Entering 2018 with Gratitude to God and Donald Trump

I remember that painful election night in 2012. Against reason, Americans chose to give Obama four more years in the White House.

As a Christian, all I knew to do was trust God. Little did I know that Obama's re-election was setting the stage for long-shot dark-horse presidential candidate Donald J. Trump.

Over eight years, the shine wore off electing the first black president. Americans knew that Obama was driving our country in the wrong direction. We subconsciously felt the tyranny of political correctness. Obama led leftists' war on Christianity. Obama's agenda was founded upon punishing America first. Thus, Americans were ready for real change. Enough with empty promises from fancy-talkin' professional politicians.

When businessman extraordinaire, regular-guy candidate Trump said he wanted to "make America great again," We, the People immediately connected with Trump's clear and simple decree.

Political elites thought Trump running for president was hilarious. It amazes me that political so-called experts are still puzzled as to why Trump won the White House. Establishment elites are finally backing away from the narrative that Trump stole the election via collusion with Russia or other dirty tricks.

This tells me that these people (establishment elites) in their Washington, D.C. towers of power are sheltered from everyday Americans. It is only common sense that a majority of Americans would desire a leader who loves his homeland and wants to make it the best it can be. Only liberalism-indoctrinated anti-American zealots have a problem with Trump's positive agenda for America.  

Purposely unreported by fake news media, Trump has used his will and true grit to amass a substantial list of wins for America in his first year. Trump has been rolling back Obama's messes in spite of NeverTrumps and Congress.

Did the FBI really fall for the Steele dossier's 'dezinformatsiya'?
I remember presidential candidate Ted Cruz promising to move the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem, recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. To the shock and horror of haters of Israel in America and around the world, Trump picked up Cruz's baton, deciding to move the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem. God said He will bless those who bless Israel and curse those who curse Israel (Genesis 12:3). Thank you, President Trump.

Remarkably, Trump is fulfilling his campaign promises, despite fake news media dominating the airwaves with distortions, negative spin, and actual lies about everything Trump says and does.

Trump successfully getting his tax cuts through Congress has sparked an economic boom for We, the People. Do you see the pattern, folks? Thankfully, unlike most pro politicians, Trump presses forward, not giving a rat's derrière about what fake news media, Democrats, the American left, and establishment elites think or say about him.

By the way, I wish to thank the American left for pushing Trump farther to conservatism. Trump is not ideological, not viewing himself as liberal or conservative. But when Trump saw leftists' vitriolic response to him doing anything good for America, it opened his eyes, pushing him farther to our side.

Despicably, evil leftists have sought to falsely brand Trump-supporters as hateful white supremacists. We Trump-supporters are decent, hardworking Americans who love our country and desire the best for all Americans regardless of race, color, or creed. I am a black guy, proud and grateful to be an American. I even wrote and recorded the "Trump Train" song.

Despite the American left daily launching every weapon in its arsenal at Trump, he remains laser-focused on dismantling Obama's Punish America legacy. Thank you, fellow Christians for your prayers.

I do not believe that any other 2016 Republican presidential candidate would have been able to endure or match Trump's remarkable list of restored freedoms in his first year.

Entering 2018, I am most grateful to God that Donald J. Trump is in the White House. Folks, last November, we dodged a bullet big-time. Hillary Clinton would have marked the end of America as we know it for Lord knows how long.

The same way the American left exploited Obama's skin color, using it as a bludgeon against anyone who opposed Obama behaving as our dictatorial king, leftists would have used Hillary's gender.

Queen Hillary supported mass murdering of the unborn. Hillary defended the horrifically evil practice of partial-birth abortion. Partial-birth abortion is the abortionist delivering the entire baby's body except for the head. The abortionist then shoves scissors into the full-term baby's head to kill him.

Hillary would triple down on Obama's persecution of Christians. Hillary would dictatorially use government to cram various forms of sexual deviancy down mainstream Americans' throats. Hillary would celebrate trifling, lazy dependency on big government as the new American normal. As I said, anyone daring to oppose Hillary infecting Americans with leftists' socialist-progressive virus would be taken out – high-tech gang-lynched or thrown into jail.

In essence, Obama regarded the U.S. Constitution as toilet paper, overruling many of our constitutional and God-given freedoms and liberty. Trump has dramatically put the brakes on Obama transforming America into a socialist, progressive, and anti-Christian nation. And for that, I am extremely grateful to God and Trump.

Mary and I will spend much of 2018 traveling America, fighting to keep Republicans in control of the House and Senate, which will help Trump reverse Obama's crimes against us. If we stay firm in our support of Trump, together we will make our country great again. Quoting the Pointer Sisters' hit song, "I'm so excited!"                           http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2017/12/entering_2018_with_gratitude_to_god_and_donald_trump.html

To it's own insulated intended audience, nonsense like this seed appears to make it's own internal sense. 

