Dear The People Of South Carolina,

Another day has passed and Donald Trump has yet to sue Ted Cruz. Donald, the man who says there will be less talk more action, is talking without action. Ironic, wouldn't you say?

Donald Trump said that he supports the individual mandate of Obamacare. He said "Well, I like the mandate. Okay, so here's where I'm a little bit different. I don't want people dying on the streets. And I say this all the time." The man who jokes about shooting people on 5th avenue, terrorism, said he doesn't "want people dying in the streets." Unbelievable. Well, in this race, what should be expected of Trump? While Ted Cruz was fighting against the Gang Of 8 Bill, Trump was donating to Hillary Clinton and Mitch McConell. While Ted keeps talking about uniting "courageous conservatives", Trump is tearing this country apart. Whether or not you agree with the banning of all Muslims entering into this country, that has divided many people from each other. I support it, where as some dear friends of mine oppose it. Some have deleted me off their Facebook, while some talk about it but we realize what kind of BS this is and we move on with our lives. Trump has divided the same if not more people during his 8 month candidacy, than Barack has done over his tenure as president. If Trump is dividing us on "issues" already, imagine what his presidency will be like. 

Speaking of Trump, remember that veterans thing he did during the Iowa debate? Well, I got blasted on The Mind Of Clint Twitter page when I said the money wasn't going to the veterans. I mean, blasted. Nasty things were said to me. Well, a report came out from The Weekly Standard, saying some vet groups hadn't received any money from that event. That was how many weeks ago now? When they wanted information, nobody could let them know on the status of their money. Veterans are treated wrong in the candidacy of Donald Trump. Imagine how they will be treated when he's president? They were promised money. They haven't gotten it yet. Why the heck not? Absolutely no excuse. How long will it be? God forbid it, but I'm sure those groups need that money and imagine if some were to fall ill because of a lack of funds. Trump doesn't care because he got his air time. He had his few more seconds of fame in the limelight. The bottom line is, the money didn't go to the vets. I was right. It was all a stunt in Donald's eyes. 

Trump said he was always against the war in Iraq. Well, he said a few things back in 2002 that contradict himself now! Like yesterday's post: hypocrisy and history are funny when put together. You can read that article or my blog post from yesterday because I'm sick and tired of the speeches coming from him. Buzzfeed did that article, by the way. I'll leave that link and others down at the bottom for your clicking pleasure, like I always do. Trump complains about no action, all talk in D.C., yet he keeps talking about suing Ted Cruz. He supports, yet another, bit of obamacare and says he doesn't like to see people dying in the streets--after joking about killing people on a well known street. He keeps dividing the American people on issues, while claiming to be a master deal maker. He claims to be for the veterans but he won't give them the money he said he raised for them. This is all in the past month! This isn't ancient history, everybody. This is as recent as 18 hours ago!

The South Carolinians are going to vote today. After a death of a great man who served in the United States Supreme Court, Antonin Scalia, we are now awake at the force of tyranny and oppression. I hope so, anyways. The people of South Carolina have such an important job. It's not the first and it's defiantly not the last, but it is equally important. This is not something to blink an eye over. We have a solid conservative who, all his life, has pushed the constitution as important as the bible, running for president. We have a doctor who performed surgeries never done before in the history of man, running for president. And we have a businessman who is more hypocritical than a Clinton. People say Cruz can't win because he's not electable like Trump is. If you don't think the liberals, Bernie or Hillary, won't use the hypocrisy that has happened this past month to power themselves to the white house, you would be blind and stupid. They will. That's why we need a conservative with a record of keeping our liberties where they should be: on the constitution, given from God to Us.

Here's a YouTube video from Ted Cruz's speech from the Conservative Review Comvention the other day. It's nice to see  a candidate without a podium or a teleprompter.

