Garbage in = Garbage out! @realdonaldtrump

Recently I had a conversation with a “friend” who was voting for Sanders.

Listening to their pros of the man, I listened without interruption.

This person is a college graduate “Millennial”, so I was not surprised when they said they supported Bernie.

“What is wrong with Trump?” I asked.

“Well, he is a fascist!” I could never vote for a fascist!

“ Tell me what exactly is a fascist?” I said.

“Well, I would have to look it up?” She said while reaching for her smartphone.

“I will save you to data, a fascist a dictator that believes not in democracy but total power of the masses.”

“Still think Trump is that?” “Well, I guess not.” she said, “but Bernie is great!”

“Tell me, what is socialism?”

“I would have to look it up?”

Now thinking that this person had a legitimate lawsuit for her college in that they must not have taught them anything, I began to explain what socialism was.

“Well, he is only for the good parts of it, not all those bad parts of it!”

Wringing my hands trying to keep from slapping this person, “there are no good parts, there are only bad!” When you run out of the other guys money the whole system falls apart into anarchy!”

Churchill-Socialism-650 — My cousin… Shameless Plug…maybe…

“Tump is a capitalist and a populist. Do you know what either of those are?”

She was beginning to listen as I explained what they each were and why that is a good thing.

Since Bernie cannot win unless Hillary ends up with a free supply of orange pantsuits, I think I do not have too much to worry about there, however; I also found it fascinating that she did not like her either.

In other conversations with other friends, I discovered that their news was coming from late night comedians and yes, John Stewart was one of them that probably helped get the current POTUS elected.

That thing down there on the lower right coner…yes that…Comedy Central is not the damned news!

People are burned out with the 24-hour news cycle and are tired of the rhetoric. The negative infighting in the GOP must stop!

If you want the news, don’t watch this. This is so far left and opinionated that I would have to check the sky if they said it was blue.

Many have tuned out, but they are confident that Hillary is Crooked. They think fondly of Bill, however, and I think that they are thinking that he will secretly be running things again, and he might be. Maybe Monica can re-apply for a job there.

Bill might be forced to run the country as his wife may have a number across her back and either an orange or striped uniform.

“Can she pardon herself?”

Trump needs to appeal to the female voter, and the way to do that is simple. Kiss some babies, in this case, start with his newest grandchild.

The “Your Fired Guy” Needs some more humanizing moments in front of the camera.

There is a reason that politicians “shake hands and kiss babies.”

Negative ads work for those that are not engaged in the process and believe that someone will truly step on baby chickens and create death panels and do all sorts of mean, nasty things.

If you ran this ad in the right demographic and put a politicians face to it, a number of voters would believe it!

Finding those demographics are now a scientific category in the political science area.

“Who can we tell what lies to that will see the ads and believe them?”

Who are they and what do they watch on TV?

Target those shows, pepper them with poison and let the useful idiots of the world do their bidding.

They may not have a clue what socialism is but if you tell them it is a good thing they will buy it.

The best ads are ads that are funny, catchy or appeal to emotions and not logic.

A simple person narrating an ad is not near as effective as an ad that will make you laugh or make you get pissed.

Ok, this is a funny ad. It makes the point as well as captures more than two seconds of your attention.

Got your attention and made you chuckle.

My Two Cents

My Two Cents @realdonaldtrump

I wanted to pontificate quickly on the latest GOP developments.

Since there is no way for Cruz or Kasich to make it mathematically, they need to drop out as they have each called for the other candidates to do.

Kasich is taking mega dollars from unsavory donors, why?

Cruz too is showing his true colors with his Smarmy lawyer tactics.

That leaves Trump.

Having read his books and followed his family, I tend to believe that he would be the Pit Bull we need in the white house.

He just needs some hair and you have it!

For Cruz and Kasich, not to mention the entire GOP establishment to torpedo their front runner shows their true intentions. Someone is investing millions of dollars towards their campaigns, and my guess is it is because they know that they cannot control Trump, but either of these two would gladly attach strings on their feet and hands and dance the dance of the puppet masters to ride around in Air Force One!

