How about that? The election is over and we're still upright and breathing. The sun rose and things are moving along just as they did yesterday.
From where I sit, and where I think a lot of my fellow countrymen sit, there is a profound sense of relief. Relief and a looking-forward feeling that
we're not about to fall off the edge into a downward spiral of more
regulation, higher taxes and greater government control over our lives. It IS hopeful in America because, after months and months of struggle, door knocking, phone calls, hard work and hoping, we have a man with a positive, hopeful, uplifting message for America.
Donald Trump has said repeatedly, in front of hundreds of thousands of witnesses, that he will be OUR president. That he will work for US. That he loves America. That he will do all he can to protect our country and our best interests on the world stage.
I look forward to that. I look forward to looking up instead of down. I look forward to having a chance for a better quality of life, a thriving economy with higher employment. This is, truly, a new day and it is full of hope and the prospect of change we were promised more than eight years ago.
No matter what the BLS (Bureau of Labor Statistics) says, there are tens of millions of people who are and who have been sitting on the sidelines, sometimes for years, who haven't been able to find work. They are the truly disenfranchised, the hopeless. Now, because of the programs and ideas Donald Trump has publicized, they can hope again. They, too, can look forward to getting back to work, to digging in and feeling that sense of well-being that comes from contributing to the greater good through the effort of their own labor.
It won't happen immediately, but you can already see the sense of relief, of looking-forward in the stock market.
Companies that engage in construction and infrastructure, the equipment manufacturers, the material suppliers, are seeing a bounce in their stock prices. There is anticipation that those will be needed - and those companies will again be offering employment opportunities. In a matter of months, I think a lot of the un-employed, the given-up, the under employed will begin to see the budding of a new economic boom.
The coal industry, the broader energy industry, the lifeblood of our country will start to resurge. Jobs will open - the high paying jobs that have been promised for years and years - will start to open up and that will benefit the workers, their families and their communities. People will have money in their pocket, not because of government largesse or theft from others in the form of taxes, but because of their own labor. For the honest, the willing, there is no greater sense of satisfaction than going to work, working hard and, when the day is done looking back and saying, "I did a lot today" or "I had a good day."
It has been a long time, too long, since America has had an opportunity like this. I am glad we finally do. I am glad the sun rose over America this morning and there is change in the air.
And, in the spirit of the day, the hope and the expectation, I'll leave it there.
Best~

The Pinky & The Brain Society for World Domination, Part II - Updated
Following is the repost of a blog I put up last December.
It lays out my concern that the United Nations is nothing more than the nascent government for the New World Order / Globalist Society being forced upon us by our politicians.
America must do as the UK did from the EU - one of the five region/states promoted by the Globalists. We must "Brexit" from the UN and from NAFTA if we want to keep our sovereignty. By doing that, by shedding the shackles imposed upon us over the past thirty-five years, we will become truly free again, and will be positioned to provide a guiding light for the rest of the industrialized world.
If Hillary Clinton becomes President, our nation will cease to be. Obama has already handed over internet freedom to the United Nations. Clinton will have the Supreme Court and will strip our Constitution from us. The Second Amendment will be the first to fall - our insurance policy against governmental tyranny. Next will be the First Amendment, then the others, one-by-one, until we are laid bare.
There is no reason to doubt that the UN will begin exercising internet censorship if Hillary is elected. It fits with the UN 2030 Agenda - which lays out, in kindly terms, their plan for subverting free peoples and free nations to a One World Government.
The other day I posted and ranted about the UN's Agenda 2030 - a document that smacks of a manifesto about how they're going to take over the world. Reading that and thinking about it, it seems clear to me that the United Nations is intent on becoming the One World Government, Constitutions and national sovereignty be damned.
According to their Agenda, immigration is necessary and nations should cooperate and even encourage it.
