June 17th, 2016 at 9:43 pm&lt;/b&gt;

She is quite right in recommending that one should look around and not at the gov, for solutions or succor. 

But it&#039;ll take some time for Americans to fully accept that. They are used to elections and all that jazz, whenever problems happen. It is only when they see the system for what it truly is, that they can begin to see the Left and Islam for what it truly is. It&#039;s all inter connected at various levels.

If they had Awakened earlier, they wouldn&#039;t have become so confused. Trump, for good or bad, has confused people. That&#039;s because they should have been disregarding and bypassing government since 2008. They shouldn&#039;t have waited until 2014, 2015, 2016 to wake the hell up and start thinking about changing the system. Trying to change the system from inside the system is the Trump offer of hope. But people who awakened recently, really want that offer of hope. People who awakened many years ago, however, no longer have the emotional vulnerability for that kind of stuff. That phase has passed, so to speak.

The question comes to be, in the end, whether the US System can be reformed or changed from the inside. Or whether it cannot be.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&lt;i&gt;&quot;Aside from the case against Clinton being overwrought with explanations of doom over the course of the next four years&quot;&lt;/i&gt; 

Overwrought? A fine example of suicidal denial. Illegal immigration, Muslim migration, disastrous trade policies and foreign disasters will at least continue and quite possibly accelerate under Hillary. Cultural attacks will continue. Attacks upon the 2nd amendment and 1st (hate speech legislation) will continue. Single payer will be imposed. Etc, etc... on every front the left is &quot;fundamentally transforming&quot; the country. Imagining that the tipping point will come at some conveniently distant point in the future is whistling past the graveyard.

Not “acceptable” just simply the &lt;i&gt;only viable&lt;/i&gt; alternative to Clinton &lt;i&gt;because&lt;/i&gt;... both a GOP convention reversal (within the rules) and support for a third party... &lt;i&gt;result&lt;/i&gt; in Hillary&#039;s election.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&lt;b&gt;Your wariness is self-satisfied suicide in the end. But you are killing me and mine too, with your wariness. The same boat problem.&lt;/b&gt;

It&#039;s a kind of displacement effect. They can&#039;t do anything about their anger for Leftists and Islamic Jihad, so they pick on politicians. But only certain kinds of politicians and voters.

Frog&#039;s potential allies aren&#039;t the ones killing him. He just thinks they are, because all his hate and anger developed against the Left needs a receptacle. So once they form wagons around Trump, the self identity weakness in human nature thinks anyone who opposes them are their enemies. But, of course, that&#039;s the exact same flaw the Left and Islam uses to enslave humans for evil.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Frog:

And I responded that if you have read my posts you&#039;d realize that my immersion in &quot;that culture&quot; was to reject it, even when I was a Democrat.

That statement stands. Your suggestion shows a lack of attention to what I&#039;ve written, now and in the past. Now, I don&#039;t expect you to have memorized every post I&#039;ve ever written.  But I would hope that by this time you would understand the general tone and my general attitude.  I have never been a leftist; I have always rejected that.

					<description><![CDATA[&lt;em&gt;&quot;All of your wariness about Trump is a boost to Hillary’s election. Wariness does not drive people into voting for those of whom they are wary.
Your wariness is self-satisfied suicide in the end. But you are killing me and mine too, with your wariness. The same boat problem.&quot;&lt;/em&gt; - Frog

The problem with this statement is the implied assumption that anyone wary of Trump is &quot;for&quot; Clinton.  Emphatically Not So!

Aside from the case against Clinton being overwrought with explanations of doom over the course of the next four years, some keep arguing that Trump is somehow &quot;acceptable&quot; (despite his acknowledged flaws and the risk that comes with them) as a realistic alternative to Clinton.  

It is an argument resting on an assumption that is soon to become self-fulfilling - that the choice is a binary one.  

Want to stop Clinton and avoid the problems with Trump - we have two choices:

1)  Support a GOP convention reversal (within the rules).
2)  Support a third party.

Short of a conservative third party (or a GOP convention reversal), we should go for Libertarian for POTUS.  

Far from a perfect choice, but one that could conceivably stalemate the election (preventing 270 ec votes from anyone), if not win (there might be enough Dems to make up for the hard core Trump supporters, or those clinging to the hope that Trump would change).  The LP prospects might even be better for a win than a conservative third party.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&lt;em&gt;&quot;we (hate) Hillary but that it is also possible to be vary wary of Trump. Trump makes big brash statements that he then sort of walks back, but because he never does his homework, never investigates issues, you never know how far he will walk.&quot;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt; - expat

Well said.  

I wouldn&#039;t express it as &quot;hate&quot; (for either Trump or Clinton - as I wish them no harm, and wish to be as clear headed about them as possible), but as particularly bad choices as head of our government.

You&#039;ve hit at one of the core issues with Trump... that nobody can truly know where he will go on any one issue.

You ask about controlling Trump.  Many wary GOP, including Ryan were sweet talked into supporting Trump, presumably with the assumption that their holding back was going to commit Trump to some kind of change.  He hasn&#039;t, and he won&#039;t.
http://www.investors.com/politics/columnists/charles-krauthammer-trump-is-running-as-trump-surprise/

If the GOP cannot manage to control him, or even have him be more disciplined and consistent in his stances, there is little hope they can manage Trump once he has the power of the Presidency in his hands.&lt;/em&gt;]]></description>