I recently saw Obama dancing with his wife with Beyonce singing just for them. Spending billions of taxpayer money on private vacations is a true dream for some as they can now fulfill their narcissistic fantasy while loving that person in the mirror!

Cruz’s latest bit of garbage is to espouse his ability to fortune tell.

According to Cruz, if Trump gets in, Hillary wins.

hqdefault — “Look at that Face!” Truthfully, are Americans that stupid to vote for this!?

This is the same blowhard that has been spewing his brand of hatred for the last several months saying he is the only one that can beat Trump.

“Cruze, buddy…you lost…!” Save what little dignity you have left and lead by example!

I know and have known many lawyers in my day, most of them deserve the unkind remarks that they get. I will leave it at “Smarmy.”

When a lawyer will look you in the eyes and tell you that it is easier for him to get you off, if you are indeed guilty, that my friends is a subhuman life form. That is where we are today.

The rich power brokers while keeping the middle class under foot promising folks the rich folks money in return for their votes, is tantamount to bribery not to mention that money comes from the middle class, not the rich people that they pointed to.

lobbying-nobody-tells-me-what-do — “I do whatever I want to, when they let me.”

California is such a state that will have little middle class left as they have taxed them out of existence forcing them to flee to other states.

The very wealthy will be served by the very poor, and that mentality is spreading like cancer.

If the GOP cannot see that they need to be working on unifying their base then we have one of two things. Either they are incredibly stupid, or are no different than the progressive political class that currently has us $20T in debt and counting.

Billions @realdonaldtrump

This is too true to be funny.

The next time you hear a politician use the
Word ‘billion’ in a casual manner, think about
whether you want the ‘politicians’ spending
YOUR tax money.
A billion is a difficult number to comprehend,
But one advertising agency did a good job of
Putting that figure into some perspective in
One of its releases.

A.
A billion seconds ago it was 1959.

B.
A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.

C.
A billion hours ago our ancestors were
living in the Stone Age.

D.
A billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.

E.
A billion dollars ago was only
8 hours and 20 minutes,
at the rate our government
is spending it.

While this thought is still fresh in our brain…
let’s take a look at New Orleans …
It’s amazing what you can learn with some simple division.

Louisiana Senator,
Mary Landrieu (D)
was asking Congress for
250 BILLION DOLLARS
To rebuild New Orleans . Interesting number…
What does it mean?

A.
Well .. If you are one of the 484,674 residents of New Orleans
(every man, woman and child)
You each get $516,528

B.
Or… If you have one of the 188,251 homes in
New Orleans , your home gets $1,329,787.

C.
Or… If you are a family of four…
Your family gets $2,066,012.

Mary Landrieu Takes Heat for Spending Public Money on Private Flights – ABC News

The latest method of attack. #DisasterRecovery

As a matter of course, I try not to post too much about computer security, as I am certain that most have seen this before.

We know not to open attachments that are not expected as well as have good anti-virus software updated and running at all times.

This morning I received a different type of threat that I thought worth sharing, so here it is.

With the usual jargon about some sort of violation or someone suing me for something, open the attachment to see what it is, this was different.

The words included were, “for your security we use dropbox for the evidence against you. Please follow the link and respond within 3 days or a summary judgement will be made.”

Of course, the return e-mail address is bogus; the trick is to get me to open an attachment in this case on dropbox. Once downloaded there is no telling what it would do but, most certainly nothing good.

No law enforcement or government agency would work in this way even if you were expecting something from someone in this manner; it would not come in from e-mail.

Unless you are expecting it and the e-mail address is correct only then would I make a call before opening anything as an attachment.

Ransomware is working with hospitals and even government agencies paying the perpetrators, which causes them to continue with more fervor.

You do not want to see this so, practice safe computing.

Practice safe computing which includes a good disaster recovery plan.

Estate planning

Estate planning

Dan was a single guy living at home with his father and working in the family business. When he found out he was going to inherit a fortune when his sickly father died, he decided he needed a wife with which to share his fortune.

