After Trump, Who’s The Next US President? by AjalaJ(m): 5:27pm On Jun 27, 2018 |
Abraham Lincoln, if he were alive and brought up to speed. However, here and now we get to choose between Trump and Clinton. There are no other choices, and if you are able to vote, whatever you do—vote, don’t vote, vote for a splinter party candidates, or write in someone—will help either Trump or Clinton win, given your own situation. This time around we’re in an unusual situation because the best candidate of the two for liberals is Clinton, but the best candidate for conservatives is also Clinton, who’s also the best candidate for moderates. This is because the Republican candidate lacks both the preparation and the temperament required of a President. Whatever you think of Clinton, you know she can do the job. There probably has never been a candidate for the American presidency who understands exactly what the job entails as well as she does. For moderates it’s a no-brainer, because she’s a moderate. For liberals Trump is an abomination—a swindler and con artist and thin-skinned bully who’d be the bull in the china shop, so for them it should also be a no-brainer. For small-c conservatives it’s painful. Their rational choice among this year’s Republican candidates would probably have been Jon Kasich, but he’s not available. And for them I’d say Clinton is a more conservative choice than Trump. I mean, face it—she’d be presiding while the House remains firmly in Republican control, so not one of her policies will be implemented if it needs legislation or new funding. But at the same time she’d prevent the runaway spending that happened the last time a Republican President had a Republican Congress and Supreme Court. In terms of social policy, remember that we’re electing a President, not a monarch. No President can pass laws single-handedly. Or appoint judges. Even if the Senate goes Democratic, it won’t have a filibuster-proof Democratic majority, so Supreme Court nominations wouldn’t fly unless they as moderate as someone like Judge Garland, who even Chief Justice Roberts approves of, and he’s certainly a conservative. And from a small-c conservative viewpoint, you know that Clinton wouldn’t do anything startling. She’s a steady-as-she-goes type of politician. Whereas Trump seems capable of anything, as his mercurial moods strike him. It’s not surprising that he admires Putin, who’s a similar personality type. I’ve never seen so many conservatives—from grassroots up into Washington DC Republicans—who are as opposed to the Republican nominee as they are to Trump, and it’s centered on nonpartisan things. His temperament. His grasp of the job. The likelihood that he would damage the Republican brand severely if he won. I have not in my lifetime—and I’m old—seen a presidential candidate of either party who seemed so unsuited to the job, and whose background outside politics gave so little “outside” source of confidence in him either. Clinton is imperfect but she’s in the ballpark. Trump isn’t in the ballpark. That’s what it boils down to.

In U.S. politics a " moderate" is in fact a slowpoke, a sick liberal who wouldn' t mind if the U.S. flag were replaced everywhere by the evil and arrogant homosexual rainbow flag. People like Romney ( former governor of Massachusetts who ended up running for a senate seat in Utah this year ) don' t care if same sex marriage becomes the norm as long as their own selfish power greed is fulfilled. Some say Trump is a dictator. Well, how did he come to power ? He came in at a time when Christians were targeted and dragged to court for refusing to bake cakes for homosexual wedding. He came in when saying. the words " radical Muslims" was about to become a federal crime although at the very same time Muslims were kidnapping schoolgirls in Nigeria, beheading , burning alive or gunning down people Iraq, Syria, Libya, Burkina Faso, Chad, Cameroon, Cote d' Ivoire, France, UK, Belgium, Germany, Libya etc. At that time Russia was the only military power battling radical Islam. 2 Likes 1 Share |

From conservative groups who are outraged. From gay rights groups who are pleased. And from state lawmakers on both sides who just cannot seem to stop talking about it. The bank unfurled the flag on June 1, at the request of a group of gay and lesbian employees in honor of gay pride month. One day later, Bob Marshall, a Republican in the House of Delegates and an outspoken opponent on gay rights issues, was moved to write a letter to the bank’s president, saying that the flag was inappropriate for a quasi-governmental entity. Gay and lesbian “behavior,” he wrote, “undermines the American economy, shortens lives, adds significantly to illness, increases health costs, promotes venereal diseases,” among other things. 1 Like 1 Share |

panafrican:Obviously, you are writing from emotion. I grew up knowing nothing can topple American democracy. Do you know what it entails to change the constitution in America?. Don't sweat yourself dry, homosexuals will never take over in America. Tell me any democracy in the world that was taken over by less than 5% of the people.

Abbeybailey: Abbeybailey AKA Lucasbalo, 1. How did the 5% succeed in having the LGBT flag unfold in the air next to the US flag at federal building such as the federal reserve ? 2. How did the 5% succeed in allowing gays into the military ? 3. How did the 5 % succeed in making the supreme court overrule state referendums that prohibited or limited same sex marriage? 4. How did the 5% succeed in terrorizing employers about discrimination against gays and lesbians? 5. How did the 5% succeed in taking people to court on the ground those people refused to bake a cake for gay marriage? 6. How did the 5% succeed in making some school board impose unisex bathrooms in schools 7. How did the 5% succeed in making a U.S. president threaten to withhold federal funds from school districts that refuse to allow unisex bathrooms in K-12 schools? You don't understand the Bill of Rights can be interpreted by any supreme court judge in a manner that paves the way to all types of mess. You don't need to amend the constitution to reach a goal in a constitutional republic. Keep in mind America is not a Democracy but a constitutional republic . Had America been a "Democracy " there wouldn't be an electoral college. As a matter of fact, the Founding Fathers were so afraid of Democracy they put into place an electoral college and a powerful supreme court. Last but not least: Georges W. Bush was chosen by the supreme court against Al Gore, not elected by the people. If you need other sources here they are some short videos 1.

The bottom line is that for an American constitution to change, you need two third of the States, Two third of the House of Representatives and also Two third of the Senate plus the signature of the president. Find something else to worry about. No homosexual flags will be intertwined with American flag. Period. 1 Like |

My main grouse with Trump is his open racism against Blacks and Brown people. Like I said, there's a reason over 95% percent of African Americans voted against him.
