The bottom line may well be for many that Donald Trump lacks the common sense to be President. He had his best debate performance last night (so did Clinton), but the headlines this morning are all about the softball question he was asked and missed.
You don't go saying in advance that you may not respect the results of the election. Pence and Ivanka Trump weren't that stupid - each said, sure, the results of the election will be respected. That's the most sacred thing about this nation - our two centuries-plus tradition of the peaceful transfer of power. We accept the results of the peoples' plebicite and assume the mantle of loyal opposition while biding our time until the next election. That's America, in all its fundamental decency and fairness.
Trump's a bonehead, playing to his fever-swamp base while relieving himself on the people, rejecting our judgment, and disrespecting our Constitutional republic and its traditions.
All the more reason for CONSERVATIVES to reject this un-American, dangerous clown. As bad as four years of Hillary Clinton will be, we will survive with the fabric of our nation intact. Trump's the far greater danger, because he lacks a basic respect for Reagan's shining city.
I strongly disagree. Our country will not survive 4 years of Clinton. Her comments last night confirmed my fears of a Hillary presidency. When the question during the debate was asked of the candidates as to how they would replace justices and how they viewed the Constitution, Hillary's answer was extremely troubling. She stated that she would place justices to the SCOTUS that would rule according to the
'will of the people'. That is NOT the function of the Supreme Court. The function of the Supreme Court is NOT to make or rewrite laws, but to interpret the law according to the Constitution. It is up to the courts to determine whether the law violates or adheres to the Constitution. There are a many things lacking about Trump. Most I think would agree with that statement. However, the issue really boils down to will our Republic survive four years under Clinton? The landmass of the USA will more than likely remain intact (barring a nuclear strike) but the demographics will change dramatically, the SCOTUS will change dramatically and our rights under the Constitution will change dramatically. Our Republic as we now know it will forever be changed under Clinton.
Secondly, her dream is for open borders for the entire western hemisphere! Will our country survive the massive influx of Muslim immigrants or will Sharia law prevail? Will our country survive the economic impact of mass migration, open borders and amnesty? Certainly, it would be foolish to think that this mass immigration would not have an extreme negative impact on our country. Europe is a prime example. Since they have allowed Muslim refugees into their country, murders, beatings, rapes and other crimes against their citizenry have escalated dramatically.
Third, her part in arming Syrian rebels and the rise of ISIS should not be blatantly disregarded and ignored. IF you think that allowing immigrants from areas of known terrorists into this country will not invite ISIS into this country, you are mistaken. It is absolute lunacy and puts a target on every American's back.
No. We will not survive 4 years of Clinton.