One evening at an investment meeting he spotted the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. Her natural beauty took his breath away. “I may look like just an ordinary man,” he said to her, “but in just a few years, my father will die, and I’ll inherit 20 million dollars.” Impressed, the woman obtained his business card and three days later, she became his stepmother.

Women are so much better at estate planning than men.

The balkanization of America @realdonaldtrump

Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today signed an executive order banning all non-essential state travel to North Carolina. The order…bar[s] any such publicly funded travel that is not essential to the enforcement of state law or public health and safety. The ban, which takes effect immediately, follows North Carolina’s enactment of a law, which bars transgender individuals from using restrooms appropriate for their gender identities, excludes sexual orientation and gender identity from state anti-discrimination protections, and prohibits municipalities from extending those protections to LGBT citizens.

Here is an early flexing of the political muscles of the homosexual rights agenda, attempting to undermine the rights of the citizens of North Carolina to organize its rules for bathrooms, by treating the state as a cultural outsider, unworthy of normal official recognition. This may be the beginning of the balkanization of America, that is, the beginning of its division into hostile groups, over the issue of homosexuality. Peter Jones

Maybe I am over simplifying this but…it seems to me that if someone is truly “transgendered,” and was to discretely use the bathroom of choice, nobody is going to demand to see their “junk” to qualify their use of said bathroom. I would suggest that they “act like a lady,” and sit, as to not arouse suspicion.

With that in mind, this is more, much more than the “right” to use the bathroom.

This is about the right to use the women’s locker room, where children may very well be with their mom’s, ergo the rub. Should a young child or women for that matter be subjected to, and possibly exposed to some man, which is anatomically still a man, changing in the same dressing room with women?

I would say in that case, you must use the facility that has been created for your unique plumbing. If there is the slightest possibility that your anatomy might be seen by others then you should use the facilities created for your anatomical gender.

If they want to use the dressing room for the other kind of plumbing, commit to the surgery so if you were exposed in a “public” facility, your junk would match, or at least not stand out. “Pun intended.”

I get that some folks identify as something other than what they were born. The fact that all people start out as a female, and later in the process, the correct chromosomes turn on and off certain “things” causing the fetus to develop into a male or female is not lost on me.

“Ever wonder why men have tits?” That is why.

Therefore, if you were to have an X and a Y chromosome you will develop male characteristics. Two X’s you are a female. The SRY gene on the Y chromosome starts the process of virilization. But, what if?…

What if these chromosomes don’t play by the rules? I know that this will fly in the face of “religious” types which tend to oversimplify things but, scientifically this is a proven concept.

Some folks are indeed genuinely trapped in a body, “vessel” that does not match the wiring in their brain. I concede that and so should you.

Not all gay people are deviants, and not all deviants are gay.

This has happened since man trod the sod and it will continue until the sun runs out of fissionable material.

I also will tell you that there are too many out there, whose motives are less than genuine, and I for one want to protect the rights of all, not just some.

The LGBT folks have a voice and they need to exercise that voice in a manner that is not truculent, as they tend to do, if they would like a fair hearing. I know why they do it; it simply must stop. Discourse such as we have today will not end well and we do not need to pit people against one another as we have been doing since I can remember. It must stop. This country is so divided it is amazing that anything ever gets accomplished.

The “Balkanization” of which he speaks, must necessarily end. In these political times, the social engineers are experts at this for their manipulative purposes. Divide and conquer. Sandra Fluke was the tip of the iceberg to facilitate this imaginary war on women.

BLM, a George Soros funded group is another distraction as was the Occupy movement in 2012; also, George Soros funded.

We are indeed being “Balkanized” on every possible front in every possible way. This is necessary to identify which groups will vote in a particular way so they can then run the demographics and tailor commercials to your particular demographic.

Political science and social engineering is a real deal, and they have gone truly high tech.

There is a software that knows more about you, than you do. The Koch brothers paid to have this created. More Billionaires interfering with the political process is just what we need.

