[@GeorgiaBoy1961]

@Dalko26- I was once a teacher of martial arts, and had a lot of teenaged students, some of whom asked me about careers in the military. Back in the old days, I used to recommend it, but not anymore since Obama, Biden et al. gained power. I tell them if they want to help their country and themselves to learn a trade, get married, and start a family. War has always been a racket, but there was one important difference back eighty years ago: The ruling class sent their sons into uniform too, and into combat in some cases. Franklin Roosevelt had three sons in the military during WW2, and they all saw action and went in harm's way. When's the last time anyone in today's Washington D.C. did that? They and theirs don't intend to get their hands dirty, let alone bloody, fighting all of those wars they start. They regard your sons and perhaps daughters, too, as cannon fodder to be spent furthering their career ambitions, wealth and status. General S.D. Butler's book from the 1930s is still in print and still as powerful as ever, "War is a Racket" - it is worth the time to read and eye-opening to say the least. Butler retired in 1931 as the highest-ranking Marine in China after a distinguished career which saw him earn not one but two Medals of Honor. He'd hoped to become Commandant of the Corps, but was not chosen. During the last decade of his life, he became something of a pacifist and wrote the book.

I lost all respect for George Will, Bill Crystal and their ilk when they became never Trump. I was so frustrated with the GOP before Trump. I left the democrats when I got out of college in the 90's and realized they were not for people trying to make their way in the world and who were willing to work hard. They wanted to punish me. So I left them. I was in the GOP, because there was no other real alternative. I got so angry with them when they failed to live up to their promises. I supported W Bush on his foreign policy, thinking he was smart enough to get it done and fixed quickly, especially after 9-11. But it all just kept dragging on. Then Obama pushed through his healthcare plans which I knew were not going to improve things, and the GOP let them do it. McCain even helped! So I was not enthusiastic about the GOP for years. Then Trump came along. I didn't like him at first. I was not a viewer of his show, not liking reality TV. But I got a couple of his books and liked what I read. Then, when he showed what he would do in the primary debates, I was all in for him. I didn't think he would win. But when he did, I was glad. And I was ecstatic when he started actually following through on his campaign promises! A Republican that actually delivered, and was rolling back the democrats' socialist policies! So when these "conservative" pundits came out as Never Trump ,despite Trump's conservative policies, I knew their true colors. They aren't for the American people.

Hillary refers to anyone supporting Trump as “ deplorable “ . When they tried busing illegal immigration members to Martha’s Vineyard the community raised such an uproar that they then had to bus them to sanctuary city New York to join the government sponsored direct flight recipients in hotels accommodations there. They seemed to be of the not in my back yard mindset.

Thank you John Anderson and Victor Davis Hanson for explaining what American politics has become without the obvious bias of the Washington Beltway 'experts' and pundits. In this day and age, when an 'expert' associates Trump to fascism, you can bet they are more concerned with their pay and their influence than they are with actually informing the public.

Jordan Peterson described Trump as being viewed by the elites as "déclassé," and this is accurate: Trump's appeal is not to the interests of the elites; his appeal is to the concerns of the common man. This, and the fact that as a complete political outsider, he managed to beat the political class at its own game, is why he has earned the contempt and implacable hatred of the elites--of both parties.

[@GeorgiaBoy1961]

Trump is a member of the economic elite - he's a billionaire himself - but he is different than many of his fellow plutocrats in one very important way: He knows that the people are the foundation of the wealth and prosperity of this country, ordinary people and not the kind of sliver spoon types who so infest the American aristocracy. He knows that if the America of the common man falls, they and it take everything and everyone else with them. And he's absolutely right. Thank goodness he has some strong and capable allies this time around.... because he's gonna need them. This fight isn't over, in fact it is just getting started. And the people who voted for him had better not roll over and go back to sleep again like last time; all hands are needed on deck for this one....

[@lawrenceralph7481]

Trump is a very difficult man. He alienates many. But he is a means to an end. His preferred policies are clear, but the degree of sucess depends on the makeup Congress, policy details and the basic persuasion of the proposed change. His policies began substantial changes beginning in 2016. In 2020, most continued, unchanged. Trump 2024

[@GeorgiaBoy1961]

Trump is "difficult"as you term it, but the American people have tried, time and time again, being polite with the Washington insiders and the ruling class working against the interests of the people and it didn't work. Time to bring in a bull in the china shop. If the swamp creatures don't like it, they have no one to blame but themselves. The people will be heard - period!

[@heatherknopp3723]

I'm a staunch Constitutional Conservative who came out strongly "never-Trump" in 2016 for 2 reasons: 1) I didn't believe he knew anything important about our Constitution (my #1 litmus test), and 2) he was crass, mean, and had diarrhea out the mouth. I couldn't stand to listen to his rambling, self-aggrandizing, low-brow blather. I was shocked when he won in 2016 and very glad he beat Hillary, but I held on to my skepticism and watched what he did. After 4 years, I was pleasantly surprised with his accomplishments. So I grudgingly voted for him in 2020, and that election and its aftermath proved to me how horrible the Left was and how, despite my preferences, Trump was the man for the job. His presence is like pouring water on the wicked witch - the left just screams and howls at everything he does. So I wholeheartedly support him this time, and I've seen him improve in how he speaks, how he presents himself, who he's choosing to associate with, etc. And I feel the Constitution is in FAR better hands with Trump, than the current alternatives (obviously).