Hypocrisy And History Are Funny When Together

Another day, another dollar. Well, billions that is. $19,022,100,000,000 or just about  $60,000 per citizen we now owe. For what? Socialism? Tyranny? An outright destruction of the constitution? I wonder if Bernie will make that free for us too? Let's just swipe away the overall debt. Heck! If he can make my college debt go away with a stroke of a pen, why not the overall debt? I thought I would bring that up since everybody seems to be talking about Trump v Pope. I think some important things deserve some thought. 

Trump today decided not to choose Israel over Palestine. He said, "let me be sort of a neutral guy,”. How about, no. If we elect you, I don't want you to be wishy-washy on this. Israel is an ally and therefore, we should help and protect them in any way that we can. It's interesting, this 'neutral' statement is coming from the man who jokes about terrorism on 5th avenue. This 'neutral' statement comes from a man who isn't afraid to say "p*ssy". This 'neutral' statement come from the man who is the poster child for everything against political correctness. But, when it comes to is real, he prefers to "be sort of a neutral guy,”! The man who claims there's nothing but talk in DC, has been talking about suing Ted Cruz for well over a month now. Frankly, I don't see a difference between him and the phonies in Washington. 

Trump is happy though, he doesn't need to be talking about the issues you and I care about, though. Now it's "TRUMP VERSUS THE POPE!" all over the media. Who cares? The Pope gets on my nerves but if he wants to say things, let him say things. I know many Catholics who don't give a darn either. We are sick and tired of these bogus situations happening all the time. Not a word on the national debt today. It's all: did you hear what the Pope said about Trump? AND about what Trump said about the Pope? Let's move on already and talk about issues. Trump won't stand with Isreal. He keeps saying the Iranian deal was a "horrible deal". How is it horrible? Was it not enough anti-Isreal? That is a serious question. It's a "horrible deal" but what makes it "horrible" in the eyes of Donald Trump? Has he mentioned that? It would be awesome if there was a link. 

Now, did you know that Trump was actually in favor for the Iraq war? Oh, yeah. From Buzzfeed: 'In the interview, which took place on Sept. 11, 2002, Stern asked Trump directly if he was for invading Iraq. "Yeah I guess so," Trump responded. "I wish the first time it was done correctly."' Now, if you watch the speeches, if you watch the debates or any tv interview, he always brings up it was a horrible mistake going into Iraq. The last debate had a "YUGE" moment between Trump and Bush on this topic. Jeb stood up for his brother, as he should have. The interview continues: "We still don't know what Iraq is up to or whether it has the material to build nuclear weapons. I'm no warmonger, but the fact is, if we decide a strike against Iraq is necessary, it is madness not to carry the mission to its conclusion. When we don't, we have the worst of all worlds: Iraq remains a threat, and now has more incentive than ever to attack us." One thing that catches my attention, Trump said he is "no warmonger..." I thought he was pro destroying ISIS into the afterlife? I thought he was willing to nuke ISIS? If he's not a warmonger and he has changed his mind from Iraq is a threat to it was a mistake, what's to change his mind about ISIS? He pro destroying ISIS today, but in 12 months how do we know he won't change his mind?


Maybe this is why republican voters are turning to Cruz? In a new poll (if we must), Trump trails Cruz 56 to 40 percent. What does this mean? Republicans are saying they are becoming more conservatives. My fear is, with these left wing tactics being used on Cruz, by Trump, democrats will favor Trump over Cruz. In this case, Trump will win because of size, not substance. There are still 44 percent of republicans at this point in time, not including the democrats supporting Trump.


We know, from history, these types never win in a general election. Mitt Romney lost, John McCain lost, just to name recent history. I haven't even scratched the hypocrisy of Trump with this post. I only select a few and create questions based off of what I see and hear. This is an interesting time. It's not over yet but time is coming close. I don't want a deal maker, I want a constitution after this is all over with.

The GOP And The Trump/Rubio Establishment

One candidate is threatening to sue another, while calling him a liar, while that prey is being attacked by a different candidate, who's also calling him a liar. Now, one would think that the one being attached by two people would be the liar, however, it is not the case. Let's go back to the establishment for a bit...