Nation states should not do anything independently. If they want to enter into a trade agreement or do something that will benefit the citizens of their country financially or economically, that nation state is required, under the terms of this agreement, to get it approved by the Pinky & The Brain Society for World Domination (hereinafter called "the UN").
Along with the manifesto there were a smattering of references to other documents. Reading them it's not as overtly concerning as I expected. Most deal with the lofty goals of bringing undeveloped countries forward. African nations, land-locked nations (like Lichtenstein, one of the wealthiest countries in the world, no doubt), and other "deserving" countries. It sounds as if it's all about helping them to become self-sustaining and peaceful. And as I said the other day, those are lofty, admirable and worthy goals. They're not realistic goals given what's going on around the world these days, but they are worthy.
Can we say Boko Haram and mass murder? How about Daesh or ISIS or ISIL or IS or whatever the hell the name du jour is for those vermin who are killing and raping with abandon. Al Qaeda or Taliban or any of the many offshoots are in there, too. Given the violence running rampant through much of the world, the worldwide peace called for in Agenda 2030 looks to be very pie in the sky right now.
Despite the worthiness of its ideals, I do hope, for the the benefit of citizens everywhere, that the UN doesn't set itself up as The One World Government. Having people govern themselves locally is much better for the individual than people living under one-size fits all totalitarianism or tyranny, which is what I fear the UN's vision for the world would quickly become.
However, I do hope they manage to bring peace and prosperity to all. I'm still not sure how they're going to do it given the (I stand corrected because I said six the other day) more than seven billion people wandering around this planet and the limited resources of clean water and food. Good on them if they can, though.
Well, I said I would go back and read through some of those documents. Truth is, I skimmed. I skimmed several carefully, an in-depth skim rather than a skim-skim, and I gleaned some interesting information. Nothing about widespread eugenics or life productivity charts that show where medical resources should be applied (which was a cause of some widespread conspiracy theories back in 2008-2009).
One of the documents I looked at is called the Addis Ababa Action Agenda. Googling it brought me a selection of sites. I chose this UN page which is basically lots and lots of happy-talk about what the plan is:
On the weekend of November 16th, the G20 leaders whisked into Brisbane, posed for their photo ops, approved some proposals, made a show of roundly disapproving of Russian President Vladimir Putin, and whisked out again. It was all so fast, they may not have known what they were endorsing when they rubber-stamped the Financial Stability Board's "Adequacy of Loss-Absorbing Capacity of Global Systemically Important Banks in Resolution," which completely changes the rules of banking.
Russell Napier, writing in ZeroHedge, called it "the day money died." In any case, it may have been the day deposits died as money. Unlike coins and paper bills, which cannot be written down or given a "haircut," says Napier, deposits are now "just part of commercial banks' capital structure." That means they can be "bailed in" or confiscated to save the megabanks from derivative bets gone wrong.

Cutting through the wilderness of
verbiage (you think they use so many convoluted words and phrases so people will give up and go do
something else?), I found not much else but one significant point that comes up again and again.
Hold onto your wallet. The
tax collector is coming to get you, and it’s going to hurt:
Domestic resource mobilization is central to
the agenda. In the outcome
document, countries agreed to an array
of measures aimed at widening the revenue base, improving tax collection, and
combatting tax evasion and illicit financial flows. Countries also
reaffirmed their commitment to official development assistance, particularly
for the least developed countries…
Doncha love the convoluted phrasing?
It makes sound so benign. “Domestic resource mobilization…” * Sighs and bats eyelids at the melodious sound of it *
Oh, and that typo is theirs, not mine (mine is a direct quote, including the wart of 'combatting').
Oh, and that typo is theirs, not mine (mine is a direct quote, including the wart of 'combatting').
Now, back to the program here:
Excuse me? Just what the hell is that supposed to mean? "Domestic resource mobilization..."
This is deliberate, you know. Make it hard to read, harder to comprehend and people will give up. You can bet when these guys and gals were sitting around that table they weren’t saying (in portentous tones), “You know, domestic resource mobilization has got to be central to this agenda.”
