Yes, he's an egotistical man with a somewhat simplistic view of things (ergo, his appeal to so many), but I think he really does love this country. (I haven't decided who to vote for, but it will be either Trump or Cruz.) <br />What most of us are missing is the bigger picture. We should look at events and think why, not individuals. Politics is a filthy sleazy business, and the rhetoric is for the most part designed to redirect peoples attention away from the truth.<br />A good example is the protesting happening this weekend. Why are we not seeing similar protests at a Cruz or Rubio event? Why is the GOPe blaming Trump for the unrest? Surely we should be supporting the candidate that elicits the most emotional violent response from the likes of Soros, Ayers and Berniedrones?<br />Whatever the truth ends up being, I hope we as a country can navigate this period of it's life and come out the other end intact.<br />As for all the political posturing going on by good conservatives all over, it might be a good idea to step off the podium for a bit.

BLM idiots are going to riot-CPD is going to crack heads-it'll be the modern version of Chicago in 1968.GamegetterIIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11963151027331481180noreply@blogger.com
