About me? I don't subscribe to your opinion that Trump sold out our national security. It certainly hasn't been proven so. Actually, it appears to me that he has, and is further trying, to bolster national security with his border policies, strengthening our military, placing more financial responsibility on the EU for its own protection instead of merely draining our resources, attempting to create more equitable trade policies which also entail more protection of our intellectual properties from Chinese forms of theft, trying harder than past presidents to prohibit NK's drive to become a nuclear threat as well as ergo Iran's, assisting Eastern Europe's protection, and unleashing our own economic potential with tax and deregulation policies.
Ultimately, for me, it's not about Clinton or Trump. It's about who is most willing to protect our national sovereignty. Who is least likely to continue the destruction of our constitutional system. Who is most likely to preserve our uniquely American values, our American notion of individual liberty, our notion of unalienable rights, and who is most likely not to lead us into what I consider irrational notions of what and who we are as human beings.
All that requires paying attention to more than the personalities of the President. All of that requires that the body politic, our citizens, are clearly aware of those basic, fundamental issues, rather than being distracted by surface likes or dislikes, current fads and fancies, fetishistic devotion to individual and group differences promoting each of them to an icon of unalienable behavior which must be granted the legal permission to require the rest of us to serve them as they wish.
It requires that, at core, we all have a principle that unites us. Not a person, not a savior . . . a principle. The who that is ultimately responsible is not Clinton or Trump. The who is us. We may be divided into various factions, but the clusters of factions that merge into the two main adversaries are those who desire the sovereign, bottom up, constitutional system on which we were founded, and those who want a global union based on top down Progressive, socialist, communist views that we are best served by a basically all-powerful governing bureaucracy.
Frankly, this politically biased debating on what a horrible person Trump is, or, for that matter who Clinton or any other flawed human acting as a politician is, devolves into sickening hate rants. They are tiresome, boring, destructive, and off the mark. They don't discuss the proverbial heart of the matter.
Frankly, I don't want to participate in irrational character assassinations. It is stupid, non-productive, nauseating.
I would rather discuss things that matter. If you want to have a civilized discussion on the nature of government and which type you prefer and why, I'm in.
And when I vote, I will do so on the basis of what is the most likely choice available that most possibly will maintain what we have left of the Constitutional American Republic.
Regardless of whose pussies the candidate has touched.