No, it was probably more along the lines of, "You know, we are going to have to tax the hell out of people to pay for all of this. That has got to be central to this agenda."

No, it was probably more along the lines of, "You know, we are going to have to tax the hell out of people to pay for all of this. That has got to be central to this agenda."
Bottom line is that they have deliberately made it harder to
read than it needs to be, and if you’ve reached this far it’s possible your
brain is on the verge of exploding. But I’m persistent and dogged so I made it
this far. Then read farther. Basically, they are going to create new taxes, fees, liens, assessments and levies,
reduce loopholes, and do everything possible to separate you from as much of your hard
earned money as possible so it can be given away to other countries.
The next paragraph takes it a step
farther:
The outcome document also
underscores the importance of aligning private investment with
sustainable development,
In
other words, under this grand scheme it seems that your “private”
investments wouldn't be
private anymore. You invest your money in the stock market or some other
savings vehicle and it’s not necessarily yours. Maybe it'll be like some
of the programs instituted in Greece and Cypress in the past couple of
years. You know, those policies where if you have anything more than "x"
amount of money in the bank, the government can just swoop down and
take it. They were called 'bail-ins'.
In
case you don't believe this actually happened (it did), here's an
except is from the Huffington Post (there are many other links but out
of sensitivity for those who might get hives from any of the other more
right-wing publications like Forbes or Investor's Business Daily or the
Wall Street Journal, I chose this one):
On the weekend of November 16th, the G20 leaders whisked into Brisbane, posed for their photo ops, approved some proposals, made a show of roundly disapproving of Russian President Vladimir Putin, and whisked out again. It was all so fast, they may not have known what they were endorsing when they rubber-stamped the Financial Stability Board's "Adequacy of Loss-Absorbing Capacity of Global Systemically Important Banks in Resolution," which completely changes the rules of banking.
Russell Napier, writing in ZeroHedge, called it "the day money died." In any case, it may have been the day deposits died as money.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/ellen-brown/new-g20-bailin-rules-now-_b_6244394.html
And, that G20 document they signed affected all banks, everywhere.
Including here in the US where we supposedly have our own national
banking regulations and restrictions. Yeah, well there went those with
nary a ripple.
So, back to the UN Agenda 2030 and Addis Ababa Action Thingie. It goes farther. It pretty much says
that on top of your local tax collector and the national tax collector, we
might end up with a UN tax collector, too. Although they won’t call it that.
They’ll figure out new ways and means and impose taxes, fees, levies,
assessments or anything else they can think of, take the money locally or
domestically, and then funnel it into the UN for redistribution. Don’t believe
me? Well, they say it right here:
Taxation—The
Agenda calls for strengthening support for the work of the UN Committee of Experts on International
Cooperation in Tax Matters to improve its effectiveness and operational
capacity,
Wunnerful. So, on top of the
twenty-some percent I pay in income tax, and the ten percent sales tax I
regularly shell out on things other than foodstuffs, and the forty percent I
pay per gallon on the gas I need to get to my job to earn the money to pay my
taxes, I get to look forward to another hand being thrust in my direction.
Well, they gotta pay for this somehow.
I kept reading but didn’t find
anything else that’s new. Just the high-falutin’ goals to which they aspire and
expect us to pay for.
I’m
still scratching my head over how they’re going to
bring everyone on this planet up to the same plane of existence. Don't
misunderstand me, please. It’s a worthy
goal and I hope they can accomplish it. I just fear that by taking and
taking and taking from those who have and giving and giving and giving
to those who don't, they'll end up dragging the rest of us down to the
level of these undeveloped countries.
Since
we have no one with a spine in Washington, and Obie-One is routinely
circumventing the protections afforded by the Constitution by issuing
decree after decree from the Oval Office, I suspect we're going to be
stuck with this whether we like it or not. So much for a Representative
Democracy.
