voter fraud via tighter laws ensuring the security of our elections.
When Trump is pressed on this, it harkens back to all the GOP primary candidates who screamed at Trump to support the Republican nominee - no matter what - and Trump initially responded that he could, depending on fair treatment. That is WISE and INSIGHTFUL! Trump got screwed in that deal when he eventually pledged to support the nominee and then some of his fellow candidates turned tail and refused to reciprocate when Trump won.
Trump learned - why give opponents permission and incentive to act unfairly and cheat? It's shortsighted to commit to accepting the outcome of a race REGARDLESS of unscrupulous cheaters. How totally unfair that would be to the American voter!
Trump gave potential cheaters fair warning that we'll not give them any quarter. We'll hold them accountable. They'd better be on their toes. Cheaters will not win. Of course Trump will accept the legitimate outcome of a legitimate election! What the heck is so hard to understand about that?
- Sarah Palin
Yep - and it was ironic to have her unmasked as having paid folks to incite violence at Trump rallies then claim we were a Nation of laws.
It was also sweet how Trump stated that law was in place that made someone who had committed her crimes ineligible for the presidency, but there she was....ergo, system is rigged.
Anarchy Their ultimate goal!
;-)
Once again, our dear Sarah is right on, right on!!
Notice how the Left is whining that poll watchers are “intimidators”. Kind of like saying refs and umps ensuring games are played according to the rules are “intimidators”.
Yeah, funny how they don’t have a problem with UN *watchers* or Black Pampers polling place thugs, er, *watchers*, isn’t it?
Are there any ^internals^ within the “patriot-feed” that indicated ‘ILLary showed more exhibits of Parkinson’s Disease (tremors, control-motions, etc.)?
My guess from the outside (using my inside voice) is that the meds are working and she’ll be fine enough until around November 15th, one week after the election. Then, for ILLary, back to increased booze and anxiety pills — not a good combination.
As usual, she nails it.
The tide has turned.
We’re about to find out.
On a local talk radio show this morning, every call was about voter fraud and how it was great Trump called the liberals out on it.
The media pounced on the statement, thinking they had something to use against him - but the people agree with Trump.
Don’t hang your hat on that theory.
She is right. Trump is right. The “press” shills are making a tempest in a teapot out of this answer since they have nothing else to work on.
Idiots, creeps, dishonest, toadies, lickspittles all.
Word power increased again by one.
Surveys about whether people believe votes are accurately counted find that a small minority of voters trust the system, less than 30% this year, close to 10% in 2012.
Agreed.
But then we get little-Timmy Kaine. A man who can’t his own feet in a shoe store!
I was happy to see Trump had invited Sarah to the debate.
He’s a loyal guy and knows Sarah has played a valuable part in his success.
She gets everything right in her post. Donald will accept the legitimate outcome of a legitimate election.
As he said...he will wait and see.
Trump’s propensity for always managing to say something ‘controversial’ is a direct result of one thing: he tells the truth, and nobody is used to hearing the unvarnished truth from a politician.
The press is currently focused on his “unprecedented refusal” to unconditionally accept the results of the election.
But as soon as they realize the silliness of this ‘issue’, they will drop it and move on to the real bomb that Trump dropped last night: that he would appoint SC justices who would eventually reverse Roe v. Wade.
Geraldo said this was going to torpedo any chance Trump had of winning because 70% of Americans support Roe v. Wade.
I hope he is wrong, and I have an alternative outlook:
The American people saw last night a candidate running for president who will give an honest answer to a question (and the moral answer), and damn the torpedoes. He has shown time and time again that he will do this.
My hope is that the American people yearn for such a leader, and that his appeal as a relentlessly honest and courageous statesman will transcend political divisions over any single issue, such as abortion.
Perhaps I’m wrong, but during the entire debate I thought the glaring contrast between the two candidates had nothing to do with debate performance, knowledge, demeanor or disposition, or even their policy positions.
The contrast I saw regarded the fact that only one of the two candidates tells the truth.
