GOOD POINT: Hillary outspent Trump by hundreds of millions and still lost.

Plus the Halfrican put the entire US intel apparat at her disposal.

And the obedient MSM reported on her endless crooked campaign schemes.

“I immigrated to the United States in 92 from Canada, i’ll be sticking around.”

Good for you. You seem to have a bit more good sense than some Americans. It has been said over and over, there is no other place to go. It’s Heaven or hell, your choice and it starts right here in the US of A. You either live like you desire Heaven, and find it, or you aspire to the other, and it too you can find.

It is all found under the principle of reap what you sow. Seek and ye shall find, knock and it shall be opened unto you, ask and ye shall receive. Your choice. May we choose wisely.

Agreed. At some point President Trump may just decide to quit playing nice. And yes all you lib lurkers out there, the past couple of years, in spite of all the losses and embarrassments the leftists/fascist/globalists have endured, that was Trump (the business man) playing nice.

If he decides to go full-throttle, to be the outsider, non-establishment guy he really is, it will be a bloodbath. He could say "screw it" to a 2020 run and decide to start using, really using, all the power at his command.

We all know the left has been crying wolf about anything and everything - virtually all imagined. But what if President Trump stepped aside, even a little bit, and let ruthless businessman Trump take the reins for a bit? What if he actually did start using Federal agencies and his own personal contacts and power? Not just to get things done that he knows we (the US) need to get done, but as payback for some of the excrement he's had to put up with. What if he pushed back by weaponizing various agencies the way Clinton/obama did?

Right now President Trump is trying to drain the swamp in a reasonably orderly fashion. At some point though, he may say eff-it and dynamite the dam - it'll be chaos downstream, and the whole smelly mess will spill out for everyone to see.

“If Tom Steyer is still alive 24 hours after the House passes an impeachment, the Democrats will win and the US will be an openly Communist nation in your lifetime.“

Why is that, exactly. I fail to see any connection between the first part of that sentence and the second.

The Democratic Party is just a front for a collection of billionaires and their interests.

So because one of them lives a day after articles of impeachment then there’s a conviction in the senate? Seems like a pretty weak link to me.

If Trump does get impeached and there is momentum in the Senate to remove him, we will have a war. At home and abroad.

Trump has put his and his family’s life, liberty and property on the line. Although he may not have realized it when he signed up for the job, he should know by now that the commies won’t just leave him alone on a pretty little vacation island. For Trump, this is not only about preserving the nation, but saving his own neck. A war will be necessary to invoke martial law and execute the traitors.

I realize that Trump doesn’t want to invoke emergency powers. But if he doesn’t, we are going to get a very bloody civil war.

Trump is just a proxy for every American who doesn’t hate America.

They’re not after him. They’re after us. He’s just in the way.

“They’re after us”

Absolutely. The commies would love it if Trump sells out and caves. But, I think Trump knows at this point he can’t give in and no matter what happens, the Left wants him taken out like JFK. You hear veiled threats and not so veiled threats everyday against him regularly from the media, Hollywood, leftist billionaires etc.

Trump will need to play his trump cards very soon. These cards have an expiration date on them. He needs to release and declassify all documents that hurt the deep state. If that doesn’t work, he will need to start military tribunals and executing traitors.

Trump warned China not to interfere with the elections. There is reason to believe that the Chicoms were money behind the CA US House races. This is treason for anyone involved. It is also an act of war if the Chicoms actually did this. Trade talks with China are proceeding slowly and an outright trade war is possible. The South China Sea is always a flash point. So, as more trade with the U.S. goes to Vietnam, Phillipines, and East Indies nations, this corridor will become even busier and a stinging reminder of the trade that is passing them by.

A serious Cold War and trade war with China could give Trump the chance to round up many leftists in the media, Silicon valley, Hollywood, Calexit movement.

True, we would have martial law in areas, but at some point we have to stop the deep state leftists and globalists in order to preserve national sovergnity. A socialist/communist US would soon lead to a Venezulan disaster with a bloody civil war. .
