The election for the future of America

I have a secret admirer.  She sends me cards without a return address in response to my guest posts in the High Desert Star.  We were on the same wave length when discussing money in politics as she supported the brief candidacy of Bernie Sanders.  This last card begins, “Glen, you are such a dope!”  What has gotten her all riled up you ask?  Right, her boy sold out for a Hillary funded house on the lake and she is left with only Donald J. Trump as an alternative.

I get it, this is a female response of displaced anger but then she proceeds to recant the Democratic talking points against Mr. Trump.  “Trump is a trigger happy whack job and suffers from terminal adolescent arrested development.  He will not win, and he will withdraw before the election because his ego will not accept his tanking in the polls.  He won’t release his taxes because he has a great deal to hide.  Love your libertarian friend.”  One might question her thinking but most of all her definition of love that precludes considering an opposing opinion.

The American female, particularly the older white hens, disrespect Mr. Trump because he is an Alpha male, an old school alpha male type that has never shown his face in American politics for about forty years.  It must be a real shock to accept the fact that there are just a few left around.  The definition of an alpha male is a dominating character among a group of individuals.  We have coyotes out here in Landers and most are emaciated specimens in survival mode except for one good old boy who is the leader of the pack.  He is fat and happy with a swagger that refuses to run when confronted with a human foe.

My libertarian friend, America needs an alpha male in the White House at this historical hour to stand up for the interests of the little people, those of us without political power.  Yes, Mr. Trump fits the definition of an alpha male, he does have a very large ego but that ego is our only hope to change the hen house that America has become thanks to our predictable and precise politicians who have sold out America to every moneyed interest in the world.  No one who is not an alpha male could stand up against the growing fury from our domineering freedom robbing American political structures.

Democratic President Franklin Roosevelt said, “I ask you to judge me by the enemies I have made.”  Please allow me to list the enemies that are confronting Mr. Trump, then judge him.  Possibly, Ms. Libertarian, you may discover an alpha male that is not really that offensive to your delicate nature.
  
These are the enemies of Mr. Trump because these are the folks who are enslaving the people.

1.    Big government Democrats who will need a greatly expanded tax base (taxing the rich won’t do it).
     2.    Big government Republicans who only care about their funding sources from the free trade lobby.
     3.    Minorities, red, yellow, black and white who have been deceived and as a result will make their America the land of the rich and the poor.
    4.    All politicians who get their paychecks from taxpayers, the Wall Street moneyed interests, corporations and the big banks.
    5.    Government bureaucrats, federal, state and local who are being paid by the taxpayers and want their kids on the gravy train.  
    6.    Stock market investors who depend upon unrestricted free trade.
    7.    The broad based 401K voters who prize their own self-interest.
    8.    A majority of the ladies of America who are offended by Mr. Trump, his male demeanor, no nonsense personality and fresh thinking.
    9.    The open borders political action crowd with their globalist intentions.
   10.     The mass media, every newspaper and almost every broadcast media are ganging up on Mr. Trump to try and slander him instead of his pro American agenda.

We might as well call Mr. Trump the ultimate underdog!  Only a very large ego that has been responsible for building a very large business in the private sector can and will stand for the people who have been left out of the decision making by our corrupt politicians.  Mr. Trump has never taken a dime from these folks and it scares them to death and they are reacting with predictable name calling fury. 

We voters, are we to be hood winked into a third world America?  Mr. Trump thinks not but should you decide to be stupid at the ballot box, remember, that vote ensured the demise of freedom in America.  Mr. Trump, will not quite, he will shoulder the abuse in order to give all Americans a more prosperous future.  Should the voters of America decide for the status quo corrupt politics, the election will have consequences (Obama words). 

Can you be shamed out of standing up for the future of America?
