NOT GOOD: The Donald Trump Problem — And the Naive Voters Who Support Him
Whenever I hear Donald Trump discuss the issues I feel like I’m listening to an immature 15-year- old. His outrageous over-statements and bragging are irresponsible and childlike. However, they sometimes appeal to equally immature and/or uninformed voters – not good!
A lot of under-informed voters like Donald Trump because of his bold and confident and bombastic pronouncements that he would make America great again by fixing all of our problems.Â
Â
Trump equates running his enterprises, where he is king, to running the US Government and Military, where he is not king. He would be restrained by the Constitution, the Rule-of-Law, the Separation-of-Powers, the Congress, the Courts, Public Opinion, International Law and a vigilant Media.    Â
Â
As the senior executive and controlling shareholder of Trump companies, Donald has been able to operate as a quasi-autocrat – imposing his will, thinking and values on his organizations. He apparently thinks he could do likewise as President and Commander-in-Chief.  He thinks he could force his will and ideas on the USA and our allies – as he has done upon Trump organizations. Not so!
Â
Frankly, this is naïve. The USA is a Constitutional, Law-and-Order, Representative Republic. No one – not even a de facto Marxist/Fabian-Socialist/Radical-Leftist like Obama – can dictate the nation’s actions and results without running into legal, Constitutional and Geopolitical restraints.
Â
The Leftist mainstream media like to feature Trump’s outlandish bloviations in an obvious effort to encourage his Republican nomination and/or to encourage an independent presidential run. Either result would assure a Hillary presidential victory – and a continuation of the failed Obama/Pelosi/Reid/Clinton/Democrat-Leftist big, centralized, authoritarian, Leftist government in Washington. Â
Â
If Republicans have any practical sense, they will drop Trump and quickly counter the Leftist’s desire to run against him. The Conservative RedState disinvite in Atlanta is a good example of what must be done.  Trump’s CNN attack against debate co-host Megyn Kelly for what he considered unfriendly/unfair questions shows his immaturity and poor judgment. What does he think will happen if the Dems take him on.Â
Â
Frankly, Republicans should disqualify Trump from future Republican forums. He’s not really a loyal Republican – just a super-rich, immature, real-estate tycoon, quite full of himself.
In God we must trust . . . but we must always do our part – to secure and promote the truth and a better way – to protect our freedom and interests – and to defend the Judeo-Christian American-Way.