Well. It's another case of something about which I, as an individual can do nothing so I'm not going to worry about it. I'll live my life, put one foot in front of the other for as long as I can, and keep on keepin' on. I hope you'll do the same but I do hope, if you figure out a solution to The Pinky & The Brain Society for World Domination you'll clue the rest of us in so we can join you.

What is Wrong with America?
I am so angry, so frustrated and so disgusted by the descent of this country into a nation where there are two sets of rules - one for the rich and powerful, and a completely different set for the people who work hard, pay their taxes and play by the rules. WE, what little is left of the middle class, by our labor and effort, carry the rich and powerful on our backs.
For all those Elitists in Hollywood who look down their noses at people like me, or people who kind of think like me, we support you by going to see your movies. We support you by buying your music and watching your shows. Where do you get off looking down at us and sneering? Without us, without our money, you'd be broke and living on the streets. You would be homeless like so many of the men and women who have fought for those freedoms that allow you to spew hatred and crap like pus from a suppurating wound.
The same for the media and the Masters of the Internet - Google and Microsoft. If we could break our addiction to the drug you provide - the internet - you'd go broke in a week. But we can't. You own us and you know it and you sneer and smear and laugh.
Fine. Sometimes a dance with the devil is unavoidable, so we dance.
But! This corruption, the lies that are told and the evil that pervades our electoral process is so far removed from, so diametrically opposed to the intent of our Bill of Rights and Constitution - that I could almost (not quite, but almost) commit murder.
Saying it "infuriates" me doesn't even come close to how I really feel.
All across the news there are stories, Ed Snowden, Kristian Saucier, David Petraeus, John Deutch, Sandy Berger, Peter Van Buren and the list goes on and on and on, of people who have done nothing compared to what Hilliary has done. These people have been hammered, their lives ruined, imprisoned or not, their reputations have been trashed - and Hilliary gets a pass.
The latest I saw last night is that one of her attorneys "gave" our national secrets to China by using a compromised laptop. Files that were on her server have been found on that laptop, which has been proved to have been hacked by China. Files have been found on a server in Romania - and she gets a pass.
For months we kept hearing that James Comey "is a stand-up guy". Bull crap. He's as corrupt, as morally and ethically bankrupt, as soulless as Loretta Lynch and all the rest of the Washington insiders.
This leads me to ask: What the HELL is wrong with the people in this country?
Is there no one with a shred of honor, a speck of decency or moral fiber left? Why is this woman walking the street? Because she said, "I don't recall"? That's bull crap and we all know it.
There's a video that's been found, from 2010, where she's on tape telling her staff about cyber security. Now we all know that was a case of "do as I say, not as I do". But she doesn't recall.
If anyone else did any thing even remotely like what she's done, they'd be rotting in jail - and she's not.
Why are we, the citizens of this country, giving this woman a pass? Why are WE allowing her to get away with this? This is WRONG.
I am confident that if Donald Trump gets elected next month Hilliary will be toast next year - and about damned time as far as I'm concerned.
But what does all of this say about our country? What does it say about our morality and sense of right and wrong? More importantly, what message are we sending our kids? "Become powerful and you can do anything?" That's what it looks like from where I sit.
There is credible evidence that the Clintons have been involved in hurting people, perhaps even killing some. Just the Project Veritas videos prove that they will stop at nothing - even if it means children get pepper sprayed and people get beaten up and pelted with eggs. All that matters to Hilliary is getting elected - and the hell with everyone who gets in her way.
Why? On God's green Earth, why would anyone with a shred of decency or speck of a soul vote for someone like this?
Even if you think Donald Trump is a foul mouthed boor, mean and crass or anything else, that is NOTHING compared to what we know about Hilliary and her entourage. When has Donald Trump ever caused property damage, physical harm or threatened anyone? I've never heard that from the media - and we all know they would have used it, plastered the airwaves with it, but there's nothing.