To the other 65% of the country, this article is a joke. 

Trumpsters delude themselves that they are "the people". When you ask them for evidence that they are "the people" they point to a year old election in which their leader got 46% of the nation's votes. 

They do not have a smidgen of any other evidence to indicate that Trump has "the people" behind him. If they had polls that indicated that, doubtless they would use them even though they claim not to believe polls. Since there are zero polls showing Trump with a majority of support, it simplifies the issue for the Trumpsters. Just say all the polls are "fake".

It's worse than that.

Only 58% of Americans voted in the 2016 election, only 46% of them voted for Trump.  This comes out to a whopping 26% of Americans voted for Trump.

You can’t count those who didn’t vote at all as if theirs was a vote against the winner.

I'm not, I am counting those as people who DID NOT VOTE FOR Trump.  So, again, Trump only got 26% of American's votes.

And Hillary got about the same amount.

Only by percentage, by actual numbers she still had about 3 million more votes.

Had she won the electoral college, we wouldn’t have seen the above argument from you, now would we?

Wow, you're a bit slow.  I wouldn't be saying that Trump only got 27% of the people's vote if Hillary had won.  

Do you bother to read your own questions????

Your question:

Had she won the electoral college, we wouldn’t have seen the above argument from you, now would we?  

You did not ask if I would have made the same argument about her, you asked if I'd make the same argument.  To answer the question you were unable to, YES I would have if she had lost the popular but won the electoral votes.  The FACTS are still the same.

trying to make it appear as though Hillary had the overwhelming support of the American people.

I think the point everyone can agree to is that no candidate had the overwhelming support of eligible voters...........at least 10 million traditional voters stayed home.

Just out of curiosity, did Hillary run under different rules than every other candidate has?

Okay, one of THOSE questions.  Nope, she ran under the same rules.

Haven't we always had the electoral college voting in the President?

Yup.

Bringing up the non-relevant popular vote is ridiculous, why do the losers keep doing it? Does it soften the sting of losing to Trump?

You don't want an answer, you just want to justify your position.

MY TURN!  2 QUESTIONS FOR YOU...

Do you believe in following the Constitution?

Do you believe in the Constitutional doctrine of  "one person, one vote"?

Off by a factor of 10.  Around 100 million did not vote.  

no candidate had the overwhelming support of eligible voters

They never do, but winning by 3 million votes while still losing the electoral college vote, is the largest discrepancy between popular and electoral in history.  PLUS, a 3 million vote difference is larger than most of the Presidential elections.  Obama won his 2nd term with a smaller difference.

OK, misread my own source,

however, registered voters increased from 146 million in 2008 to 201 million in 2016

While "only" 129 million voted in 2016 - that leaves 36% ( 72 million ) who stay home.  ( compared to the 10% who did not vote in 2008 )

It really is sad.

Why do you want the Constitution you profess to loving so much changed?

Simple, I want to have my say in electing the person that heads this country.  That DOES NOT mean that my person will always win, that means that the will of the people is what chooses the winner, not an obsolete electoral college that twice now in recent history has awarded the job to the person that lost the election.  The electoral college was never designed to assign the position regardless of what the people want.

And I can state, without any fear of being wrong, that if it had gone the other way, Republicans would be screaming louder than anyone else about abolishing it.

You would to if the electoral college over-ruled your popularly elected nominee.  It needs to be changed because if the people cannot elect their choice of President, you may as well delete the "democratic" part of the "democratic republic" form of government that we are supposed to have.

Trump didn't win the popular vote or the majority of the American citizen's support. His approval ratings have dropped steadily since November of 2016 to the point where even GOP politicians oppose him.

They economically repressed most of the country the last 8 years

You must be talking about Kansas since they implemented republican tax cuts to the rich and made their cuts to everyone else.

Since Kansas enacted tax and spending cuts in 2012 and 2013, Brownback and his allies have argued that this fiscal potion would generate an explosion of economic growth. It didn’t. Overall growth and job creation in Kansas underperformed both the national economy and neighboring states. From January, 2014 (after both tax cuts passed) to April, 2017, Kansas gained only 28,000 net new non-farm jobs. By contrast, Nebraska, an economically similar state with a much smaller labor force, saw a net increase of 35,000 jobs.

The Deficit Explosion

While overall employment barely increased and economic activity was lower than other states, Kansas saw a significant increase in the number of individuals with business income.  The likely reason: That zero tax rate on pass-throughs.

The tax cuts did produce one explosion, however. The state’s budget deficit was expected to hit $280 million this year, despite major spending reductions. Kansas falls well below national averages in a wide range of public services from K-12 education to housing to police and fire protection, according to an analysis by the Urban Institute’s State and Local Finance Initiative. Under order from the state Supreme Court, the legislature has voted to increase funding for public schools by $293 million over the next two years.
