Is Trump Stupid or Insane?

It's all the rage for national Democrats and members of the lamestream media to claim Donald Trump is dangerous to the nation and to question his intelligence and sanity.

Below are a collection of policies from the Obama administration and, where appropriate, Trump's reaction. After reviewing the list, you tell me who is/was a danger to America. You tell me who is stupid and possibly mentally incompetent.

• Obama and the national Democrats passed the unconstitutional Obamacare law virtually destroying one-sixth of the economy while lying about the costs and benefits. 
• Trump - With little help from congressional Republicans, Trump is making attempts to rollback Obamacare and return the nation's healthcare back into the hands of the people.
• Obama oversaw a dramatic expansion of federal government regulation to the tune of a 96,000 page Federal Registry.
• Trump has reduced the Registry by 35% in one year!
• Obama reigned over a stagnant economy with lethargic wage growth and companies fleeing the United States for more tax and regulation-friendly countries
• Trump pushed for and signed a new tax law, which appears to reverse both.
• Obama handcuffed the military with ridiculous rules of engagement.
• Trump removed them.
• Obama and the Democrats are advocates for open borders and amnesty for illegal immigrants.
• Trump wants to "build a wall" and restrict immigration despite opposition from national Republicans who are beholden to the Chamber of Commerce, low wage lobby.
• Obama apologized for America.
• Trump promotes America.
• Obama told us to get used to the new normal.
• Trump told us that we can make America great again.
• Obama endorsed policies whereby men who identified as a woman could use woman's bathrooms.
• Trump opposes that policy.
• Obama destroyed the reputation of The Justice Department by appointing two of the most corrupt people to ever hold the position of Attorney General - Eric Holder and Loretta Lynch.
• Trump is trying to restore the agency's honor by appointing Senator Jeff Sessions to the post.
• Obama appointed two affirmed left-wing, judicial activists to the Supreme Court - Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor.
• Trump appointed a constitutional constructionist Neil Gorsuch.
• Obama said he would move the United States embassy in Israel to Jerusalem.
• Trump is actually doing it.
• Obama expanded welfare to increase dependence on the federal government.
• Trump has plans to reduce welfare and add work requirements to recipients.
• Obama was a strong advocate for gun control.
• Trump is a strong advocate for the Second Amendment.
• Obama constantly made excuses for radical Islamic terrorists.
• Trump does not.

What about some of these from Obama's Greatest Hits:

• He visited 57 states.
• He laughed off Mitt Romney's suggestion that Russia was a formidable geopolitical foe. A few short years later Russia had invaded Ukraine and was fully embedded in Iran and Syria.
• Benghazi
• Uranium One
• The Arab Spring
• Libya
• Bundy grazing rights standoff.
• The Iran deal.
• Called Fort Hood shooting "workplace violence."
• The Trump Dossier

Never Trumpers and the Constitution

The angst over the election of Donald Trump appears to be driving some of our fellow citizens crazy. They fear what he will do in regards to abortion, gay marriage, Obamacare, education, climate change, welfare, and immigration. I believe this offers us with a once-in-a-generation opportunity to spread the message of limited government to an audience that, under normal circumstances, would not be receptive to it.

What if we were to steer the conversation with these non-Trumpers away from their hysterical claims and toward one of returning the federal government to its rightful and constitutional place?

Explain to them why the power wielded by the federal government exceeds any of the Founders' wildest expectations. Explain to them that the states created the federal government and granted it the power to do a few things; everything else was left to the states.

Point them to Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution which lays out the list of the enumerated (and limited) powers granted to the federal government. It is comprised of 18 paragraphs.

• 6 paragraphs concern the military and the militia. 
• 4 paragraphs concern money or taxes. 
• 1 paragraph concerns commerce. 
• 1 paragraph concerns naturalization and bankruptcies. 
• 1 paragraph concerns post offices and post roads. 
• 1 paragraph concerns copyrights and patents. 
• 1 paragraph concerns federal courts. 
• 1 paragraph concerns maritime crimes. 
• 1 paragraph concerns the governance of the District of Columbia. 
• 1 paragraph gives Congress the power “to make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers.” 

Next you can show them the Tenth Amendment: "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people."

Finally, point out to them that the federal government (the one whose power is supposed to be restricted) is now one of the nation’s largest creditor, debtor, lender, employer, consumer, contractor, grantor, property owner, tenant, insurer, health care provider, and pension guarantor. Then pose the question: does that sound like the limited federal government laid out in the Constitution?

With the case laid out, you can now point out to your distraught non-Trumper friends that they have nothing to fear because the Constitution does not mention: marriage, health insurance, the education of our children, gun control, labor laws, abortion, bailouts of corporations, stimulus packages, regulation of carbon dioxide emissions, welfare programs, farm subsidies, regulation of drugs, or foreign aid. After their cynical laugh and some time of reflection, they may be willing to get involved in the rollback movement.

Basket of Deplorables

Last week Hillary Clinton characterized 50% of Donald J. Trump supporters as a "basket of deplorables"

• Racist
• Sexist
• Homophobic
• Xenophobic
• Islamaphobic 

How could 50% of Hillary voters be characterized? A "vat of despicables"?

• Intellectually lazy
• Ill-informed
• Intolerant
• Moochers
• Anti-constitutional
• Hypocrites
• Coercive
• Anti-American
• Liars
• Anti-democracy.