This election IS the future of our country. I'm convinced of that because of the Supreme Court. We can handle a couple of more years of bad leadership and a limp Congress - but the Court is our future. It will guide us as we move forward, and our freedom is under direct threat because of how Hillary Clinton views our country.
That is why I pray that Donald Trump prevails. Even if his feet are made of clay, even if he cannot do everything he's promising to do, it will put a huge dent in the globalist plan to subvert what was, in the twentieth century, the greatest republic on the planet.

Time and Place... Why Not?
All of the media is gawping in shock this morning over the remarks Donald Trump made at last night's Alfred E. Smith dinner. Even my hubby was shocked, but I get it. I know exactly why The Donald did what he did, said what he said.
My mother taught me well that there are right times and right places. Swearing in church is a wrong time / wrong place. Kneeling for prayer in a pig sty, same. Last night might not have been the right time or place, but it was an opportunity too good to pass by.
Before going farther, my position on the people who call themselves journalists is that they are, almost all of them, blatant bald-faced liars. Any credibility they might have had is gone - 100% - because of their collusion with the most corrupt, evil political campaign I have ever seen. Granted, that's only about 50 years' worth, but I remember reading about the Kennedy / Nixon mix-up in my teens, and the questions that still swirl around Johnson's implication in the Kennedy assassination. Carter / Reagan, Reagan / Mondale, Bush / Dukakis, etc. NOTHING stinks compared to this one.
For the past year, and we have proof positive through Wikileaks, Hilliary's slavering, slobbering lackeys at ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, the New York Times, Washington Times, etc., have engaged in unrelenting character assassination.
They won't touch Hilliary. Oh, no. She owns them, they know it, and they fear her.
In fact, just the other day, CNN asked a pol a question about Donald Trump. When the man just mentioned Wikileaks, the satellite feed "mysteriously" cut out. If it wasn't so flagrant, so obvious, it might have been funny. But it's not.
For eighteen months these television outlets (they do not have any right to call themselves "news media" and they certainly have NO RIGHT to call themselves "journalists" since they are far less than intellectually honest) have gone after Trump in concerted, deliberate way.
They have not pointed out in good natured humor the little things, the human failings and foibles we all have, as they have with Clinton (few and far between though they be). No, they have made things up entirely.
The "bimbo eruptions" (if I may borrow a derogatory phrase from the women's advocate Mrs. Clinton) for instance. Why, if those charges against Mr. Trump are legitimate, didn't those women come forward long ago, at the time it happened? Not even one or two surfaced over the years - why suddenly, a few weeks before the election?
After all, Trump didn't have the power, as Bill Clinton did, to affect the futures of those women in meaningful way. I can say with certainty, after watching him and listening to him for the past year, that Trump would not stoop to the kind of intimidation and the threats of physical harm many of Bill's accusers say came their way from Hilliary. He's just not like that. He'd talk about it. He'd call them names, say mean or nasty things, or sued the paper or outlet that released the stories, but that would be it.
No, without those false accusations, the heads of the television stations didn't have anything to make people hate Trump. They have performed character assassination against Trump and against Melania. Written lies and spoken have flooded the airwaves - proof nowhere to be found - and he's had no venue in which to strike back.
Until last night when he was handed a golden opportunity, and he took it.
Hilliary and her ankle licking, butt sniffing lapdogs of the press were all in the same room. None were in position to do anything about it, so what better time or place to lay it all out? To tell them that he knows, as does the rest of America, how corrupt, morally and ethically bankrupt these people have become. In a matter of a few words, he unburdened himself. He called out those hate-filled people and lanced the boil of resentment that has simmered in many Americans who have watched this circus, disgusted and offended.
And I, despite the inappropriateness of the time and place, applaud him - standing O, Mr. (future) President.
As for the "news" outlets? They have done their profession irreparable harm. Never again will I believe a single word they say - even if they say it's raining while outside my windows water is falling from the sky. Once a liar, always a liar and you can never be sure that a liar isn't lying when their lips are moving.