While I am not discounting the LGBT folks and their unique issues, this is nothing but a shiny object to take your attention off the grand scheme of things.

The marionettes are pulling the strings and the LGBT folks like every other group of people are simply pawns and in some cases, useful idiots doing the bidding of the Soros’s and Koch’s of the world.

It was never about $6 birth control pills, and there is no war on women, never was.

Common sense dictates that men cannot go into facilities where young ladies might be in a state of undress but, it does get your emotions going, doesn’t it?

Manipulating people with your emotions is how they do it. That is why they pick and choose what snippets of conversations that the MSM plays, to just piss you off. Once pissed, you are focused on that which pissed you off and no longer are you looking at the larger picture.

Radio talk show hosts are given a talking point planted by some strategist and the useful idiots take to the airwaves manipulating their faithful masses. It is brilliant actually in a sinister way.

With the 24-hour news cycle, it never ends. Turn on the news and the MSM attacks those that will not play ball, in this case Trump. Since Trump cannot be controlled by those that pull the strings; he must be stopped.

A man that takes a million dollars and turns it into Billions is somehow so incompetent, so evil so degenerate that he is not fit to be the president of Delta House! Does anyone actually believe that?

Sadly, the answer is yes… Many will listen to that sound bite from a talking head and digest it.

How many millions, or even Billions of dollars do you think that the anti-trump people will spend?

Do you honestly believe they give a tinkers damn about the country? They care about staying in power and not allowing the system that they have created to be broken by an outsider. Whoever is elected must be stringed up to the marionette and dance upon request as demanded.

Therefore, in this land of OZ I would encourage you to pull back the curtain. If you will give it some thought without the vitriol, you too can see the larger picture.

I choose not to dance upon command or, be a useful idiot.

They are playing #Russian roulette with our #health, in the name of #safety.

When the airports became equipped with the backscatter x-ray equipment talking heads from across the globe touted how safe they were.

Firstly, it is “ionizing radiation” which is not safe and, it virtually strips searches everyone.

That to me was troubling enough.

Their answer for this was that the people in the booth never knew who they were looking at.

“So, if there is a peeping tom watching you bathe or what have you as long as he or she does not know your name; it is ok…” How messed up is that reasoning?

Whistleblowers have come forth to talk about the atmosphere in the booth and here is the killer, they have collected those images and I would guess that since you surrender your ID before you enter the machine, they know who you are.

We were told that they were not saved and of course, that was a lie as well.

Talking heads extolled the virtues of how safe these things were, comparing it to the same amount of radiation one gets at altitude.

Problem… They are comparing apples to nuts!

Cosmic radiation rates compared to sunspot activity. Maybe one should not fly or lay out when the sun is “active!”

While it is true that you are exposed to radiation at altitude, it is cosmic radiation, not ionizing radiation. Skin cancer on pilots is more prevalent than their ground-based counterparts.

The pilots also have to go through these infernal machines so where exactly is the cancer coming from!

The backscatter x-ray penetrates much deeper than they attest to, which could cause all kinds of cancers down the road. Bones and some organs are clearly visible. Common sense would necessarily dictate that if the radiation images it, it could affect it thus, altering its structure or DNA enough to cause mutation.

It was not the health concerns, which brought about change, however; it was people not wanting their rude bits on display for jocular moments among neophytes sequestered in some dark room somewhere.

Along comes a new technology developed by the same company.

“The Human Microwave!”

Yes indeed folks, you are being ordered to stand in a huge microwave oven to once again be virtually strip searched while software supposedly obscures your rude bits allowing the same neophytes to look for anomalies and point them out to the attending TSA agent.

The human body is being bombarded with RF (Radio frequency energy) at the 34ghz spectrum, much faster than the common microwave at 2.1 ghz. Actually this millimeter technology is anywhere between 30 and 300 GHZ. This energy can destroy DNA quite nicely! It is not too healthy for people’s eyes either in that cataracts will most probably be on the rise if they are not already.