Donald Trump Scares Me

So far I have been able to find three reasons why people plan to vote for Hillary Clinton:

1. She is a woman and her election would be historic. 
2. She is a Democrat.
3. Donald Trump. Because he is mean, scary, unpredictable, unlikable, and/or crazy and he often employs a harsh tone, they see no other alternative but to vote for Hillary.

Meanwhile back in the real world, Hillary continues to prove that she is dreadfully under-qualified for the office of the presidency (eerily similar to her former boss, and current office holder). Look how well things have turned out for the country!

• She never started a business. 
• She never managed a company. 
• She never had to make payroll. 
• Her claim to fame is her husband. 

Her entire life is one lie on top of another.

• She lied about Whitewater. 
• She lied about the women who Bill Clinton’s sexual abused. 
• She lied about the women with whom Bill had consensual sex. 
• She lied about Hillarycare. 
• She lied about being broke when her and Bill left the White House. 
• She lied about landing in Bosnia ‘under sniper fire’.
• Her carpet-bagging Senate seat was a lie. 
• She lied about Benghazi. 
• She lied about the email servers. 
• She lied about the Clinton Foundation. 

She is corrupt, conniving, dishonest, untrustworthy, shady, and, on top of that, a bitch! Consider . . .

• She was fired from the House Judiciary committee investigating the Nixon Watergate scandal because, “She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality” and she hasn’t stopped lying since. 
• She will continue Obama’s fundamental transformation of America. 
• She will pack the Supreme Court with more Elena Kagan’s and Sonia Sotomayor's. 
• She will continue to increase illegal immigration and refuse to enforce immigration law.
• The $100,000 cattle futures trading gain.
• The numerous accounts of her cursing at state troopers, Secret Service Agents, and subordinates. 
• Her $300,000 speeches. 
• The Marc Rich pardon. 
• The Travelgate scandal.
• The mysterious circumstances surrounding the deaths of many Clinton associates. 
• The renting of the Lincoln bedroom.
• She laughed about defending a child rapist. 
• She was opposed to gay marriage before she was for it.
• She was anti-illegal immigration before she was for amnesty.
• Illegal contributions from foreign nations. 
• She will increase federal gun control rules. 
• She will take us to war. 
• She will be susceptible to blackmail due to her hacked emails.
• She will continue to grow the number of Americans on welfare. 
• She will continue growing the national debt. 
• She will continue the Federal Reserve’s out-of-control monetary policies. 
• She will claim to fix the economy by spending more on “infrastructure, roads, and bridges”. 
• She put the final nail in the coffin of the coal industry. 
• She will increase regulations. 
• She will raise taxes. 
• She admires Margaret Sanger. 
• She is a disciple of Saul Alinsky. 

But she is a woman and her election would be historic. And because Donald Trump is mean, scary, unpredictable, unlikable, and/or crazy and he often speaks in a harsh tone, he is disqualified.

Trump vs. Hillary - Words More Dangerous Than Actions

Donald J. Trump is constantly bashed with subjective name-calling:

• "He is a racist asshole." 
• "He is risky."
• "He is a bigot."
• "He makes me nervous."
• "He scares me."
• "He is unfit."
• "He is unhinged."
• "He is crazy."

While Hillary Clinton is in fact:

• Responsible for the deaths of at least five people including a U.S. Ambassador.
• A habitual liar. 
• An unindicted felon. 
• Callous and heartless toward rape victims, babies in the womb, and victims of her husband's countless sexual harassment episodes. 
• A woman with no career accomplishments that qualifies her to run a small business much less be President of the United States.
• An influence peddler.
• Conniving
• Careless
• Reckless
• Corrupt
• Crooked
• Incompetent
• Dishonest

In addition:

• Hillary has never created a single job.
• She has never started a company; never made payroll. 
• She has been implicated in quid pro quo arrangements between the State Department and the Clinton Foundation.

Conclusion: Donald Trump's words are more dangerous to the nation than the actions of Hillary Clinton.

Intellectual Midget Elizabeth Warren Calls Donald Trump a Loser

The intellectual midget Elizabeth Warren called Donald J. Trump a loser primarily based on his handful of bankrupt businesses.

This coming from a woman who has never started a business much less had several fail. She has not created a single job! Ms. Warren does not understand the free market, she wants to kill it. She has no idea what capitalism is. She prefers socialism and crony capitalism!

She goes on to explain what hangs in the balance of this election: affordable college, accountability on Wall Street, the Supreme Court, rich people paying their fair share, expanding Social Security, investments in infrastructure, turn back hatred, sexism, racism, and xenophobia.

#1 - College is not affordable because of the federal government’s meddling.

#2 - Wall Street was heavily regulated before the 2008 crash and yet, not a single federal agency saw the crash coming!

#3 - The Supreme Court: she means no Constitutional originalist judges are allowed because that is where the Left truly advances their agenda. They already got Obamacare, gay marriage, and much of the unconstitutional regulatory state blessed by the Court!

#4 - “Fair share?” OMG! My head is going to explode with this shallow, worthless claim. How much is fair Senator?

#5 - Expand the bankrupt Social Security program. Brilliant!

#6 - More worthless rhetoric about infrastructure spending. The Keynesian-fest we have just lived through did not end the recession but Warren wants more!

#7 - She finishes with the obligatory list of name calling. Anyone who does not agree with the Left’s failed agenda must be slandered with claims of racism, sexism, and xenophobia!