My mother taught me well that there are right times and right places. Swearing in church is a wrong time / wrong place. Kneeling for prayer in a pig sty, same. Last night might not have been the right time or place, but it was an opportunity too good to pass by.
Before going farther, my position on the people who call themselves journalists is that they are, almost all of them, blatant bald-faced liars. Any credibility they might have had is gone - 100% - because of their collusion with the most corrupt, evil political campaign I have ever seen. Granted, that's only about 50 years' worth, but I remember reading about the Kennedy / Nixon mix-up in my teens, and the questions that still swirl around Johnson's implication in the Kennedy assassination. Carter / Reagan, Reagan / Mondale, Bush / Dukakis, etc. NOTHING stinks compared to this one.
For the past year, and we have proof positive through Wikileaks, Hilliary's slavering, slobbering lackeys at ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, the New York Times, Washington Times, etc., have engaged in unrelenting character assassination.
They won't touch Hilliary. Oh, no. She owns them, they know it, and they fear her.
In fact, just the other day, CNN asked a pol a question about Donald Trump. When the man just mentioned Wikileaks, the satellite feed "mysteriously" cut out. If it wasn't so flagrant, so obvious, it might have been funny. But it's not.
For eighteen months these television outlets (they do not have any right to call themselves "news media" and they certainly have NO RIGHT to call themselves "journalists" since they are far less than intellectually honest) have gone after Trump in concerted, deliberate way.
They have not pointed out in good natured humor the little things, the human failings and foibles we all have, as they have with Clinton (few and far between though they be). No, they have made things up entirely.
The "bimbo eruptions" (if I may borrow a derogatory phrase from the women's advocate Mrs. Clinton) for instance. Why, if those charges against Mr. Trump are legitimate, didn't those women come forward long ago, at the time it happened? Not even one or two surfaced over the years - why suddenly, a few weeks before the election?
After all, Trump didn't have the power, as Bill Clinton did, to affect the futures of those women in meaningful way. I can say with certainty, after watching him and listening to him for the past year, that Trump would not stoop to the kind of intimidation and the threats of physical harm many of Bill's accusers say came their way from Hilliary. He's just not like that. He'd talk about it. He'd call them names, say mean or nasty things, or sued the paper or outlet that released the stories, but that would be it.
No, without those false accusations, the heads of the television stations didn't have anything to make people hate Trump. They have performed character assassination against Trump and against Melania.

Fellow #Deplorables, if we want to #MAGA - here's what else we have to do
If you are a "Deplorable" by Hillary Clinton's standards, our work is only half done.
Unless Donald Trump has all the help he needs to keep the promises he's made to us, he won't get there from here. He will not be able to affect the change we all are so desperate to see. So we have to do our part to help him get America back for us, for our families and for our children.
Look at the Congressional Approval polls. As of this morning, nearly 80% of Americans questioned about the job Congress is doing said "it's crap", or words to that effect.
Why?
Because WE the American People, keep putting back into office the same people to do the same thing - feather their nests at the expense of ours. We, the American people, have got to wake up and take responsibility for our nation back. Which means we have got to stop doing what we've been doing and expecting a different result.
I can't speak to other states, but the two Senators from California, Dianne Feinstein and Barbara Boxer were both first elected in 1992 and 1993, respectively. Given that they've been drinking the water and sucking the wind in Washington for nearly a quarter of a century, how in touch do you think they are with the people in their state?
I can answer that: they're not.
They are owned, lock, stock and barrel by the donors and special interests. They do NOT have the people's interests at heart or put them first. No. They owe those donors and special interests and do their bidding, not ours.
The same can be said of our State Representatives - most of them of been in office for multiple terms. Look at Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the House when Obama Care was causing such a ruckus. She deliberately ignored the will of the People, famously said, "You have to read the bill to find out what's in it", and got that bill passed - even though the majority of Americans said "NO!"