What did I say about how you can tell which candidate(s) is(are) a front for the establishment? Easy: when a candidate is being pushed as the anti-Obama, that's the guy who's is a front man for the establishment. Now, I mentioned Trump was also a front for the establishment but he hides very well. Well, we know both Rubio and Trump are loved by the GOP Establishment. This is fact. Rubio is claiming to be the anti-Obama because he is being told to do so. That's why he memorizes lines like the debate a few weeks ago. He's a puppet, if you will. Trump keeps saying he would have made a better deal with Iran than what Obama has done. Now aside from that, him and Rubio are saying one thing in common: Cruz is a liar. Trump, being the personification of 'we the people's' anger, is saying he will sue Cruz on just about everything. What did I say a week ago: Bring it. If his presidency will be full of as much talk as he is about these stupid lawsuits, nothing will get done. He will be name calling and talking the talk without walking the walk. THAT ALONE, is worth not voting for him. So Rubio and Trump are calling Cruz a liar. On what?

Well, just about everything. From being a Canadian citizen, from being pro illegal alien (I don't say immigrant because they are aliens in this blog), speaking of which, Mr. Anti-Political Correctness still calls them illegal immigrants..thought I would mention that...  It's just crazy. Meanwhile, what's has Trump that would be considered worthy of being an actual issue? Well, he did bring up that he thought it was strange that Judge Scalia had a pillow placed strange. But I mean, the wall? Nope. He now thinks they should have a visa right back into this country. Obamacare? He believes the government should take care of people. So, that would be a nope. What about the SCOTUS appointment? I think he said he would bring in his sister or something. I mean, come on. She's a hardcore liberal! That doesn't help the conservative movement! Oh wait, he thinks conservatives got us into the mess we are in right now. Rubio? He's speaking Spanish and he thinks Cruz can't do it, so he calls him a liar-but gets interrupted by Spanish speech from none other than Ted Cruz. So, again, who is lying? I won't even bring up gang of eight. 

Now, Obama is saying "Congress needs to do their job" on the SCOTUS appointment. Umm, has he read the constitution? Article 2, section 2, clause 2 has no mention that congress must act immediately to appoint somebody. In fact, congress has the power to do nothing! Wouldn't that be nice if the government as a whole did that for a day? So, get off their back, Obama. They are doing their job: protecting the United States people from a tyrannical government.

Trump says he will make sure America will have the strongest military on the face of this earth. Ok, now what? Cruz wants to see if "sand will glow". I have yet to see his knowledge go beyond his weak understanding of the nuclear triad. If you want a president who will focus on a strong millinery, shouldn't they have an understanding on it first? Rubio mentioned this a few debates ago. Now, since they are on the same team, not a word is being brought up about it to Trump. Now, Cruz should use this to point out as well! Rubio and Trump are battling with the same military at this point. I've given a few points from my head, I'm sure the more brains together, the better on this issue. Cruz needs to spend more time attacking Trump and Rubio as together; as one force. They both are displaying non issues towards the people, they both call him a liar which he has history and facts to back Cruz up, they both spend their time saying they want illegals out of here, while supporting a visa program for them to get back in once they are deported. Meanwhile, Cruz keeps pressing issues like ISIS, remember them? Cruz keeps pushing issues like executive amnesty and the away with sanctuary cities, the string millinery, with a plan of action that will be thought out, not acted from anger personified from the American people. 

Now we all know Trump was against the war in Iraq way way way back in 2003, right? You should because he brings it up just as much as Kasich says his dad was a mailman. But what did he actually say? Well, the national review dug it up and found what he said: “Well, he has either got to do something or not do something, perhaps, because perhaps shouldn’t be doing it yet and perhaps we should be waiting for the United Nations, you know. He’s under a lot of pressure. I think he’s doing a very good job. But, of course, if you look at the polls, a lot of people are getting a little tired. I think the Iraqi situation is a problem. And I think the economy is a much bigger problem as far as the president is concerned.” So...yeah. Sure! He was so, against it. I don't see it being a solid one way or the other. Why is he so washy on this, but now claims to be a man of principle? This is the same guy who is using 9/11 to get votes. The same guy who jokes about terrorism on 5th avenue. One thing that struck out to me was the economy should be of more importance to the president. The economy over national security? Without national security, you don't have an economy! This is why I believe he is not 100% sold on the wall idea. If he is a man of principle, his mindset would not change but we can see it has. Then, he was pro economy over national security. Now he's national security over economy. Dude. What kind of principle do you actually believe in?

