WHETHER HE RUNS OR NOT, HE'LL DEFINITELY SHAKE THINGS UP
"Our weak president that kisses everybody's ass is in more wars than I've ever seen…nobody respects us."
Whether or not you like Donald Trump or think he has a snowball's chance in hell of actually winning the Republican nomination and going on to remove Barrack Obama from the White House is beside the point; dude says what's on his mind, and you gotta LOVE IT.
There is a vacuum in American leadership at a time when the world cannot afford for the U.S. to take a back seat to Europe, NATO, China or anyone else to whom the president chooses to defer. The bad guys are watching and they like what they see; a hesitant America who is more concerned with "world etiquette" than with world leadership when it is so desperately needed.
Whether he's blasting China for "screwing us," saying Ron Paul is a "nice guy who can't win," or telling Bill O'Reilly that America should "take the oil" in Iraq as reimbursement for the cost of the war, Trump is not afraid to speak his mind.
Between the mealy-mouth Obama and Congressional double-speak that continue to plague our nation, this guy is a no-nonsense, straight-shooting breath of fresh air. He speaks our language and he says the things we'd say if we could. What's not to like about that?
So why would the billionaire run? "America is becoming the laughing-stock of the world," the Donald says and he's sick and tired of it. "The United States has become a whipping post for the rest of the world," and Trump intends to right the ship.
Obama's promise of "restoring respect" for America has turned into a pathetic joke; not only has he failed to live up to that pledge, the exact opposite has occurred: America is less respected, and more ominously, less feared as a result of Obama's vacillation, lack of desire to lead, and proclivity to take a back seat to Europe on the world stage.
While Trump is saying the things we want to hear, and reciting conservative talking points at every opportunity, his chances of securing the nomination lie somewhere between nil and none.
His chances of stirring things up, focusing the conversation on what's wrong with America, and holding mealy-mouthed, double-speaking politicians to a higher level of accountability are excellent as long as the Donald keeps talking. The Rat suspects that will be for some time, and he loves it.
Donald thinks Bill Ayers wrote "Dreams from My Father" too.--