These people, and others like them around the country, have lost touch with the very people who put them into office the first time. These people have got to go if we hope to have one single little chance of putting things right again.
Yes - there are exceptions - a handful. Like Marsha Blackburn from Tennessee, Darryl Issa from California (of all places!), and Trey Gowdy.
We HAVE to fix this. WE, you and me and the rest of us Deplorables, have got to put into the House and the Senate people like Donald Trump, people who will support Trump in the policies he wants to put into place and the Justices he will nominate to the Supreme Court.
If we don't do this, if we do not throw out the vast majority of current incumbents in both the House and the Senate and elect people who are as desperate to get America back to the Constitution and back to what it should be, Trump will enter the Oval Office with both of his hands tied behind his back. He will not be able to get even half of what we want him to do, done.
So - don't just vote for Donald Trump. Do that, but also do your homework. Identify those people who are on the ballot in your state and district who hold the same ideals as the rest of us Deplorables. Vote for them, and encourage all of your friends and family to do the same.
Let us, the American People, take this country back from the Elites and the Donor Class - but lets do it 100%.

Open Letter to Jonah Goldberg & #NeverTrump Groupies
Dear Jonah,
I just took a look at your page on Twitter. That is one adorable dog! But you know the expression on your pup's face in that pic? That guilty look that says, "Oops! I really messed up - Dad's gonna be pissed."
That's what I want to talk to you about today: forgiveness.
It's the case of knowing we've screwed up, and knowing that someone important to us will get mad, but we hope they will make the effort to separate the act from the individual. Which is something that takes character - accepting that when someone does or says something foolish, separating the act from the person. Colleagues, friends, parents and lovers do it all the time. It's part of living.
When someone we know, care about, like or love does something "stupid" or unthinking we don't, as a general rule, throw them out like trash.
Instead, we try to help them learn not to do the same thing again because no one of us, not you, not me, not anyone else on this planet is perfect. When we screw up it's incumbent on one decent human being to another, to help us get better.
I get that you don't like Trump. I do, and I respect that. What I have trouble respecting though, is your "baby out with the bathwater" approach to this situation. We do not have another viable choice. One of these two people will be our next president for the next four years, and unless we're planning on leaving the planet, there's just no getting around the fact that we will live with whatever they put in place.
Now, you have principles you can't bring yourself to violate. Got it. Respect it. But! Given the realistic choices come November - crap sandwich on wheat v. crap sandwich on white - there ain't a lot of wiggle room.
Yes, you, yourself, have only one vote. But you influence, through your articles and television appearances, a lot of people who might be on the fence. If you remain standing in your corner, face to the wall and fingers in your ears, stamping your feet because you just don't want to see reality, Hillary Clinton could well become our next president.
Have you never heard of the fine art of compromise? Do you never compromise with your wife, your siblings or people with whom you work? Of course you do, and those are times when you put your self off to the side and accept something you might not necessarily like 100%.
Putting yourself, your self, your ego and principles aside, and looking at what that would mean for the United States of America, what do you suppose the future of this country will be if she wins?
Is that the kind of place you want your kids and your grandkids to live in?
No free speech because the Supreme Court will decide what speech is allowed and what falls in the purely subjective bucket of "hate-speech". We're already seeing this mindset spreading itself across college campuses. What do you suppose the speech-police will say to you and to Rush and to anyone else who doesn't fall into their narrow line of expression?
No Second Amendment because the left doesn't understand it and are frightened by it - yet it is the one true guarantee our country's Founders put in place to ensure we would not be subjected to tyranny.
No States Rights, or Protection from Illegal Search & Seizure? Do you really want the kind of America Hillary Clinton will create through her appointments to the Supreme Court?
Thinking Congress will stop her from doing that is delusional at best. When has Congress last been effective at doing anything that has benefited America and her citizens? 1998?
No, Jonah. I am afraid that your selfish adherence to self and stance on your principles could well doom this country.