Without the technical jargon, energy that hits living tissue generates heat. The eyes have little way to diffuse that heat ergo cataracts are a real possibility. Testing these technologies on animals found that male rabbits were temporarily sterilized, as the testes were also unable to dissipate the heat due to blood flow issues. They too were also partially blinded by cataracts.

Cooked Nuts! Price you pay to fly!

Rocky mountain oysters aka bull balls deep fried.

This new technology still produces a vivid 3D image of your naked body. Software that is supposed to target irregularities is supposedly employed to allay any concerns however; every now and then, an image of some celebrity makes its way around the internet that was indeed taken with one of these devices.

Not only are we trading our privacy for “safety” we are trading our health for it as well.

The lies and downright corruption has to stop! Someone needs to find a way to take money out of the equation before we truly see “hope and change.”

(That would be the Washington Cartel…)

We need to look at other countries to see how they are doing it “safety” and investigate all options.

Groping kids, women, and what have you in the name of safety is not it.

Radiating and or exposing healthy people to radiation of different sorts, is not it.

Dealing with the problem in a direct fashion is most probably the solution and the next president had best have some balls, as that is what we need to see happen.

The magnetometer along with checking inside carry-on stuff, along with profiling is most probably the answer. I know; it takes some modicum of intelligence to actually profile but hey, if you want more than minimum wage, learn a damned skill worthy of it!

Conservative Moment @medvedshow @wellsreport @theblaze @ewerickson

A lot of people have brought up the fact that they won’t vote for Trump if he’s the eventual nominee. I just want to put something in perspective…

**With Eric being as smart as he comes off one has to wonder if he is not in really in favor of the Democrats practicing Social Engineering.**

Justice Scalia’s seat is vacant. Ginsberg is 82 years old, Kennedy is 79, Breyer is 77, and Thomas is 67. Nowadays, the data shows that the average age of a Supreme Court retirement or death occurs after 75. These are 5 vacancies that will likely come up over the next 4-8 years. The next President will have the power to potentially create a 7-2 Supreme Court skewed in their ideology.

Think about that… 7-2. If the next President appoints 5 young justices, it will guarantee control of the Supreme Court for an entire generation. And 7-2 decisions will hold up much more over time than 5-4 decisions which are seemed to be lacking in mandate.

Hillary has made it clear she will use the Supreme Court to go after the 2nd Amendment. She has literally said that the Supreme Court was wrong in its Heller decision stating that the Court should overturn and remove the individual right to keep and bear arms. Period.

Everyone saying that they won’t vote for one candidate or the other if they are the GOP nominee, please realize this: If Hillary Clinton wins and gets to make these appointments, you likely will never see another Conservative victory at the Supreme Court level for the rest of your life. Ever.

If you are a Conservative, a vote for anyone BUT the GOP nominee, whomever that will be (or a vote for no one), is a vote for Hillary Clinton.

The truth of the matter is, that it should not make any difference who the president is when it comes to the Supreme Court. Justice is supposed to be blind. They interpret the Constitution as it is and apply the laws accordingly. When however a country is ruled by activist judges as we have now. We have a problem.

Your children will pay the price for our mistakes if we pick another liberal who wants to transform our country into a third world country.

Vote as if the future of the country depends upon it.

Whoever the GOP puts up there has to be the one that wins. We know Hillary’s history and we know what she has said that she will do. With the power of activist judges on the supreme court, she could pull it off leaving Americans defenseless against the rising tide of aggression from those that would seek to harm us.

If you happen to not like whoever the candidate is for the conservative party, hold your nose and vote anyway. Many went to war and died for their country and many of those did not want to go. Suck it up and do the right thing!

Am Radio kit from China

Cheap Chinese Radio Kit

As a radio enthusiast from way, back I thought that it might be fun to build a radio from a kit.

A quick search of eBay turned up a simple six transistor kit for less than $10.

I was interested in a kit that was as close to the radio’s we had in the 1960’s which would leave out anything with integrated circuits.

Ordering the kit it was about 3 weeks before it arrived and another 2 months before I opened it.