This is a question I would say to Trump. We need to figure this out. Again, more brains together, the better. If I can figure this out, imagine what Bernie's camp can muster up.

Welcome Back George Bush

I really liked George. I don't know if that was because I was young, but even to this day, he is still the president in my eyes. He was the president during my young adult years. He is who I will forever remember as The President of The United States. I admire his love of country, I admire his whit, I even admire his speech habits. There's something incredibly human to George Bush. I'm talking about Bush 43. 41 I don't have any memory of because I was way too young. 43, though, I remember him greatly. I also remember how he was treated by the media. "The afterlife" as him and the former Laura put it, has to be nothing but bliss. I do not blame him for being out of the media for a while. It is great to see him back. 

I just had a few thoughts on the speech, what little I heard of it, while speaking for his brother, Jeb Bush. Jeb, is defiantly not my nominee. He has a history of flip flopping and he has done things that are not as conservative as he claims to be. But his brother George said something that reminded me of what I wrote about earlier. He said, "these are tough times and I understand Americans and angry are frustrated but we do not need someone in the Oval Office who mirrors and enflames our anger and frustrations." This is exactly right. I am angry. A am pissed off at the government, the media, the establishment-you name it. However, I recognize Trump personified that anger from the beginning and he continues to do so. 

Who here can faithfully raise their hand and tell me they think 100% clear while they are angry, upset or just plain mad? I know I am not. This is why we need a president who is not angry, upset or mad. We need a president who is able to rid themselves of those angry thoughts because they lead to nothing worthwhile. They don't accomplish anything. This is why Trump is not the leader we think he will be. Trump is still in that angry phase where words come out that you could regret later on. Things are said that you cannot take back. He joked about terrorism on 5th avenue and people don't even think about it! This is dangerous. We need a president who can breathe and focus for a few moments. Nobody can do that being in an irrational state of mind. 

It was good to see 43 back up again because I miss his leadership. We didn't talk about racism during his presidency, we didn't talk about hate crimes or anti-Christian this or anti-Muslim that... Things such as morale in this country were very high because we had a president who had faith in We The People. We had a leader who knew that we knew more about our families than he did. We had a president who loved this country. We had a person in charge who was calm and thought things through. I miss that. I miss a president like that.

Is Jeb that guy? I don't think so. I think his last name is a big enough turn off for most, including myself. 320 million people and all we can find are a Bush or a Clinton? Unfortunately, we have a candidate who leads in the polls (like they matter) who still enflames the anger brought from the American people. Let's all calm down and regain our feet on our principles again because the best years are to come.

We just need to think clearly through it.

Donald Showed His True Colors At Debate

First off, what a sad day for liberty and Americanism. Antonin Scalia was a man of principle and courage, who understood the constitution as a form of a contract meaning it's meaning does not change over the passage of time, rather it stays true. I am working on a post that will go more in depth on Justice Scalia that should be out within this week. My prayers are sent to his family. 