Sometimes we have to weigh the alternatives and sometimes we have to put our self aside. We have to think bigger picture and swallow our pride.
I am confident that were many in the GOP who threw up their hands in horror at the idea of having Ronald Reagan as Governor of California. Yes, he cut his teeth on a smaller stage, but he was, arguably, the BEST president of the past 75-years. I proudly voted for him in 1980 and again in 1984 - and I am damned glad that I did.
In Trump, believe it or not, I see similar characteristics. I see that Trump, while full of bluff and bluster does get that he's not the smartest guy in the room. Just as Reagan did. I'm also pretty confident that he knows pretty well what he doesn't know, and he has surrounded himself with advisers who do. Just how much real foreign policy experience did Reagan have before taking on the Soviet Union?
Step back for a minute. Look over the past year and look at just how far Trump has come in his policies and positions since announcing his intent to run. Look at who he's surrounded himself with as advisors and surrogates.
These people aren't slouches, and the people he's listening to and learning from do, I believe, love this country just as you and I do, and, as I believe Donald Trump does. I am confident they will continue to put her interests ahead of their own - as you and the other #NeverTrump groupies should do.
Just get over yourselves. Look out at America. Look at what she has become in the past twenty-five years and ask yourself, can we really afford another generation of degeneration through the courts and Executive Orders?
Think about it - hard, long and generously, putting the American people ahead of your principles for five minutes, and then decide.
The Basket of Deplorables will welcome you and your friends with open arms.
Best,
DeplorablePhil

Could it possibly be...?
America is divided again on July 5th. Half of us are horrified by what the FBI did, and half of us are breathing a sigh of relief.
What if, though. What if this was a calculus by Comey and the FBI to...
1) Avoid an indictment and prevent Obama from pardoning her, leaving open the door for a future indictment.
2) Continues the speculation about what was in those emails and how damaging they might have been to our national security.
3) Make Trump look at least a bit more honorable when compared to a woman who has already proved to be unable to keep a secret. One of the digs against Trump is that he has a big mouth that runs away from him.
People don't like either of them with good reason. The primary difference is that Trump is a relative newcomer when compared to Hillary who's been an unpleasant wart in public view for more than thirty years.
After all, this is a woman who aided and abetted her husband's repeated abuse of women, calling the victims "bimbo eruptions". Yeah, that's presidential.
Back to Comey because she's disgusting and now she's been given a pass by someone widely thought to be a "stand-up" guy. That reputation is now under a gigantic question mark, but what if.
One thing that Comey didn't touch today is the Clinton Foundation. Could this be the tax evasion equivalent that brought Al Capone down?
Back then, in the twenties and thirties, the Feds had a whole lot of circumstantial evidence that Capone was involved in bootlegging and murder and extortion. Still, it wasn't until an accountant discovered a lapse in Capone's tax return that they were able to nail him and throw his sorry ass in jail for a good long time.
Maybe that's the design here. Pass on the Big One and focus on the apparent lesser evil that will be easier to prove.
I hope so. I really, truly hope so, because as a former government contractor, knowing the serious consequences of saying the wrong thing in the wrong way at the wrong time and place, today's lack of action is shocking. Hell - as a government contractor I wasn't supposed to be on Facebook or any other social media outlet in case I might be compromised. That was SOP at my employer and was a terminable offense.
No matter what else, this strips any pretense away from "justice". There is none. If you're Joe or Jo Sixpack, you're toast if you jaywalk. If you're a political hotshot, you can do anything you want and you'll be given a pass. That is the worst of it. Today has proved there is no "justice for all".
Oh well. This is another case where time will tell.
If Trump becomes President, I pray he will reach back and prosecute this woman to the fullest extent of the law. If she becomes President, this country is well and truly screwed. Law will have no meaning, national security classifications become a total joke, and non-disclosure agreements have no weight. Edward Snowden can come home and not face a single charge because of the precedent laid down today.
