| #10 That really was a good read. Kelly Scott Franklin of the Federalist. I don't agree but clever. The ship of state must be righted somehow. Far Far too many negatives with Hilly. I see her course far more reckless and obsessive than Trump. |

| #9 Dale, if the Germans, Brits and other assorted Euroweenies want to turn their countries over to Arabs without so much as a fight there's nothing I can do about it. If they want to forfeit their sovereignty to a socialist, one-world government I have no say in the matter. I just hope Americans wake up before it happens here. |

| #8 This election is about people finally becoming aware that the old republic died and that you need the leader of your own special interest group (one that has been consistently and unrelentingly demonized and scapegoated for decades). Resistance or surrender. The Left by exploiting special interests of smaller and smaller group giving them veto if not outright domination of a large plurality if not majority of the population has created this situation. Their shrill voice and street thuggery shows how intolerant they are of this new emergent special interest group. It's one thing to cobble together an alliance predicated upon hate of the country and the people, it's another when the object of their scorn awake and and resist. |

| #7 Darth, you are right about the crony capitalism problem, BUT, that problem has two sides. The inside is where the politicians live and the outside is where the "capitalists" live. Given the nature of the insiders is it really fair to blame the outsiders? This is like the argument for unilateral disarmament. Trump knows the outside, hopefully he will attack the real source of the problem, the inside. And if the outsiders continue to try and bribe the insiders? Well hopefully the rule of law will be reestablished. Imagine an economy where there wasn't enough money/power in government to make it worth your while to bribe the pols. |

| #5 My contacts in Germany think as the liberals do here. They have a major hate thing going to boycott Israeli products now. They would be quite happy if O stayed in power.One fellow in Germany associated Trump to Captain Ahab. I must add in England also Trump is disliked. You can imagine the Swiss perspective. |

| #4 I still don't trust him and still see him as the epitome of crony capitalism. That being said, if all he does is act like a huge wreaking ball through the entrenched bureaucracy in DC it will be well worth whatever else happens. |

| #3 His speech nailed how most of America feels and certainly how his followers feel. As far as I'm concerned it could be Joe the Plumber giving this speech and I would vote for him. It was interesting to hear those that hate Trump comment on the speech. Their minds have been made up, closed to the point of bias, and unwilling to even consider what he says. He will win, he will reel in the Bernie supporters and crush Hillary. |

| #2 The people know who runs the country. They are not quite sure what to do about it. |

| #1 A truer word was bever spoken. its not about democrat v republican this time, and the clintons and trump were once friends! This is not about red or blue. Its about the system's desperate need for a true outsider, a bright spark who can get things done, to clean out the crap and put a few corrupt people in the Big House where they belong. The spy bureaucracy wont like it as they have been "wagging the dog" too long, so expect a shedload of lying misinformation along the way. Democracy needs the informed consent of the people. And the people need someone who will actually represent THEM Go Trump... MAGA because the rest of the world needs you to put america first for a change and make the country strong again |