Second, I finally have cell service again. Last night was another one of those nights and I was going to write a blog post about Friday but it worked out because Saturday ended up being a great day for thinking. So much has happened and I want to spend time mostly on the debate and there's a piece of news that not a whole of people are talking about, to my knowledge, that I want to bring up. So, let's begin:

Who the heck woke Donald Trump wrong? He must've been having a bad day. Why? He in the lead on all the polls..he keeps reminding us of this greatness. Tonight's debate was a "YUGE" eye awakener for some based on Twitter. Seeing tweets like 'Trump is defiantly losing this debate' or 'the soft spoken closing statement by Trump was his best moment'-I mean, seriously. He was on fire. To quote him, I could see 'blood coming from' his eyes..everywhere. He brought up 9/11 again, not cool dude. He kept interrupting and over talking everybody even if it wasn't his turn. It's no surprise he got the most talking time out of everybody. He made himself a friend of Ben Carson and I am so happy Ted Cruz brought up the knife/ belt buckle story as well as the time Trump said 'Carson is a psychopath'. Ted played Trump like a violinist plays their violin: perfectly. Carson didn't take a jab at any of them, continuing his principle of no personal attacks. That says something impressive. I doubt I could pull that. Trump yelled, overspoke, was angry in every sound bite except his closing statement, he called people liars, attacked pretty much everybody with the last name Bush, and two faced against Ben Carson, Marco Rubio, Jeb Bush, John Kasich and Ted Cruz. Seriously: who pissed of Trump? What did the people of South Carolina or even the general public do to deserve such a poor excuse for a man?

It cracks me up, when Trump said the conservatives are part of the reason why we are in this mess, and then less than 24 hours later explains how Scalia was essentially a force for good because he was a conservative. He disses Conservatives but praises Reagan for being a conservative deal maker with what's his face-does it matter? That deal never happened anyways! It's part of Donald's own fabricated history. It's unbelievable how flip floppy he is. There's no way he will win in the final elections with this kind of history. If you flip flop more than a candidate on the democrat side, by name, you will lose. Don't you think they will use that against you? How can you even hold a candle up to the hypocrisy that great? Trump will not win based off of that and it doesn't matter how great of a deal maker you are. Also, he needs to stop acting like a friend to those whom he disrespected at one point. Trump better take the old warning: he isn't invincible. He has failed many times. Iowa was not the last and you would be more wet behind the ears than a Jr. High virgin if you believed that. 

Trump showed his true colors by saying 'thank you' to Ted and then 5 seconds later interrupting him-during his question-telling, "Ted is a nasty guy". Seriously? Why did you thank him then? Can't you make a sensible judgement or do you act on sudden movements? Let me say something: we do not need a president who is this intense. If something gets mistaken or interpreted wrong, Denmark could be nuked! To change your opinion, in this case it was literally 5 seconds, is unbelievable. To act so childish in front of the American people when you are supposed to be a leader meaning accept your faults and humble yourself when you are wrong. That does not mean to avoid the question and say things like 'he's a nasty man...9/11 was under his reign...planned parenthood does many great things...' Etc. I could go on and on. I mean, this debate..wow. Trump showed how much of an, excuse my language, Trump showed how much of an ass he truly is, on that stage last night. There was no reason to act like that. That is not showing leadership, that's showing ignorance. 

I cannot wait to see what the polls will say because Trump showed no value in this debate. Is this how he has always been, of have I finally woken up to the point of no return? If I was still a supporter of Trump, I would be questioning myself. Seriously. This was pathetic. I'll leave a link to the debate. Unbelievable to call yourself a conservative less than a day after claiming conservatives were part of the problem. No thank you, Mr. Trump. No thank you. 

Last but not least, socialism versus capitalism. I wrote a short post about the differences between the liberal -isms a few days ago. Radio host, constitutional Doctor, author and true blooded American gave a great bit on socialism verses capitalism. It sums up to this: "We have a generation of people who think socialism is a great idea, yet they cannot define what it is!" I implore anybody to listen to it because Mark really nails it to Bernie and to socialism, Marxism, all of the -isms I mentioned about the other day. It's one of the greatest episodes in my opinion. Give it a listen and share because every American needs to know how evil liberalism is. It's anti-constitutional and its anti-American. Mark explains it better than anybody else I know. 

Good job for Mitch McConnell for standing up for conservatives too, by the way. Let's hold off as much as we can because we are only 1 vote away from losing our bill of rights in the SCOTUS.