Not wild about the color of the case nor the front plate, but this is a kit, not a work of art; right?

notice the 2 transistor places marked v4

The board looks pretty straight forward.

Problem 1… the instruction are all in Mandarin.

T2, T3 and T4 Are not interchangeable.

Those character by the purple blotch are the designations of which are which.

On another part of the document is a chart for the resisitor color code. Since I know what it is I can work it backwards and figure out what the colors should be.

There you go…the primer as it were. BBROYGBVGW

Now working this backward…The IF cans were identified.

T5 is the audio output transformer and it too has a key. Notice the white dot on the board and the slightly raised up bump on the housing of the transformer.

The rest of this was simply to populate the board correctly and see if you guessed right.

I noticed on the circuit board that there were traces that were not completed for some reason. If I could read Mandarin I am guessing that possibly those are stages at which you could do tests before completing the entire circuit.

Notice the C and the D… There is also an A and a B which are not completed either.

Over to the left of the board you can see two of the incomplete circuit paths.

If you look carefully at the parts layout you will notice that V4 and V5 should really be V5 and V 6 as there are two V4’s wich in our nomenclature would be Q4,5 and 6.

So not only are the instructions worthless to those who cannot interpret Mandarine the printing is flawed.

My review and guess of this “kit” is that someone bought a bunch of them because they were dirt cheap as the printing was flawed.

The kit does not use a detector diode which causes it to lack sensitivity. My guess is that they are using the driver Transistor as part of the detector as well.

Since these are silicon transistors and not germanium that too hinders the performance as a detector.

Once built you must insert a 455Khz signal with the variable capacitor open and tune the black If can for maximum sound output.

Using a non-metallic tuning tool you can then tune for your radio stations. The two adjustments on the back of the variable cap work in conjunction with the oscillator and the last IF can to set the stations on the dial accordingly.

Even though this kit was cheap, unless you have some pretty good radio savvy, I would take a pass.

As an FYI the speaker is very tinny sounding.

I took a short video of it working but, the video type is not compliant with WordPress. Sorry about that.

#Trump and things that go bump in the night. @RealDonaldTrump @medvedshow @hughhewitt @DennisPrager @glennbeck @theblaze

One of the simplest occupations in the world must be “radio talk show host.”

I often have the radio on when I am working at things that require less intellect and more mechanical aptitude. The Trump phenomenon is nothing more than ratings for every talking head to pontificate about.

Not shocking are the talking heads on liberal leaning sites who extol the virtues of Hillary Clinton, and how wonderful she is. I wish I were making that up…. I swear Rachel Maddow is more in love with Hillary than Bill.

Trump on the other hand is no media darling. There is not one outlet that has anything good to say about him. Today I heard one talking head repeating things that some supposed butler that Trump had once said. This talking head was rather vitriolic with his callers regarding Trump. As if, his opinion trumps theirs (pun intended). Oh wait he has a radio show so his must be more germane, more salient more accurate than his stupid listeners do.

How smug they must feel spewing out their “intelligence,” casting perls to the swine.

How is the view from your ivory tower boys? Are you going to toss down some cake to the peons, the little people whose only voice is their vote!

If you people do not think you are doing this, I challenge you to listen to yourselves.

Let me ask the talking heads this, have you read Trumps books? Does it mean nothing to you that this man took $1 million and turned it into $10 Billion while our president has spent more money in 7 years, than all of the presidents that came before him combined have?

I firmly believe that Trump is the ultimate tactician. I think what he does and what he says is more deliberate than one might think. His 2 billion in free airtime is either genius, or a rather stupid media hoping that it will bring ratings.

Do you think we can really afford four more years of Obama via Hillary? That is what it will be if she is elected and, you people are giving them ample ammunition.

Cruz is a politician and a Lawyer and comes off as Smarmy. Sorry Ted, that is how you come off. If nobody has the guts to tell you the truth, I do.

Rubio did as well… I do think that his exit speech was praiseworthy, and I really appreciated the HairforceOne line. Rubio has a sense of humor. I look for him to reappear one day, much wiser and more experienced.

