It seems to me that we are facing an election where we are about to decide whether this country is about the individual or the collective. This isn't a case of Republicans vs Democrats as they would like us to believe. No, the Republican Party stopped being independent from the Democrat party some time during the first Bush administration. I think it was probably around the time GHW went back on his "no new taxes" pledge.
Since that time it seems as though the two name parties have been working in concert to keep their personal gravy train rolling along on its biscuit wheels. This train is paid for by the American tax payers, but for some reason they seem to hold allegiance to lobbyists instead of constituents. The lobbyists who help them spend millions of dollars to get and hold jobs that pay less than $200,000 per year.
Ya just need to ask yourself, why?
There is no logical reason why someone would knowingly spend more money to get a job than the job is worth. Unless they were getting something on the back end. And this is where the lobbyists come in. They are lining these folks' pockets and feathering their nests. All so the politicians will be beholden to them when legislation comes up concerning their little slice of the world.
So what does this have to do with this election and why is it different you might ask.
Well in my opinion, this election is different because Trump is holding out the possibility of changing the physics of Washington DC.
I say this because he is not beholding to any large benefactors, like Clinton is to Soros and Hollywood to name just a couple.
If you look at this election from that perspective, you can see why Paul Ryan and the others featured in Hillary's ad who say how they are against Trump, hold that position. He appears to be the bull in the China shop that is their own little honey pot.
While there is clearly nothing Christ like about Donald, he IS threatening to go into their temple and overturn the money changers' carts and run them out. I believe this is why the establishment politicians are so vehemently against him.
The odd part is, they could have easily seen this day coming and avoided it if they had only done what they told their constituents they were going to do. The Republicans have been given the majority in House for the past 6 years and the Senate for the past 4 years and they have continued to be complicit with the Democrats in working against the freedoms of individual American citizens and against the betterment of America as a whole.
They have done nothing to stop the flow of illegals across our southern boarder, or the expansion of the socialistic health care system that the Democrats put in place. (A system that was designed to fail in order to get people to see the implementation of a single payer system as a solution to the problem they created.) They have pushed group identity politics over the rights of the individual and they have actively supported the decline of American business through regressive tax policies. This is all in addition to their presiding over America's feckless policies relating to Islamic terrorism.
It is for these reasons I see Trump as the only choice for someone who believes in American traditional values. He represents quite possibly our last chance to return to our traditional roots. Ones where anyone can improve their station in life through their own grit and effort and not be hindered by the government, but rather helped by it.
Or.....we can vote for the most corrupt politician since Secretary of the Interior Albert Fall and the Teapot Dome scandal in 1922-23, (For those of you who may have not received a proper US Civics education, I suggest you look this up.) Hillary "What Difference Does It Make Now Anyway" Rodham Clinton.
Or so it would seem to an old farm boy.
