Donald Trump's Secret Admirers
American Thinker ^ | December 2,2017 | Dan Truitt

Posted on 12/02/2017 10:15:12 AM PST by Hojczyk

It is indicative of how completely the left has taken over our major public organs and institutions, including the press, the entertainment industry, and Higher Ed, that many are embarrassed to admit to others the secret we carry around in our hearts like a treasure -- we absolutely love Donald Trump.

The other day I watched him lumber across the White House lawn, approaching the press, a hulking, scowling snapping turtle of a man. He was coming at the press from stage left, alternately looking away at something in the distance he evidently thought was of greater interest than the ink-stained wretches who snap at his heels like a pack of chihuahuas, then shifting gimlet eyes to his enemies in the Fourth Estate.

Watching Trump, I thought of the contrast between him and the svelte, smooth, athletically trim stride of the previous president, you know, the guy who just spent eight years doubling our national debt, setting the Middle East on fire, handcuffing our businesses with excessive regulations, siccing the IRS on his political opponents, and exacerbating racial tensions which had been relaxing on their own for decades and which culminated in his own election, forever putting the lie to the notion that America is an institutionally racist country.

I watched Trump, who walked like something out of Gorillas in the Mist, and I laughed. I laughed loudly, knowing that he was about to put the kabosh on some snooty, self-important journalist who is just as clueless as to how to handle the man as he was on that day in the summer of 2015 when he announced his run for president.

Man, this guy is fun.

Trump is loved by many, respected by many more, and not liked by many too.
But Trump still gets a whole lot of support from that last group..........who really don’t care for him.......because the D’s are SO DAMNED CORRUPT DISHONEST ANTI-Christian, ANTI-Catholic, Anti-Jewish, and just plain Anti-American... its nauseating.
(We on the more conservative side of things need to clean out our bad actors, too... such as McConnell, Ryan I think, mcShame for sure with his bff Lindsay, Collins, and a couple more......)
the American public is tired of politicans lying to us

I know this article is meant to be complimentary, but do not describe him as a turtle.

Great article.

The never Trumpsters in the media and on the internet have not learned this basic lesson about President Trump:

“I watched Trump, who walked like something out of Gorillas in the Mist, and I laughed. I laughed loudly, knowing that he was about to put the kabosh on some snooty, self-important journalist who is just as clueless as to how to handle the man as he was on that day in the summer of 2015 when he announced his run for president.”

Man, this guy is fun!

“In addition to the danger posed by their bite, the claws of the snapping turtle are quite sharp and can lacerate the flesh of a person attempting to handle them. One reason put forward for why snappers are so belligerent is because, unlike other turtles, they are too big to hide inside their own shell.”

Trump the best man for our day. The other choices were mostly not even close.

I adore him, and yes, I rarely tell anyone. A friend asked me the other night why, and I said, “I relate to him. I see myself in him.” She was baffled. She said I was nothing like him, nothing at all. I thought “Oh yes I am, you just can’t see it.” I don’t know how to express it. And that is odd, because self-expression is kind of a hobby of mine. But yes, it does seem like he always has a twinkle in his eye and only his supporters can see it. He says what he’s thinking, and he always hits back. I love the guy, I really do. One day, when he is gone, I will cry like I only cry over grandparents and pets.

Maybe because it is obvious he loves our country. He is a reflection of the USA and the left despises him for it.

I never, ever, heard Obama say how much he loved this country. He certainly tried to cut it down a notch or two. So going from that to Trump is such a contrast, some just don’t appreciate this because they take this country for granted.