Kasich is a politician and says what he thinks will resonate.

Bernie is a lovable old white person, ex hippy who has limited math skills, and not much of a grasp on reality. If I were not so well informed; I might vote for the man… He talks a good story and he makes you feel good.

Hillary is an oxymoron, an enigma…she is in fact the supreme example of “establishment.” Hillary is self-serving and at her advanced age, one has to wonder “why?” Never mind the fact that she should be wearing an orange jumpsuit, and sitting behind bars; why Hillary? Why spend your last years here on this earth in a job that sucks the life out of you? I am reminded of the Dark Crystal, with the big scary bird like things that sucked the life out of the Gelflings. The office of President is the granddaddy of life sucking entities. Is power that much of an aphrodisiac?

Trump perhaps is the biggest enigma of them all. Here is a person who by his own words turned $one million into $ten billion. Here is a person who has by his own words “ an easy life.”

I do think that he might have an issue with prevarication. It would appear that exaggerating the story for entertainment sake, is part of the fabric of Donald Trump.

As politicians go however; he should fit right in as I have yet to see one that does not have an issue with the truth. They will tell you what you want to hear for your vote, and then forget about you.

All of the stump speeches will have some story with an emotional hook, they will be about as sincere as you are when you tell the police officer that just gave you a ticket to, have a nice day.

There will be much more social engineering between now and November. As it always seems to be, at the end of the day, Americans will have to hold their noses and vote for the lesser of two evils.

The “conservative” talk show hosts will have much more fodder to stir up the folks over, and we will go on. MSNBC and to a lesser extent CNN will be bringing you stories nightly on one of two things. They will be either How great Hillary is, or how lame and incompetent the “republican” person is. That is what they do. Fox on the other hand is the Ying to their Yang. I am beginning to see that Fox too has an agenda that appears self-serving.

The issues however, will probably not be addressed, by any administration.

Nobody is going to round up 12 million illegal aliens.

Someone might build a wall but Mexico will not likely pay for it.

More companies will leave the United States, leaving fewer and fewer jobs for the people here.

All of the candidates are painting the issues with broad-brush strokes hoping that the American people do not care enough to examine the facts of what they are saying. If Jessie Waters is correct, many are clueless and simply going with the wind.

Ted says he will abolish the IRS… Then what Ted? Who is going to collect the Taxes? Do you know how many people you will be putting out of work?

He is going to tear to shreds the Iran deal… Really…maybe you should read it first.. Maybe you can tear it up all you want but in the end, their copy will be just as binding as the pile of scraps on the oval office floor.

Ted is going to repeal Obama Care… Do you think you can just stop a speeding train that is heading downhill with sheer will?

They are great sound bites Ted… Some of us have a brain.

Kasich has said nothing that I can remember that he will do. He does lead one to believe that when god was creating the earth, he was there telling him how to do it.

Trump has tangible assets that he has built.

Does he have skeletons in his closet, probably?

Is he a worse candidate than anyone on the democratic side? No…

Immigration

I do think that they all have it wrong. If someone were to think outside the box, they would build a bridge to Mexico. My take on this is simple… Help them fix whatever is wrong in their country so they can compete effectively in “free trade.” We don’t have Canadians rushing our borders by the tens of thousands; why? Canada embraces laws and capitalism, and even though they are more socialistic than we are, they still have an economy that works for them.

There must be a way to help Mexico get to a state that Americans want to go there or at the very least the Mexicans want to stay there. We have 12 million illegal aliens because their country needs help. Building a big beautiful wall with a big beautiful door is not really the answer now, is it?

Do you realize how far 10 Billion dollars would go to assist the Mexican people to gain control of their country, making it a nice place to live, work and visit!

Mr. Trump, How…how are you going to Make America Great Again? How are you going to “bring the jobs back? Some details rather than platitudes would really be nice. That is what I think are some of your largest detractors and critics. The devil is in the details and I for one would like some.

Not my Monkeys, not my Circus but maybe it is time to speak up.
